Enhancing Cancer Care Solution - Healthcare industry

Partnering with Seattle Information Systems Inc., Exergy Systems developed an innovative solution for CTCA, integrating patient-reported outcomes with EHR, significantly improving cancer care efficiency and patient engagement.

Challenge

Cancer Treatment Center of America (CTCA) sought to efficiently gather patient-reported outcomes and integrate these insights seamlessly into their existing electronic health records, aiming to enhance patient care without disrupting established clinical workflows. The requirement focused on leveraging technology to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of patient treatment plans, ensuring that patient experiences and outcomes directly inform care strategies. The client wanted to set a new standard in personalized healthcare.

Solution

Innovative Data Collection

Using the MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI), Exergy Systems created a state-of-the-art tool to gather comprehensive symptom analysis directly from the cancer patients.

Deployment on Apple iPads

Offering mobility and ease-of-use, iPads were chosen as the primary interface. It allowed physicians and care providers to access critical information at the bedside or any point of care within the hospital.

Unique Identification and Access

Patients used digital wristbands, ensuring a seamless and secure login to the application. This eliminated manual entry errors and ensured that each patient’s data was tightly linked to their unique identity.

Integration with AllScripts EHR

A robust HL7 interface was developed to ensure the seamless integration of patient data with AllScripts EHR, a renowned EHR platform

Enterprise Level Deployment

Rather than relying on multiple localized installations, Exergy Systems opted for an enterprise-level model. The application was centrally hosted in an on-premises data center at a primary CTCA hospital, accessible from any other CTCA facility.

Smart Printing

Physicians no longer had to manually select printers. The application algorithm automatically selected the nearest printer to the concerned physician, streamlining operations and reducing time waste.
