Cardiovascular KnowledgeCenter
A completely integrated information environment supporting
your heart program’s long-term clinical and business
goals.
|
For more than 20 years, providers of cardiovascular care have
asked a simple, compelling question: why can’t I
have all of my clinical and administrative data available when
and where
I need it?
After all, Cardiovascular Services is a high technology area of
medicine, and virtually all of the critical data is electronic.
And for two decades, the major IT vendors have been singing the
praises
of an electronic
healthcare environment—electronic medical records and order
entry, automated charge capture, centralized imaging networks,
enterprise scheduling, and inventory control. And we all know the
benefits by heart: better quality outcomes, higher revenues, lower
costs.
So why do the USA’s top heart centers still cope
with islands of disconnected data and inefficient manual access? There
is no simple answer, but many contributing causes. First, the
IT vendors sell information systems that don’t talk to systems
designed by other vendors. There are hundreds of diagnostic
devices churning out millions of bytes of data in proprietary formats.
Then there is always a shortage of internal IT resources—it
takes a great deal of time and money to tie all those systems together.
Allow us to offer a fresh perspective on an old problem. We call
it the Cardiovascular KnowledgeCenterTM.
It’s more than just
a new name for a common vision. It represents a novel approach
to creating a truly integrated information environment
supporting your heart programs long-term clinical and business
goals. We cordially
invite you to share the Knowledge Center vision.
