Medworxx Solutions Inc. ("Medworxx") (TSX VENTURE: MWX) today is pleased to announce a new program, the Appropriate Length of Stay Audit, that helps to unlock unique patient flow data which helps organizations understand patient flow issues.
The Appropriate Length of Stay Audit (“ALSA”) uses the proven Medworxx software as an audit and diagnostic solution, prior to hospitals implementing the solution operationally. Management consulting companies and hospital support agencies are able to use Medworxx to rapidly unlock unique patient flow data, providing visibility into patient flow issues in the hospitals that they provide services to.
“In working with Medworxx to conduct several audits this year, we have found that the patient flow data provided by the Medworxx solution provides visibility into patient flow issues and challenges in the hospitals we are working with,” says Anita Grindlay, Director, EQ Health (Australia). “Without the Medworxx solution, this data would be nearly impossible to gather.”
With the Appropriate Length of Stay Audit program, consulting companies and healthcare support organizations have the ability to license the Medworxx solution to provide them with patient flow data and assist them in their analysis. In addition Medworxx provides training and consulting expertise to consultants in their use of the Medworxx Patient Flow platform.
“The ALSA program is an effective solution for consulting companies to expand their practices by providing insight into patient flow issues that without Medworxx would be extremely difficult to gather. It also allows hospitals to get exposure to the Medworxx solution, which we believe will fuel their desire to have this data every day, and therefore license the product after the audit process,” said Dan Matlow, CEO & President, Medworxx. “We have been pilot marketing the ALSA program to consulting companies internationally and the reception has been very positive. We are now ready to be extremely active in this approach; the ALSA program is becoming a key component of our go to market strategy for our patient flow platform.”
The Medworxx solution has been successfully used in audits in the United Kingdom together with our partner Model Advice. Current Medworxx clients Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust and South Tees Hospitals NHS Trust started off as diagnostic audits and later licensed the platform for operational use. Medworxx has completed 6 additional audits internationally in 2013 with various organizations as part of our pilot process.
