Techtalks: Healthcare

Hi Sanjana! If you haven’t read our article on patient engagement, I’m sure you’ll find a lot of answers there.

But in short, patient engagement is a set of practices and tools for helping patients become more educated about their conditions and more confident when managing them. Three main aspects of patient engagement include:

• Education -- explaining the course of treatment using videos, schemes, and other digital materials.
• Decision making -- using so-called decision aids that provide the overview of treatment options to help patients make an educated choice.
• Support outside the doctor’s office -- safe and convenient messaging, scheduling, and medication adherence reminders.

HI there, to answer your question.

In providing shared service solutions to small healthcare businesses, revenue cycle management should be prioritized.It is an essential component to assess the growth of a business. It basically tracks your business revenue from your patient.

The difference is:

• While an EMR contains data about a patient's health collected by the specialists of a healthcare unit such as a hospital, an EHR contains more comprehensive information about a patient's health obtained by the specialists of the patient. many hospitals prepared.

• In addition to the privacy issue, there is no doubt that the EHR is more useful for doctors to diagnose quickly and better.

CTMS or Clinical Data Management System is software for managing the whole clinical trial process. EDC or Electronic Data Capture is just one of the steps in that process - creating protocols and case report forms, recording patient data, and sending it to where it belongs. 

Not all clinical trials use complicated CTMSs, but most of them have an EDC, because they replace paper forms and reports. Sometimes patients use them too, when they’re accessing ePROs to report their health. We have a whole article on clinical trial software, where we explain all these systems and how they comprise the trial workflow.

Well, first thing to know is that all main EHR vendors have cloud-based versions of the software, most of which exclusively so. We’ve reviewed them here, if you’re interested. Cloud products in general are cheaper and more convenient in terms of maintenance and implementation, so smaller medical practices can get and use one right away. Besides, cloud software is:  

• Compliant with HIPAA requirements
• Updated automatically by a vendor
• Accessed on any device in any location (of course, with additional authorization measures)
• Easy to scale

Traditional or on premises EHR require an in-house IT team and complex tech infrastructure. Hospitals pay upfront and it takes months or even years to prepare the hospital and the system. The main benefit is customization, which is critical if you want to make sure that the software serves your needs best. Considering how frustrating and time consuming regular EHRs are, it makes perfect sense to customize an EHR if you have the budget.
