The AMN Cares app allows individual patients and members to participate in a secure video call with their physician, nurse, care manager, or other medical staff via a personal device such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Calls may include reviewing hospital discharge instructions, medications, or other health care treatment plans, which can also be accessed from HealthKit and CareKit or even having a follow up medical appointment with the patient’s physician.

Patients and members receive the invitation to the AMN Cares application from their medical provider or health plan via email or SMS text. The email or SMS text includes a link to access the app and patients care team. Links can only be sent from medical providers or health plans through our secure platform and should only be sent after the patient or member has granted consent to be contacted.

All video calls between individuals and medical staff are secure, encrypted, and fully HIPAA compliant.

For best performance and to conserve data plan usage, we recommended that the patient’s device be connected to the internet via a WiFi connection.
