🏆 IFEM VITA AWARD WINNER 2026

REX: Post-Discharge Companion for Emergency Departments

IFEM Visionary Industry Technology Award winner. Evidence-based AI companion supporting patients after ED discharge. Reduces re-attendance anxiety, improves understanding of discharge instructions, available 24/7 in multiple languages.

Post-discharge uncertainty drives preventable re-attendance

What We See

Patients leave ED tired, frightened, often unclear on discharge instructions. They go home and worry: "Is this normal? Should I go back?" Without clear guidance, anxiety drives unnecessary returns or dangerous delays.

Language barriers, literacy levels, and cognitive load during discharge compound the problem. Written instructions aren't always understood or retained.

What REX Does

REX provides 24/7 post-discharge support in plain language. Patients can ask questions, clarify instructions, and get clear guidance on when to escalate. REX never replaces clinical judgment but fills the gap between discharge and follow-up.

Multilingual support in 11 major world languages including English, Spanish, Hindi, Arabic, French, Portuguese, Bengali, Urdu, Swahili, Luganda, and Runyankitara—covering 2.7 billion speakers globally.

REX is free at point of use. Conversations are not stored - maximum privacy for vulnerable patients.
