“In May 2012, we leveraged our market leader position in Canada and raised $3M to evaluate whether our unique Patient Flow IP would successfully translate to international geographies. We used these funds to update our IP and build sales and partner channels,” said Dan Matlow, President and CEO, Medworxx. “Two and a half years later, and with $1.9M of cash still on hand, we are happy to report that we have returned to profitability in Q4, with operational license sales in France and the UK, and PTRs in the USA and Australia.” Matlow adds, “Our expense levels are generally in place at this point and our recurring revenue is growing. When we combine these factors with our international pipeline opportunities we look forward to realizing on the investments we have made to date.”

Highlights for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 include:

  • The Company was profitable with net income of $55,634 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to a net loss of $330,721 for the three months ended December 31, 2013.

  • William Osler Health System (Osler) selected the Medworxx Patient Flow Platform to improve patient flow across its two hospital sites to support its vision of patient-inspired health care without boundaries and to help monitor, plan and implement processes to improve inpatient resource utilization.
  • NHS England introduced a substantial Commissioning for Quality and Innovation scheme (CQUIN) to support providers in adopting clinical utilisation review (CUR) technology for specialised admitted patient care and critical care in 2015/16. The CQUIN demonstrates NHS England’s commitment to CUR as an essential tool to effective patient flow within provider organisations and across local health economies and provides NHS Hospital Trusts with set-up funding and ongoing financial support and incentives to develop and embed recognised Clinical Utilisation Review systems. The goal is to improve patient flow, enhance quality and ensure patients are treated in the most appropriate clinical settings, freeing up staff time and hospital resources. Medworxx contributed to the event by showcasing user experience from acute care providers using the Medworxx clinical utilisation solution. Over the last 12 months more than 20 UK hospitals and their commissioners have used the Medworxx Clinical Utilisation Review capability through embedded and diagnostic applications. Medworxx is the leading clinical utilization vendor in the UK and Canada with a combined total of over 28,500 licensed beds using Medworxx patient flow software.
