Discharge Coordination
Coordinate discharge rides from hospital beds to home, SNF, rehab, LTAC, or other care settings through an EHR-embedded workflow that cuts phone-based scheduling and accelerates bed turnover.
VectorCare turns hospital discharge transport from a phone-and-fax bottleneck into an automated, EHR-embedded workflow. Case managers can schedule discharge rides in under 3 minutes, route requests to contracted NEMT and ambulance providers, track ETAs in real time, and reduce bed delays that drain capacity, staff time, and revenue.

Automated workflows for discharge scheduling, dispatch, vendor compliance, EHR integration, analytics, and transport network performance.

CEO and Founder
David Emanuel is the CEO and Founder of VectorCare, a company he has led for over 14 years in the healthcare industry. He founded VectorCare after recognizing that patient logistics was being treated as a scheduling problem when it is actually an infrastructure problem. Under his leadership, VectorCare has grown to serve 2,500+ healthcare facilities and process millions of patient logistics transactions. He writes a weekly newsletter called 'The Dispatch,' sharing insights on how to move patients better - no sales pitches, just patterns, data, and questions worth your time. David's mission is to build infrastructure that supports the people doing the work of healthcare, believing that patient logistics is no longer a back-office function but foundational infrastructure.
VectorCare is a cloud-based patient logistics platform that helps hospitals schedule, dispatch, and track discharge transportation digitally. Case managers can launch requests from inside Epic, connect other EHRs through HL7 and FHIR APIs, pre-populate patient details, route the trip to contracted NEMT or ambulance providers, and monitor ETA status without phone trees, faxes, or duplicate data entry.
