Newtn Digital Launches Platform to Streamline DME Workflows

AUSTIN, Texas—Newtn Digital, a provider of digital workflow solutions for the durable medical equipment (DME) industry, announced the launch of its platform designed to streamline ordering, documentation and claims processing for DME providers and suppliers. The company said the platform connects healthcare providers, physicians and DME suppliers through a workflow that aims to reduce paperwork, improve documentation accuracy and help accelerate reimbursement.

“Healthcare has modernized many aspects of patient care, but DME workflows have remained largely stuck in a paper-based environment,” said Newtn Digital CEO Mark Newton. “Those inefficiencies create delays for providers, suppliers and patients alike. We built Newtn Digital to help move information more quickly and accurately between stakeholders while simplifying a process that has remained unnecessarily complex for years.”

The Newtn Digital platform automates DME fulfillment and documentation by connecting hospitals, physicians and suppliers through a unified system. Features include automated demographic capture from electronic health record systems, digital physician and patient signatures, real-time documentation sharing and integration with DME billing and patient management software.

The company said the launch comes as healthcare organizations prepare for the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ adoption of electronic claims attachment standards, increasing pressure to replace paper-based documentation and manual workflows with digital processes.

“The shift toward digital documentation is no longer a future initiative for healthcare organizations,” Newton said. “Providers and suppliers are looking for practical ways to improve efficiency, reduce risk and prepare for evolving industry requirements. Solutions that connect stakeholders and improve information flow will play an increasingly important role in that transition.”
