A Texas-based hospital has selected Streamline Health's Suite of Health Information Management document workflow solutions to improve productivity and patient care.
By improving operational efficiencies through business process optimization, Streamline Health will help this nonprofit healthcare delivery system to promote excellent cardiac services and facilitate better care for all patients. Offering physicians immediate access to critical patient data, the implementation of Streamline Health's document workflow solutions at the cardiovascular outpatient clinic will automate vital workflows.
Streamline Health eliminates the inefficient "friction points" that exist in most hospitals today. When Streamline Health's integrated solutions are implemented to enhance a healthcare organization's existing transaction-centric clinical, billing and administrative information systems, the financial impact is truly profound.
“We are particularly pleased to provide the new heart and vascular outpatient clinic with document workflow solutions that link the quality of care to better patient outcomes," stated J. Brian Patsy, president and CEO of Streamline Health. "Our HIM Suite of document workflow solutions look to generate a more efficient and streamlined approach to view the patient's entire health record. The hospital organization can better serve its patients and the community.”
This outpatient heart and vascular clinic will combine Streamline Health solutions into its EpicCare medical record management system from Epic Systems Corporation. To provide the highest quality of care for heart failure patients, the clinic will deploy the integrated solutions to enhance business processes, boost productivity, and help promote transition of care beyond the hospital setting. With implementation expected to be completed in the first half of 2011, the total value of the contract is estimated to exceed $330,000, excluding maintenance services.
In February 2010, the company announced the general availability of its new accessANYware 5.0 Enterprise Document Workflow Software Suite. Streamline Health said its initial customer implementation of Version 5.0 went live in a production environment earlier this month at an international medical institution, supporting an enterprise master patient index of over 4 million patients across multiple facilities. The company's enterprise document workflow software suite supports health professionals and health systems.
