Enhancing Patient Care Delivery with Improved Communications

Health information technology communication solutions play an important role in today’s healthcare delivery. This role has even increased as hospitals branch out into larger service areas such as providing clinical lab and radiology services to affiliated and non-affiliated physicians.

The overriding goal for any hospital is to improve the quality and value of the care delivered to patients and the referring communities who use the hospital’s services. Quality and value in healthcare can be measured in terms of the patient outcomes achieved per dollar expended. Is there a way to improve services level, while still holding down or reducing the costs of providing those services? More expensive care delivery does not necessarily mean better care.optical-fiber-network-shows-world-wide-web-communication-indicating-website-54518305

To improve connectivity and reduce costs, hospitals need to take advantage of cost-effective alternatives to expensive and time-consuming EMR interfaces by deploying solutions similar to those offered by DigitalOne.

These solutions not only improve a hospital’s bottom line, but they also enhance patient care with improved results reporting and better coordination of care. Physicians using the hospital’s services have at their fingertips the laboratory results and radiology images they need to provide the best care possible. The patients’ results have been electronically delivered to the doctor’s EMR through fast and cost-effective connectivity solutions.

These solutions also offer hospitals a competitive advantage to help them grow market share by significantly increasing their referrals and retaining the customers gained by improving service levels.  

And, with new governmental mandates such as the Advanced Care Information (ACI) program, these connectivity solutions provide hospitals with the capabilities required to support transition to these new mandates, while helping them improve their bottom lines with easy-to-deploy and use technology.
