The Semblance founders
Clinical requests get lost between people
A single request can pass through a physician, a nurse, a case manager, an MA and the front desk before it is done. Along the way, its status tends to live in someone's memory.
So the work gets finished by chasing: messages, hallway checks and lists kept in people's heads. We started Semblance because follow-through that important should not depend on who remembers.
~15%
of their working hours is what clinicians report spending on chasing patient statuses.
One request, owned until it is closed
Semblance turns a clinician's request into one accepted commitment and keeps it in view until there is evidence it is done.
Stated request
A clinician says or types what needs to happen, once.
Confirmed commitment
Semblance structures the request, and the clinician confirms it.
Accepted owner
One owner accepts it, with a due time. Accept, decline and delegate are built in.
Status & escalation
Status and blockers stay visible, and escalation follows your team's rules.
Verified closed
Closure is recorded with evidence and anchored to your EHR's own record.

What we believe about follow-through
Every request needs one owner
When everyone shares a task, it is easy for no one to finish it. Each commitment in Semblance has one accepted owner and a due time.
Status should be seen, not chased
Anyone on the team can see where the work stands and what is blocking it, without a call or a hallway check.
Done means proven
Work is closed when there is evidence, not when someone remembers it. Every commitment exports as an FHIR Task, Provenance and AuditEvent.
Fit the clinic you already run
Semblance reads orders, results and schedules through SMART on FHIR and works alongside your EHR. No rip and replace, and no heavyweight new workflow.
