Prestigious international annual awards program recognizes standout digital health and medical technology innovations and companies
WellSky, a global health and community care technology and services company, today announced that WellSky Enterprise Referral Manager has been named “Best Home Health Care Solution” in the ninth annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies, and products in the global digital health and medical technology market. This is the sixth consecutive year that WellSky has been honored by MedTech Breakthrough.
The WellSky Enterprise Referral Manager solution transforms referral, intake, and customer relationship management processes for home health, hospice, and other home-based care agencies by consolidating inbound referrals originating from nearly 2,000 hospitals using WellSky CarePort solutions, e-Fax, and direct secure messaging within a single dashboard, centralizing referral activity in one place. The solution surfaces information needed to evaluate referrals, such as payer and insurance details, services requested, discharge date, ZIP code, and more. This allows intake staff members to spend less time clicking between solutions, enabling them to make quicker decisions and respond to referrals faster directly within their workflow.
"Home health and hospice agencies depend on referrals for growth but the process of managing referrals is complicated, with the data within referrals often scattered, forcing intake staff to open several documents, work in multiple systems, and piece together the information to make decisions,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “WellSky Enterprise Referral Manager helps agencies transform referral and intake processes, putting them on a path for efficient, effective, and sustainable growth. We’re pleased to award WellSky with the ‘Best Home Health Care Solution’ for 2025.”
WellSky Enterprise Referral Manager also supports referral task creation and assignment across intake, sales, and marketing roles, enabling intake coordinators to track the status of required pre-visit activities and begin care in a timely fashion. Additionally, the solution uses patient information received within referrals to create or update patient records within the WellSky electronic health record (EHR), helping to eliminate workflow bottlenecks, prevent duplicate EHR records, and improve intake throughput.
“An agency’s ability to quickly respond to referrals is critical to operations, affecting staffing, growth, and high-quality care delivery. Our solution improves the entire referral process with a centralized view, integrated referral data sent into the EHR, and synchronized referral activities between agency roles,” said Bill Miller, chairman and CEO at WellSky. “We’re grateful to MedTech Breakthrough for this recognition and we’ll continue to deliver cutting-edge solutions that improve outcomes through efficiency, intelligence, and connection.”
The MedTech Breakthrough Awards program celebrates excellence and innovation in the health and medical technology industry, recognizing the companies and solutions driving meaningful progress and improving patient care. Spanning a wide range of categories—including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, Electronic Health Records, Virtual Care, Medical Devices, Medical Data & Privacy, and beyond—the awards highlight the groundbreaking work that is transforming the healthcare landscape.
This year, the program received more than 4,500 nominations from leading companies and startups in more than 18 countries, showcasing the global impact and momentum of the digital healthcare industry today.
