AvaSure report and webinar detail top use cases and best practices for virtual care programs

BELMONT, Mich., Dec. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — AvaSure, a market leader in acute virtual care, today announced the results of a primary market research survey that revealed that, while inpatient virtual care is growing, most health systems remain in the early stages of adoption.

In 2024, only 10 percent of hospital leaders and 14 percent of hospital IT leaders have reached the phase where inpatient virtual care is a standard part of care delivery. In both groups, 30 percent reported no inpatient virtual care.

At the same time, despite the slow march toward virtual care maturity, 74 percent of hospital leaders believe inpatient virtual care is, or will become, integral to care delivery models in acute inpatient care—up from 66 percent in last year’s survey.

Other highlights from the survey include:

In 2024, only 46 percent of hospital leaders are piloting or have implemented virtual care for inpatient acute care, albeit that number has grown from 38 percent a year ago.Hospital leaders view virtual sitting (39 percent), patient discharge (33 percent), and admission documentation support (32 percent) as the leading use cases for virtual care.Hospital leaders’ most-frequently cited metrics to measure the success of virtual care programs include patient safety (58 percent), patient experience (53 percent), workload burden for current staff (48 percent), patient outcomes (48 percent), throughput or patient flow (43 percent), nurse retention (32 percent), workforce costs (26 percent), nurse safety (25 percent). For IT leaders, the top metric was improving nurse satisfaction and retention.

“These survey results demonstrate that, even as the nursing shortage has gone from acute to chronic, interest in virtual care continues to gain momentum among hospital leaders, both clinical and IT,” said Lisbeth Votruba, MSN, RN, Chief Clinical Officer, AvaSure. “Most providers are still in the early exploration phase, the second level of the 5-step Inpatient Virtual Care Maturity Model. Our 5-stage approach serves as a roadmap for care model transformation by executives who are change-management oriented and outcome-focused.”

“Virtual care is becoming essential to delivering high-quality, accessible patient care that reduces the burden on bedside staff,” said Claire Zangerle, DNP, R.N., CEO of the American Organization for Nursing Leadership at the American Hospital Association. “However, achieving true impact requires more than just adopting the technology—it demands setting clear goals and taking deliberate steps to mature these programs. By focusing on the right processes and support systems, hospitals can ensure that virtual care not only eases the burden on caregivers but also enhances patient outcomes and experience.”

The full survey report will be shared with those who attend the AvaSure webinar on the 5-stage inpatient virtual care maturity model to be co-presented by Votruba and Zangerle. Register for the webinar here.

About the survey

The Inpatient Virtual Care Insight Survey was conducted online within the U.S. by Joslin Insight on behalf of AvaSure between September 19 and October 7, 2024. The survey received responses from 340 healthcare professionals primarily working in acute care settings. At least 30 percent were nurse leaders or key decision-makers (collectively referred to as ‘hospital leaders’). For this study, the sample data is accurate to within plus or minus 5.3 percentage points with a 95 percent confidence level.

To complement the nurse survey, AvaSure gathered insights from 29 hospital IT leaders (mostly CIOs) regarding Inpatient Virtual Care Adoption.

New tender offer capabilities connect equity management with real-time valuation data covering approximately 65,000 private companies with a combined estimated value of $9 trillion, laying the groundwork for future secondary marketplace capabilities.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Eqvista, a leading equity management and valuation platform serving more than 25,000 companies, today announced the launch of company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, enabling private companies to organize structured liquidity events directly within their equity management platform. The launch also marks a step toward Eqvista’s planned secondary marketplace capabilities.

As companies stay private longer, employees and early investors face limited opportunities to sell their shares. Meanwhile, organizing liquidity events involves complex decisions around pricing, participant eligibility, approvals, and ownership changes.

Eqvista brings these processes together through a company-controlled tender offer workflow, supported by its equity management infrastructure and Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® technology.

“With Eqvista, private companies can help their employees and early investors turn their shares into cash, rewarding them for their contributions to the company,” said Tomas Milar, Founder and CEO of Eqvista. “We already help companies manage ownership and understand their value. Bringing tender offers into the same platform is a natural next step toward connecting equity management, valuation, and liquidity.”

Company-Controlled Tender Offers

Eqvista’s new capabilities allow companies to manage tender offers while maintaining control over participation, transaction terms, and ownership changes.

Key features include:

Cap table integration: Automatically record completed ownership changes.Participant controls: Define eligible buyers and sellers and offer windows.Allocation rules: Set transaction limits, pro rata allocations, and priorities.Integrated approvals: Manage approval requirements and rights of first refusal.Valuation-informed pricing: Reference Eqvista Real-Time Company Valuation® data when evaluating transaction pricing.

By integrating these processes, Eqvista aims to reduce the administrative complexity of organizing liquidity events while helping companies maintain control over their shareholder base.

Building Toward a Secondary Marketplace

Building on its company-sponsored tender offer capabilities, Eqvista plans to expand into secondary marketplace infrastructure designed to support structured, company-approved liquidity programs. By connecting ownership records, real-time valuation data, and private share transactions within one platform, Eqvista aims to make private market liquidity more accessible while allowing companies to maintain control over participation and ownership changes. Further details will be announced as development progresses, subject to applicable regulatory requirements.
