Mountain View Healthcare Center Joins the Health Gorilla™, Inc. Online Marketplace

Mountain View Healthcare is the First Skilled Nursing Facility to Join Marketplace

SUNNYVALE, Ca., September 17, 2014 – Health Gorilla, Inc., the first online healthcare marketplace to connect doctors and clinicians with over 9,000+ diagnostic labs and 35,000+ radiology centers, and Mountain View Healthcare Center have announced a new multi-year agreement which extends Mountain View Healthcare Center’s services through the Health Gorilla Marketplace.  As a premier skilled nursing facility in the Bay Area, Mountain View Healthcare Center serves Northern California with 122 Medicare and Medicaid certified beds.

“Mountain View Healthcare Center is the first skilled nursing facility (SNF) to formally join the Health Gorilla marketplace,” said Steven Yaskin, Chief Executive Officer.  “Our marketplace now enables partners such as Mountain View Healthcare Center to place orders for diagnostic lab and radiology center services electronically.  Test results can be shared immediately with both Mountain View Healthcare Center and their ambulatory physicians.  Results and related communications are delivered directly to physician’s desktop computer, iPhone®, or iPad mini™ instead of paper and fax transmission.  The physician can also respond with instructions directly to the SNF staff.  This eliminates a significant portion of the faxing, phone calls, and delay.  Communications are improved substantially. ”

Mountain View Healthcare Center primarily focuses on short-term rehabilitation providing 24-Hour skilled nursing care and daily intensive rehabilitative services -- Physical Therapy (PT), Occupational Therapy (OT) and Speech Therapy (ST).  Their facilities include two designated short-term rehabilitation wings consisting of 44 semi-private beds.  Mountain View Healthcare Center is also one of the only Skilled Nursing Facilities in the Bay Area with a designated 32-bed Alzheimer’s Dementia Unit.  Further, Mountain View Healthcare Center has a licensed geriatric nurse practitioner on staff.

"Mountain View Healthcare Center is proud to have been serving the citizens of this area for decades.  We specialize in providing a variety of rehabilitation and skilled nursing services onsite to help individuals recover from surgery, injury or serious illness," said Shakira Dalal, Administrator, Mountain View Healthcare Center.  “Digital health services such as the Health Gorilla marketplace enable us to improve the communications between our ambulatory physicians, our administrative staff and the diagnostic vendors that support us.  We believe that this has the potential over time to provide benefits in patient care, improve outcomes and reduce readmissions.  We’re very pleased to be the first skilled nursing facility in California to announce our partnership with Health Gorilla and bring the marketplace to our community.”

E3/Alpine Healthcare Management Joins the Health Gorilla™, Inc. Online Marketplace

E3 Healthcare is the First Outpatient Surgery Center Management Company to Join Marketplace

SUNNYVALE, Ca., September 11, 2014 – Health Gorilla, Inc., the first online healthcare marketplace to connect doctors and clinicians with more than 9,000+ diagnostic labs and 35,000+ radiology centers, and E3/Alpine Healthcare Management (E3 Healthcare) have announced a new multi-year agreement that extends E3 Healthcare’s services through the Health Gorilla Marketplace.  As a leading outpatient surgery center management company, E3 Healthcare serves Northern California with five major surgical center facilities in the Bay Area that span the Peninsula from Campbell to Daly City.

“We are proud to announce that E3 Healthcare has joined our marketplace” said Steven Yaskin, Chief Executive Officer.  “El Camino Ambulatory Surgery Center is the first to become part of the Health Gorilla Marketplace.  Our marketplace now enables partners such as E3 Healthcare to receive and review important patient information, process diagnostic orders electronically to their vendor diagnostic labs, and then deliver results rapidly and securely.  We have now automated all of this process for surgeons who choose to use the E3 Healthcare facilities and the administrative teams that support them.”

E3 Healthcare’s five centers are exclusively focused on outpatient surgery.  Same-day surgery requires patient information to be securely and rapidly delivered to the E3 Healthcare facilities.  All of this must be efficiently managed from point of order through delivery of results back to the surgical center and ultimately each physician involved.  The Health Gorilla marketplace now provides the capability for each surgeon to securely deliver patient records to E3 Healthcare along with necessary insurance information set-up prior to surgery, and then provides additional capability to track and manage diagnostic testing post-surgery so that results are rapidly delivered back to the physician quickly and efficiently.  All of this capability is now integrated within the Health Gorilla Marketplace.

"Health Gorilla’s Marketplace benefits our doctors, our administrative team and our patients.  We’re very pleased to be the first surgical center management company in California to partner with Health Gorilla to deliver the advanced capabilities of their marketplace,” noted E3 Healthcare Director of Marketing Karen Jansen.
