In today's economic downturn, it is easy to say we need to do more with less: less revenue, less labor, less costs. Most healthcare facilities are already at the point where any less will comprimise delivery of healthcare. Perhaps the solution is not more cutting, but smart investments. Investments that can be cost justified to reduce labor needs, to reduce paperwork, reduce errors, and reduce unecessary tests, medical errors, and ineffective treatments. Investments that will increase the amount of information between caregivers, increase the speed of information, and increase the scope of the medical record by including all encounters with all caregivers. The solution is empowering your caregivers by giving them all the tools and information they need to do their job.
MEDLINKS is committed to assisting the medical community in evaluating, obtaining and implementing these tools. State and Federal government are providing financial incentives and assistance to make this happen. Their goal is to reduce the overall cost of healthcare in the US. Your goal is to reduce the the cost of providing heathcare at your facility. Simply obtaining and implementing a electronic medical records (EMR) based system will do neither.
MEDLINKS can evaluate your needs, recommend solutions and costs, and assist in implementing all the software, hardware, and communication links to not only automate your clinical and financial needs, but to enable to participate in your regional health information organization. This will faciliate a secure confidential exchange of patient data from your system to others: typically pharmacies, primary and secondary insurance payors, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, or speciality practices.
