Cost Management
Centricity Critical Care helps you manage your costs by
enhancing workfl ow, enabling a quicker staff learning
curve, and providing a powerful reporting tool with
remarkable statistical capabilities about quality of care,
costs and performance. Cohesive processes help re-
duce redundant examinations and support streamlined
quality care.
Scoring and Research – All of the major standard
scoring systems are pre-confi gured in the system. Ad-
ditional ones can be easily added, helping optimise the
workload and workfl ow. Scheduling active notifi cations
about potential research patients supports clinical trial
practice.
Convergence
Hospital IT environments require information conver-
gence. Centricity Critical Care enables integration with
sophisticated bi-directional systems (ADT, LAB, etc.).
SSO, Active Directory and LDAP support helps ensure
a cohesive environment is maintained.
For clinicians, Centricity Critical Care collects informa-
tion from devices and hospital information systems, and
displays it in a user-friendly, actionable and relevant
format.
When needed, where needed – For notifi cations and
alerts to function, one has to be able to receive them
timely. Centricity Critical Care can deliver information
via web-based remote work stations, email and even to
pagers and cell phones via SMS messa ges when hospital
systems support message routing.
Safety and security – Safety and data security are vital.
The integration with standard coding and reference
data systems promotes a consistent and accurate use
of clinically relevant information. Integrated database
maintenance tools and support for high-availability
architectures help ensure constant system availability.

tation personnel supervise your project. Our team of
professionals is accustomed to installations varying
