HeartSuite VERICIS Web-based, multi-modality Clinical Reporting will help you improve cardiac patient management in three significant ways:
Case by case, it enables faster dissemination of results—reducing
report turnaround time from days to minutes and improving physician-to-physician
communication.
User to user, it improves the consistency and completeness
of reports—increasing conformance to quality, accreditation, and reimbursement
guidelines.
Year after year, it provides a comprehensive, desktop-accessible
knowledge base—providing a powerful tool for administrators to manage
departmental performance and for physicians to improve disease management.
Comprehensive digital record
HeartSuite VERICIS Web-based Clinical Reporting is an application of
our enterprise solutions for cardiology—the first information management
system that captures patient information across the continuum of cardiac
care.
Built on a single platform, HeartSuite for cardiology integrates data from different sites (office, clinic, hospital) and different sources (interventional and diagnostic x-ray angiography, echo, nuclear, hemodynamics, reports, HIS) to create a comprehensive digital record on the patient.
With HeartSuite VERICIS Clinical Reporting, a physician can review the clinical
images and information on a patient, generate a report and distribute it—all in a single session. The report becomes part of the patient’s record and part of the comprehensive HeartSuite VERICIS database—providing
clinicians and administrators with a wellspring of information to improve patient
management and departmental performance.
Make reports available anywhere—instantly
HeartSuite VERICIS Web-based Clinical Reporting integrates complete data on
the cardiac patient—images, hemodynamic monitoring, and clinical results—on
a single display so physicians can review the findings and generate a report
in a single session.
HeartSuite VERICIS eliminates the dictation/transcription/editing/review cycle
and associated delays. Report turnaround time—the interval from initiating data review to disseminating a report—can
be reduced from days to minutes. And results are instantly accessible online
to all authorized users.
Immediate availability of clinical reports to caregivers throughout your enterprise will help:
- Improve physician-to-physician communication
- Increase the productivity of individual physicians and the department as a whole
- Decrease time to treatment for patients
- Decrease the need for verbal dissemination of findings
Get everyone on the same page
HeartSuite VERICIS provides the best of both worlds in a clinical reporting system—enough structure to standardize the routine aspects of reporting but sufficient flexibility to adapt to the unique workflow of any practice.
HeartSuite VERICIS’ structured reporting format helps standardize the communication of results among all physicians in the department, but allows each site to use expressive language of their choosing within the structured nomenclature. With its unique combination of flexibility and control, HeartSuite VERICIS Clinical Reporting:
- Promotes user adoption
- Increases report completion and accuracy rates
- Facilitates proper and timely assignment of reimbursement codes
- Improves conformance to quality and accreditation guidelines
Extract more value from patient data
With a paper-based reporting system you have no efficient way to tap into the aggregate data from your cardiac patients. This information sits in isolated folders and databases within departments, clinics, and offices across your healthcare system.
HeartSuite VERICIS Clinical Reporting provides immediate access to an integrated database of all cardiac patients to support your continuous quality improvement (CQI) efforts. Administrators can problem-solve from their desktops rather than undertaking time-consuming chart pulls to gather data. HeartSuite VERICIS is a powerful tool that facilitates:
- Analysis of clinical outcomes
- Analysis of departmental statistics to aid negotiation of managed care contracts
- Fulfillment of certification and accreditation requirements
- Development of disease management protocols based on the clinical effectiveness of therapies across your patient population
- Benchmarking against national hospital norms via the ACC-NCDR CathPCI national registry
It’s YOUR workflow—only simplified
HeartSuite VERICIS overcomes the #1 roadblock to adoption of digital clinical reporting—user resistance. Designed by practicing cardiologists, it encompasses all elements of the cardiac diagnostic process within a structured, yet flexible reporting methodology that quickly feels like second nature to physicians.
Simple navigation. All current and historical information on the patient—imaging, hemodynamic, and clinical results—is integrated on a single screen. Pull-down menus and side-by-side displays allow physicians to complete reports without flipping from screen-to-screen. The icon-based navigation system with interactive anatomical diagrams makes it easy to review and report the findings. Measurement tools allow post-procedure analysis of images, with results directly populating the report fields.
Custom formats and language. A wide variety of report formats can be created with HeartSuite VERICIS, including full clinical reports, summary reports, referral letters and more. All can be customized with department-approved language. And each one is quickly generated from the master set of findings.
Quick-click reporting. You can define macros for normal and common reports so that users can generate reports with a few mouse clicks, significantly improving turn-around time on routine cases.
Digital signature and distribution. HeartSuite VERICIS removes communication roadblocks. Once you finish a report, simply sign it digitally and it’s available anywhere on the network for viewing, printing or electronic distribution.
Multi-modality support. HeartSuite VERICIS Clinical Reporting supports the entire range of cardiovascular modalities, with modules available for:
- Echocardiography (TTE, TEE, stress)
- Coronary cath
- Peripheral vascular cath
- Peripheral vascular ultrasound
- Nuclear cardiology
All modules feature a consistent graphical user interface and navigation scheme, simplifying training and usage.
Improving the quality and efficiency of patient care
The HeartSuite VERICIS Clinical Reporting system can be a powerful tool in your ongoing efforts to improve patient outcomes while controlling costs. With HeartSuite VERICIS you will quickly see the bottom-line benefits of:
- Fewer reporting errors by eliminating transcription and multiple data entry
- Greater reporting consistency – a positive factor for reimbursement and accreditation initiatives
- Improved communication among clinicians leading to higher satisfaction levels for staff and referring physicians
- Reduced time-to-treatment and length of stay for cardiac patients
- Improved departmental performance through analysis of aggregate patient data
