Loyal is an organization centered on experience and building a platform that allows consumers to make meaningful decisions when it comes to healthcare. We deeply understand providers, locations, services, appointments, business rules, and moreover, we understand patients -- who they are, the preferred method of communication, upcoming appointments, lapsed appointments, outstanding bills, health risks, and more. With this intelligence, our platform fuels highly relevant and personalized experiences across all mediums (website, email, voice…) allowing patients to get healthy, stay healthy, and have a better relationship with the health care provider.

Summary

At Loyal, we're transforming how healthcare organizations manage their online reputation and patient engagement. Our unified platform processes millions of patient interactions across directory listings, reviews, and feedback systems, directly impacting how patients discover and choose their healthcare providers.
