Senior React/Elixir Engineer

Company Description Traditionally, healthcare software has been chronically closed-source. This has forced health systems into a battle of competing priorities — patient experience, clinical workflows, affiliate referrals, business outcomes, marketing initiatives. No one system can do it all, yet they aren’t made to integrate or communicate with each other. This leaves health systems with big gaps to try and piece together themselves on the back end. At blockit, we are designing a better way forward in healthcare — with open access, seamless integration, and the ability to platform any workflow. Unlike other closed border, walled garden solutions, blockit is built to play well with others. Our proprietary integration engine bridges the gap between patients, providers, data, systems, and departments. Since our founding in 2016, we’ve formed partnerships with and designed solutions for some of the largest and most reputable health systems — especially in the areas of patient scheduling and closed-loop referral management. By using blockit to platform their existing workflows, and to design new ones, these health systems have meaningfully improved access to care for their patients, evidenced by these two examples: At a large for-profit health system, ED referral follow-through rates increased from 25% to 82% At a large not-for-profit health system, the time to schedule a patient in the call center dropped from 8 min to under 2 min. If you want to connect it, we can do it. We are built to bring systems together — not keep them apart.
