Every Patient.Every Discharge.Every Family.

With Mira, more patients can be screened, triaged, and followed up — helping teams connect patients to social care before discharge becomes readmission.

The Hospital Problem

Social Need Impacts Readmission.

Across community hospitals, patients with unmet housing, food, transportation, and behavioral health needs often experience higher rates of ED revisits and 30-day readmissions. Medical social workers know who they are — they just don't have the bandwidth to reach them all before discharge.

Housing

Unmet housing needs can disrupt post-acute care and recovery plans.

Food

Food insecurity complicates chronic disease management like CHF and diabetes.

Transport

Lack of transportation leads to missed follow-up appointments and delayed care.

What Mira Does

Mira supports the patient journey

At Admission

Mira can support SDOH screening for admissions and ED registrations — bedside tablet, family phone, or patient portal — in any language.

Discharge Planning

Positive screens can be organized into a triaged work queue for medical SWs, case managers, and care coordinators with clinical context.

Post-Discharge

Mira can conduct follow-up to confirm medication pickup, transportation, and follow-up appointments, and close the referral loop.

Fictional name and organization

"I'd start each shift with a list of patients to see. SDOH screening was supposed to happen on every admission, but we rarely got to all of them. The patients I worried about most were the ones I knew we'd see again in two weeks."

SDOH screening incomplete due to time constraints

Post-discharge follow-up handled inconsistently

No closed-loop referral tracking

Discharge assessments typed manually, often after-hours
