How Mobile Apps Benefit Healthcare Organizations

Good medical decisions are predicated on: having instant, accurate, rich, secure data. Healthcare organizations must collect, analyze and share various types of information on patient care, staff safety, facility compliance and critical equipment. Given the growing amount of data collected, and the speed at which today's healthcare staff work, paper forms don't cut it in modern healthcare anymore. Digitizing business processes and paper forms enables healthcare organizations to:

• Increase worker efficiency by reducing the hours spent on each daily activity.
• Improve service to patients with on-demand mobile experiences that provide better assistance and access to data.
• Lower risk by eliminating data-entry mistakes and delayed access to critical data.

The best mobile apps work offline, are optimized for one-handed data entry (i.e., speech-to-text) and tie into systems of record to facilitate better information sharing and response. 

Something amazing happens when healthcare organizations put data capture apps in the hands of nurses, doctors and administrators. And the results are even more compelling when staff can make these game-changing apps in minutes. With mobile apps, not only will data capture and sharing improve, but utilizing data to make better and faster decisions will dramatically impact the bottom line.
