GTM @ Origami

You’ve got your list of Indiana discharge planners. Now it’s time to turn names into conversations. Origami isn’t just a list-building tool—it comes with a built-in LinkedIn sequencer that sends connection requests, follow-ups, and tracks replies, all without leaving the platform. No CSVs, no syncing. Here’s the exact campaign to run in 2026.

This is the companion guide to how to build a list of Indiana Discharge Planners. That post walked through using Origami’s AI agent to find and qualify planners across Indiana hospitals, SNFs, and home health agencies. Here, we’re moving from list to outreach. I’ll show you exactly how to refine that list for LinkedIn, craft messages that resonate with discharge planners (steal the templates), and send a three-touch sequence directly from Origami without leaving the platform.

Step 1: Build the List (Brief Recap)

Even if you’ve already built your list, a quick refresher helps. The prompt you might have used: “Indiana discharge planners at hospitals with 50+ beds, give me full name, job title, email, LinkedIn profile url, hospital name, number of beds.” Origami returns a clean table with verified work emails, direct-dial phone numbers, and LinkedIn URLs—the exact fields its sequencer needs. If you haven’t built the list yet, you can get 1,000 free credits (no credit card) and run it in a few minutes. Read the full walkthrough at the link above.

Now you have a list. Let’s make sure it’s ready for outreach.

Step 2: Refine and Qualify the List for LinkedIn

Before you launch a LinkedIn sequence, filter the list. Not every person with “discharge planner” in their title is a good fit.

What to remove:

  • Administrative assistants, interns, or discharge coordinators who lack decision-making authority (unless you want a foot in the door).
  • Profiles that haven’t been updated in years—stale LinkedIn profiles rarely respond.

Segment by facility type. In Origami, you can tag leads on the fly:

  • Acute care hospitals (e.g., IU Health, Community Health Network) – often have larger teams and formal referral processes.
  • Critical access hospitals – about 35% of Indiana’s hospitals fall here, serving fewer than 25 inpatients. Their discharge planners are often the lone person managing transitions; time pressure is acute.
  • Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) and home health agencies – they see the discharge from the receiving end.

Segment by region. Indiana has distinct healthcare markets: Indianapolis metro, Fort Wayne, South Bend, Evansville, and vast rural counties. Messaging that mentions “rural southern Indiana” hits differently than a generic opener.

What “qualified” looks like for this audience:

  • Title includes “discharge planner”, “case manager” (with discharge responsibilities), “transitional care coordinator”, or “social worker – discharge planning”.
  • Has been in the role at least 6 months.
  • Hospital bed count >25 (critical access and above).
  • Actively involved in post-acute referral decisions.

Take 10 minutes to scan the list, remove obvious mismatches, and tag the segments. This triage lifts reply rates more than any copy tweak.

Step 3: Create Your 3-Touch LinkedIn Sequence

Inside Origami, the LinkedIn sequencer lives right next to your prospect list. You have two ways to build the sequence.

Option 1: Paste Your Own Templates

Write a three-touch sequence using , , or any field Origami enriched. Set the delays between touches—I recommend:

  • Day 1: Connection request
  • Day 3: Follow-up message
  • Day 7: Final soft close

Paste each template, configure the delay, and you’re done.

Option 2: Let Origami’s AI Write It

Alternatively, ask Origami’s AI agent to generate a personalized 3-day LinkedIn sequence for all your leads automatically. The agent writes each message based on the lead’s title, company, and industry, so every touch reads like it was hand-typed. This saves hours on large lists, but I still recommend reviewing the copy before launch.

The Exact Templates to Steal

Below are the full messages I’ve used to get replies from Indiana discharge planners. They’re built around real pain points: tight discharge timelines, pressure to reduce readmissions, difficulty finding post-acute providers with availability, and administrative overload. Swap out the bracketed details to match your product.

Day 1 – Connection request note (300-character limit)

Hi , I help Indiana discharge planners find vetted post-acute providers with same-day availability. We’ve cut placement time 60% for rural hospitals. Worth connecting?

Why it works: It names the audience and specific value fast. Rural Indiana hospitals struggle with bed availability; the stat adds credibility without overselling. Under 200 characters—plenty of room for LinkedIn.

Day 3 – Follow-up message (sent after they accept) Subject: quick idea for your discharge challenges

, thanks for connecting. I know many discharge planners in Indiana, especially at critical access hospitals, are battling to find a SNF or home health agency with availability quickly. One rural hospital we work with in southern Indiana went from spending 4 hours a day on phone calls to placing patients in under 30 minutes. That’s the kind of time you could reclaim. Mind if I send over a 2-minute video that shows how it works for a hospital like yours?

Why it works: It leads with empathy, drops a concrete case from the area, and makes a low-friction ask. The message is 93 words—short enough to read in 20 seconds.

Day 7 – Final message (soft close) Subject: final thought on post-acute referrals

, I’ll leave this with you. The average discharge planner I talk to is managing 20+ cases at once, and the administrative side steals time from patient care. If streamlining your post-acute referral process could give you back even 5 hours a week, it’s worth a 15-minute chat. No pitch—just to see if it fits. If you’re not the right person, would you point me to who handles this on your team? Thanks.

Why it works: Acknowledges their workload, frames the conversation around time savings (the true currency for discharge planners), and includes an easy out. 80 words—respects their time.

Feel free to copy, paste, and tweak the angle to your specific solution.

Step 4: Send and Track Everything from Origami

With your templates loaded, head to the sequencer tab in Origami. Set your delays—Day 1 (Connection), Day 3 (Message), Day 7 (Final)—and hit Launch. Origami sends connection requests on your behalf; once a lead accepts, the follow-up messages fire automatically at the intervals you defined.

In the same dashboard where you built the list, you’ll see real-time activity:

  • Sent – connection request sent
  • Connected – accepted, next message queued
  • Opened – message viewed
  • Clicked – link clicked
  • Replied – lead responded

Click any contact, and the enriched profile is right there—title, company, hospital bed count, whatever you originally sourced—so you always know why you reached out. Most importantly, the moment a lead replies, they’re automatically removed from the sequence. No more accidentally sending a “just checking in” message after someone already booked a meeting.

The sequencer itself is included on all paid plans; you only pay for the credits used to enrich your leads. Sending is free. That means you can run multi-touch campaigns without stacking separate tools or exporting CSVs. One platform, from list-building to a replied conversation.

What Response Rates to Expect

For Indiana discharge planners, a professional and relevant LinkedIn profile typically sees connection acceptance rates between 25% and 40%. Of those who accept, 5% to 12% reply positively to a well-crafted sequence. I’ve seen campaigns aimed at the rural critical access segment hit 15% reply rates because the message spoke directly to their time crunch.

Factors that move the needle: your industry (health tech, medical devices, senior care services get better reception), how current your list is, and whether your profile headline makes context instantly clear. If reply rates lag below 3%, iterate on the message first—change the Day 3 hook, lead with a different stat, or personalize the opening line with the hospital’s name. If that doesn’t lift numbers, iterate on the list: narrow to hospital discharge planners only, or focus on facilities with 100+ beds where the complexity (and pain) is greater. Use Origami’s engagement data to spot which segments are connecting but not replying, then adjust.

Conclusion

Running LinkedIn outreach for Indiana discharge planners doesn’t have to be a mess of spreadsheets, CSV exports, and separate sequencer tools. With Origami, you build the list, qualify the leads, craft the sequence, and send it—all in one place. The free plan gives you 1,000 credits to test your first campaign. Grab the message templates above, load them into Origami, and start the conversations that turn into meetings.
