Kouper Health builds a health technology platform focused on post-discharge care, helping patients transition from hospital or urgent care back home. It uses SMS and phone calls to connect patients with care options, coordinate appointments, send reminders, and arrange transportation. The product works by automating and guiding communication between patients, healthcare providers, and payers to ensure patients follow care plans after discharge. Kouper Health differentiates itself by concentrating specifically on the transition-of-care period and by offering multi-channel outreach, appointment scheduling, and transportation coordination to streamline the process and reduce gaps in care. The company’s goal is to improve patient experience and health outcomes during the critical post-discharge phase and to lower hospital readmissions while increasing the efficiency of care delivery.
