HealthLeap malnutrition screening

Find patients who may need nutrition care earlier.

HealthLeap analyzes every inpatient chart each morning and gives clinical nutrition teams a prioritized worklist backed by peer-reviewed validation.

Every inpatient,
every day.

Reviews every chart
Every adult, every day
Risk score by 6 AM
In the Epic flowsheet
Upstream of CDS & CDI
Top-of-funnel identification

HealthLeap reviews every adult inpatient's chart every day, ranks them by nutrition risk, and writes the risk score into the dietitian's Epic flowsheet by 6 AM. We sit upstream of CDI and CDS, not competing with them. Your existing workflows stay intact; HealthLeap closes the identification gap that comes before them.

Built around existing work

A daily signal, placed before the work begins.

HealthLeap is designed to add prioritization upstream of clinical nutrition, CDI, and CDS workflows, not create a separate screening burden.

01

Analyze every chart

Each morning, HealthLeap reviews the available inpatient record for signals associated with nutrition risk.

02

Prioritize attention

Patients are scored and sorted so clinical nutrition teams can begin with the highest-priority cases instead of working through false flags.

03

Support the full care team

Earlier risk signals can support clinical nutrition, quality, CDI, CDS, and finance goals while established clinical decisions remain with hospital teams.

01

Only validated

To our knowledge, the only inpatient malnutrition prioritization program peer-reviewed against the clinical reference standard: 166,000+ admissions over 3.75 years. Detects patients 88% more often than modified MST, a mean of 4 days before first dietitian documentation. Bernstein et al., Applied Clinical Informatics, AUROC 0.92 rising to 0.95.

02

Upstream of CDS and CDI

HealthLeap sits upstream of CDI and CDS, identifying patients before those workflows can engage. It doesn't replace your existing clinical decision support or CDI investment; it closes the identification gap that comes before them.

03

A program, not just a model

We wrap our frontier AI model in on-the-ground services that turn the signal into outcomes. Implementation, change management, and outcomes accountability.

Common questions

What hospital teams ask first.

What does HealthLeap do each morning?

HealthLeap analyzes inpatient charts, scores each patient for nutrition risk, and gives clinical nutrition teams a prioritized worklist. The goal is to surface patients who may need additional attention earlier without changing the dietitian's clinical judgment.

How is HealthLeap validated?

HealthLeap co-authored research with leaders from Cedars-Sinai, Johns Hopkins, and Stanford, published in Applied Clinical Informatics. The peer-reviewed study covered more than 166,000 admissions over 3.75 years and reported 88% higher sensitivity than nurse-administered malnutrition screening, four days earlier identification, and AUROC rising from 0.92 to 0.95 during the stay.

Does HealthLeap replace clinicians or make a diagnosis?

No. HealthLeap is a screening and prioritization tool. It helps clinical teams focus attention, while assessment, diagnosis, documentation, coding, and treatment remain with qualified hospital professionals.

How does it fit into existing hospital workflows?

HealthLeap is designed to work with hospital EHR data and support the workflows already used by clinical nutrition, quality, CDI, and CDS teams. Implementation details are planned with each health system's clinical, technical, and governance leaders.
