Vocada Veriphies Strategy
Vocada, Inc. introduced Veriphy, a technology-based solution for Critical Test Result Management, an enterprise strategy for enhancing patient safety, improving patient outcomes, and boosting staff productivity at hospitals at the annual meeting of the American Healthcare Radiology Administrators.
The Veriphy solution encompasses the following:
- policy development and implementation, including building of the physician database (This process ensures that rules and policies are consistent and appropriate and eliminates potential barriers to a smooth implementation.);
- communications technology that verifies message receipt and automates documentation and rule compliance — user-friendly, hosted technology that requires no new investment in hardware or software (A reporting clinician makes one call from a phone or computer and the system does the rest.);
- real-time reporting that enables benchmarking and performance evaluation (By logging on to the Verphy Web site, a hospital administrator can quickly see whether patients may be at risk from delays in communicating critical patient findings.); and
- professional services to help implement best practices.
One of the new features in Veriphy is a downloadable desktop application, which enables a reporting clinician to create and send a voice message about a test result directly from his or her computer to the ordering slinician. Veriphy also features a new Web interface.
