Asparia operates within the healthcare technology sector, providing a patient engagement platform designed to automate and streamline communication between healthcare providers and their patients. The company was founded in 2019 by Kamal Anand, who also serves as the CEO, and is headquartered in Saratoga, California. Before its acquisition, Asparia secured an undisclosed amount in a Seed funding round on April 7, 2020, with Dreamit leading the investment.
A significant milestone in the company's history was its acquisition by Intrado Corporation, a global technology services firm, on December 22, 2020. This event marked a strategic move for Intrado to enhance its healthcare communication offerings. Asparia's business model is based on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription, generating revenue by providing healthcare organizations with its communication tools. The company's target clients include health systems, hospitals, medical groups, and Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs).
The core of Asparia's offering is a chatbot and communication platform that integrates directly with major Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. This integration allows for automated, two-way, and interactive communication with patients. Key features include sending actionable appointment reminders, managing no-show follow-ups, facilitating staff-patient live texting, and handling patient recall for preventative care. The platform is designed to unburden hospital staff by automating workflows, such as identifying patients who need screenings, tests, or vaccinations and prompting them with interactive notifications. A notable feature is its multilingual capability, supporting communication via SMS in over 100 languages and interactive voice calls in 20 languages, catering to diverse patient populations.
