What pempal does

PEMPal (legal entity Premier Pediatric Solutions LLC) is a US-based, privately held company founded in 2023 by Dr. Alana J. Arnold that sells a bundled pediatric-readiness offering to community hospitals, hospital emergency departments, and urgent care centers. Its product suite combines three components: a Clinical Decision Support tool that interfaces with EHR systems to support direct pediatric patient management, a hybrid virtual/in-person CME/CE accredited training simulator for pediatric emergency care, and an Advising Services practice that conducts pediatric readiness assessments, equipment and supplies recommendations, and workflow and performance optimization engagements.

The company operates on a sales-led, direct go-to-market motion. Pricing is quote-based and delivered through multi-year institutional contracts, with consultation scheduling handled via Dubsado and a primary acquisition channel of "Book a Consultation" calls on the company website. Revenue is generated through recurring subscriptions for the Clinical Decision Support tool and professional-services engagements for CME/CE training and advising work. Marketing is content-driven, leaning on customer testimonials from healthcare executives, a monthly email newsletter, an active LinkedIn presence, and a Linktree content hub; no third-party resellers, integration partners, or distribution alliances are disclosed.

The operating footprint is domestic (United States only), the leadership team consists of four disclosed members (CEO/Founder, Health IT executive with CPHIT/CPHIMS certifications, healthcare engineer with BS/MBA, and general counsel with a JD), and no outside funding, institutional investors, partnerships, awards, patents, regulatory actions, or mergers and acquisitions are reported in the available data.
