Trella Health Expands Hospital Discharge Solutions

In a strategic move to enhance patient care and streamline healthcare operations, Trella Health has officially integrated Repisodic, a leading hospital discharge automation platform, into its offerings. This merger promises to transform the way health systems manage the critical transition from hospital to post-acute care, emphasizing the need for intelligent and patient-centered workflows.

As hospitals face increasing pressure to lower inpatient lengths of stay and reduce readmissions, the significance of efficient discharge processes cannot be overstated. Scott Tapp, CEO of Trella Health, highlighted the current challenges: "Health systems are under growing pressure to lower inpatient length of stay, improve discharge adherence, and reduce readmissions — all while managing complex patient needs and shrinking margins." The addition of Repisodic to Trella Health’s existing solutions aims to address these issues directly.

Addressing Critical Gaps in Patient Transition

Research from Trella Health's 2025 Post-Acute Care Industry Trend Report indicates that following home health discharge instructions drastically affects readmission rates. Patients adhering to instructions showed a 12.7% 30-day readmission rate compared to 15.1% for those who didn't, highlighting a critical gap that can be bridged with improved care transition strategies.

The utilization of Repisodic's automation platform will enable health systems to better navigate hospital discharges. By integrating with Electronic Health Records (EHRs), Repisodic facilitates timely communication between hospitals, patients, and post-acute care providers, streamlining discharges and thereby accelerating patient recovery.

Tyler Rardin, General Manager at Trella Health, remarked on the challenges faced in the traditional discharge process: "Hospital discharge remains one of the most challenging and disconnected points in the patient journey, with many organizations still relying on paper lists, faxes, and verbal handoffs that create avoidable inefficiencies." This merger represents not just an addition to Trella’s portfolio, but a necessary evolution toward cohesive patient care and operational efficiency.

Achievements and Future Goals

Founded in 2017, Repisodic has made substantial strides in enhancing hospital discharge operations, with clients reporting reduced length of stay and increased referrals to high-quality post-acute providers. James Halbert, Performance Manager at Yale New Haven Health, shared the impact of utilizing Repisodic: "We’ve seen a full day reduction in inpatient length of stay for Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) discharges, translating to tens of thousands of patient days saved each year and delivering millions of dollars in measurable financial benefit."

Now, with the merger, Trella Health will enhance its capabilities, utilizing data insights to support communication with case managers and ensuring real-time visibility into patient needs. This approach not only aids in resource allocation but also aligns closely with payer contracts and authorizations, streamlining the entire discharge process.

Mike Cwalinski, co-founder and CEO of Repisodic, emphasized the mission behind their establishment: to facilitate a smoother navigation of post-acute care at the point of hospital discharge. He noted, "Joining Trella allows us to scale that mission and drive even greater impact across the care continuum."

With the expansion enabled by the merger, Trella Health now services over 50 health systems across the nation, connecting with more than 1,000 post-acute organizations and over 30 acute and post-acute EHR systems. This integrated network lays a strong foundation for real-time collaboration across various care settings.

In line with its broader strategy, Trella Health is building one of the most comprehensive healthcare data lakes available, using AI-driven insights to enhance workflows, improve care coordination, and drive superior patient outcomes. This merger not only positions Trella Health at the forefront of healthcare innovation but also reaffirms its commitment to improving the patient experience during one of the most critical times in their care journey.
