Sutter Health Collaborating With Mobile Phone Program

Sutter Health is working with the mobile phone application iTriage to provide patients with information about nearby hospitals and physicians in its network. The program, which is available for download at no cost, provides information about a physician's certification, hours, referral networks and accepted health plans. The application eventually aims to provide data on health care providers' patient satisfaction ratings, quality of care scores and appointment wait times.
