All I want...
..are financial benefits for my hospital
All you want is SystmOne
If you're a financial director, yes, of course you want to know that the hospital's patients are being given the best care possible, but you also need to know that the hospital is using its finances wisely and reaping the maximum benefit for each pound spent.
SystmOne has been written directly for the NHS in Great Britain, in conjunction with clinicians and hospital staff. It's designed for you and only for you. We know that no matter how good the system is, if it doesn't work financially, it doesn't work. SystmOne does.
"I'm looking forward to the
time savings that SystmOne
will bring to the hospital."
SystmOne is a single and complete clinical and administrative IT solution for the entire organisation. It is one system that can replace many. That means there is only one licence to pay in place of many. It'll come in cheaper than the systems it replaces as there is only one deployment team, one support team, one development team, one set of overheads. That makes sense, doesn't it?
What's more, because SystmOne streamlines processes, ensuring that information is available to the right person in the right place at the right time, it brings efficiencies in productivity so that staff time can be better used elsewhere, and you get more for your investment.
Hit targets
SystmOne helps hospitals to hit targets such as 18 week waits and discharge summaries to GPs within 24 hours. And we all know that there are financial implications for achieving targets.
Make savings
SystmOne also supports clinical coding of patient records, integrated with the HRG Grouper, which means that accurate payments are achieved for the care given.
As SystmOne is a centralised system, it means there are no servers based in your organisation, and that means you don't need to spend money on maintaining them. TPP covers all the maintenance costs of the software.
SystmOne has a resource scheduler which makes sure that patients are booked in for the items on their care pathway in the right order and at the right time. This eliminates situations where, for example, patients arrive for an appointment to discuss an X-ray before having had the X-ray. By reducing unnecessary visits to hospital, fewer letters are sent to patients, and less time is wasted by staff dealing with these patients.
The scheduling system also provides other financial benefits - without SystmOne, it can take one member of staff a significant amount of time, using their existing disparate systems, to book a single appointment, or arrange beds and theatres, making sure that the correct staff, rooms and equipment are available. The ability to schedule hundreds of events instantly with SystmOne is a major improvement. Time and therefore money saved by doing this can then be used elsewhere. Just imagine the changes you could make if all that time was used more productively.
What's more, as the hospital uses the scheduling system, patterns will emerge. SystmOne 'learns' these patterns and can use them to predict future capacity. Staff can then use this information to plan resources and workloads, and you can predict where and how your finances will be needed in future.
SystmOne contains a reporting facility which enables staff to run sophisticated reports on almost any patient activity/event. Being able to analyse what's going on in the hospital means you'll be able to spot patterns and identify areas that can be managed more efficiently. That in turn can lead to financial benefits.
Reduce resources
It's likely that one of your aims as an organisation is to reduce the amount of paper you use. SystmOne can be used as a communication tool between teams and individuals, so that means no paper messages left around on desks or stuck to monitors. Staff are alerted immediately when a message arrives, so can respond immediately, saving time which may ultimately lead to shorter patient stays. Discharge letters for patients can also be managed electronically, being sent to GPs directly through SystmOne. So all in all, we're looking at less paper and reduced postage costs.
