Phunware Announces Contract Expansion with VHC Health

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Phunware, Inc. (NASDAQ: PHUN) (the “Company”), a fully-integrated enterprise cloud platform for mobile that provides products, solutions, data and services for brands worldwide, announced today a contract expansion to extend its Location Based Services (LBS) to the 250,000 square foot Outpatient Pavilion at VHC Health and integrate TIBA Parking Systems with VHC Health’s mobile digital front door.

VHC Health provides exceptional medical services as our region’s community health system. In 2022, the Hospital was selected for an 11th consecutive Healthgrades Outstanding Patient Experience Award™ and a 21st consecutive ‘A’ grade from The Leapfrog Group. Virginia Hospital Center is a 453-bed not-for-profit teaching facility and designated as a Magnet® hospital by the American Nurses Credentialing Center. VHC Health earned the 2022 College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) 2022 Digital Health Most Wired recognition as a certified level 9 and is a proud member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network – a national network of independent healthcare organizations.

“The leadership at VHC Health has embraced the importance of a mobile strategy in order to deliver an exceptional patient experience,” said Cody Wimbish, Phunware VP of Program Management & Customer Success. “Since we take a platform approach to tech-enabling the continuum of care, we are able to easily extend VHC Health’s capabilities as they grow and are thrilled to not only support their new Outpatient Pavilion, but also seamlessly integrate parking with their mobile application to help remove an additional layer of friction when patients are on-site.”

Phunware’s digital front door not only delivers feature-rich mobile solutions for healthcare providers, but also offers seamless integrations with third-parties such as Electronic Health Records (EHRs). This holistic approach eliminates the pain of having to manage dozens of point solutions while simultaneously offering staff, patients and visitors a far more cohesive and integrated healthcare experience. Capabilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Mobile engagement for contextual notifications, including appointment reminders
  • Real-time “blue dot” indoor positioning, including mapping, navigation and wayfinding
  • Beacon Maintenance to ensure optimal LBS performance
  • Epic MyChart integration with Face ID biometric login medical record access
