How do patients view telemedicine and telehealth? Learn more about some of the most common virtual care questions we hear while informing patients about the possibilities of virtual medicine.
Adding a new communication solution can mean concerns around budget, equipment costs, training, and overhead. However, implementing telehealth saves time while reducing costs and stress for patients and providers alike, both in the present and the long run.
With over 400 registered attendees and 21 speakers, TigerSummit provided a wealth of valuable information for not only our clients, but also the entire TigerConnect team.
In 2017, we ran the post below in response to a ransomware attack that hit Britain’s National Health System. Now in 2020, history has predictably repeated itself with a wave of attacks on several hospitals here in the U.S. from Ryuk, a group believed to be operating out of Russia and timed with both a surge in Covid-19 cases and the 2020 presidential election.
Cloud-based software offers benefits that on-premise servers simply cannot: Rapid scalability, shared infrastructure, minimal IT management, API integration, higher uptime, greater flexibility, better security, and lower overall costs.
Ineffective communication practices hold many healthcare organizations back. Administrators may be reluctant to invest in new technology, but they may not realize that continuing to operate with communication inefficiencies can lead to more medical errors, higher costs, and even lower staff morale. When administrators and clinicians work together to improve communication within their organization, they can usher in many benefits for employees and patients alike.
Transfer center inefficiencies can secretly drain not only hospital resources but staff morale and patient satisfaction. A simple, modest investment in a modern, mobile-centric collaboration platform can eradicate much of this burden while significantly increasing the volume of patient transfers, as it did for Temple Health, who went from 700 transfers per shift to 1,000 simply by adopting modern, purpose-built collaboration technology.
TigerConnect’s capabilities have been carefully designed to deliver positive outcomes that help care teams administer care and communication quickly. In the case of RWJBarnabas Health, coordinated care delivery through EHR access and role-based messaging has led to higher quality care collaboration and progress toward recovery.
When a healthcare system creates an initiative to build “one source of on-call truth”, the foundation will be implementing an enterprise-wide physician call scheduling software solution throughout the organization. In order to get the most value from an on-call scheduling software, it’s best to choose a fully-automated system that has a few basic functions.
More hospitals are hiring Chief Patient Experience Officers, and as the role matures, we’re learning that patients want to see evidence of exceptional communication, both with their clinicians and between their clinicians.
