Vinyl Health
For self-insured employers & benefits leaders

Employees don't miss work because healthcare is expensive. They miss because navigating it has become a second full-time job.

Vinyl changes that, for your employees and the families they're managing care for, without a single additional call, portal login, or missed afternoon.

The real cost you're carrying

Your benefits didn't get more expensive. Healthcare navigation did.

By 2030, all Baby Boomers will be over 65, creating unprecedented demand for family caregiving. Millions of your employees are managing their own health while coordinating care for aging parents. The sandwich generation is already in your workforce.

Most healthcare conversations happen without family present. And when something goes wrong (a missed follow-up, a medication error, a duplicate test), your benefits pay for it.

Caregiving reduces work productivity by approximately one-third.
Missed information leads to medication errors, duplicate testing, and avoidable hospitalizations.
Care is delivered across multiple providers and systems, requiring countless hours of coordination.
The family members who could help most are often in another city, uninformed and unavailable.

A better approach

There's a new playbook. And it costs less.

The old playbook
Separate care-navigation vendor: high cost, low engagement
Mental-health tool that doesn't connect to physical health
A patient portal employees never log into
Care-management teams that can't see the full picture
Employees still missing work for appointments they didn't need to attend
Family members out of the loop, making more calls, not fewer
The Vinyl plan
One solution that does the remembering and managing — 24/7
AI notetaker captures every appointment, without anyone missing work
Structured summaries keep family members informed automatically
Care plan updated after every visit, patient and provider aligned
Health records from all providers in one place, with no portal juggling
Questions queued before every visit, answered in the room, shared instantly
How Vinyl works

Five steps. One app. Zero missed afternoons.

Every recorded appointment flows through Vinyl's AI pipeline, giving employees and their families what they need without anyone leaving work.

01 · LISTEN

Ambient AI captures the appointment from any setting, without interrupting the conversation.

Employee stays present. No notes. No stress.
02 · TRANSLATE

Medical detail summarized into plain language with clear key takeaways.

No follow-up call to HR needed.
03 · VALIDATE

Provider reviews the full patient picture via a single QR scan.

Fewer duplicate tests. Fewer repeat visits.
04 · INTEGRATE

Recommendations feed into one seamless care plan. Follow-through becomes doable.

Adherence up. Avoidable utilization down.
05 · SHARE

Summaries and next steps go to whoever the patient chooses, instantly.

Vinyl is in the room. Your employee isn't.
What your members experience

Six features. One benefit your employees will actually use.

Not another wellness app that gets downloaded and forgotten. Vinyl lives inside the moments that matter: the appointment, the diagnosis, the question that doesn't get asked.

AI Notetaker

Records appointments and generates structured summaries (medications, follow-ups, warning signs) in plain language.

Employer benefit: Employees stop missing work to attend appointments. Vinyl attends for them.

Care Plan

Two views: patient-friendly and provider-facing clinical breakdown by system, diagnosis, and specialty. Always current.

Employer benefit: Reduces duplicate testing and missed follow-ups that drive avoidable utilization.

Appointment Questions

Members and family queue questions before visits. They surface in the room; answers are captured in the summary.

Employer benefit: Better visit quality means fewer callbacks and repeat appointments.

Mood & Symptom Journal

Daily logging by voice, text, or tap builds a timeline providers can review, so every visit reflects real progression.

Employer benefit: Earlier intervention when symptoms are tracked; fewer crisis-level episodes.

Support Network

Members post needs: meals, rides, childcare. Their network responds in-app. No group texts, no dropped balls.

Employer benefit: Employees with coordinated support miss less work and return to productivity faster.
The business case

The old playbook was fragmented and expensive. Vinyl is one solution, at a fraction of the cost.

Patients who understand their care are more likely to follow recommendations, reducing spend driven by misunderstanding and non-adherence. Vinyl automates that understanding at scale.

And when family is in the loop, research shows $200–$500 saved per member per month. Vinyl automates that loop without requiring anyone to miss a day of work.

Jim McNamara

I used the Vinyl app at my last doctor's appointment and it was a very simple process to record the visit. At the end of the visit it gave me the medications she prescribed under my care plan. I had a follow up visit to address the effects of the medication and used the question feature as a reminder of the side effect I was experiencing. Love this app!
