Providers today are relying on their electronic health record to perform functionality that goes beyond its capability. They need an integrated system that adds meaning to the data, which is exactly what Cantata’s Enterprise Health Management Solution can do.
A clean, successful Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) process is critical to your organization’s fiscal health and opens the door to providing high quality services and a sustainable work environment. Healthcare revenue cycle is tightly woven into the patient journey, from scheduling the appointment to the remaining zero balance on their account. A solid RCM ensures timely revenue, steady collections, and financial viability, allowing organizations to direct more of their focus on care delivery. Cantata’s RCM solution can help organizations achieve this!
Dynamic healthcare organizations are constantly looking for ways to improve efficiency and better serve individuals. While many steps go into optimization, reviewing your care delivery process and selecting a technology to support it is a great place to begin. Every small step will help foster better engagement with your clients and a more productive and positive work environment for all. By taking the time to assess your current state and planning a realistic roadmap of desired changes, you can make headway and create an upward spiral of success.
The pandemic might have been the final straw for many healthcare workers, but they were stressed and feeling burnt out long before masks and social distancing were even a thought. Issues included long and sporadic shifts, underwhelming pay, hectic work environments, and using unfamiliar or inefficient technology. According to a 2019 survey, clinical process design and structure, both of which are highly impacted by EHR’s, contributed to approximately 40% of clinician stress. Healthcare staff are stressed enough from the work they do – they don’t need their EHR adding to their stress. Fortunately, it does not have to be this way. Here are seven issues that often cause problems for clinical staff, and how Cantata’s Arize EHR help resolve them.
Workers have been leaving the healthcare industry in droves over the past few years. Since February, 2020, hospital employment has decreased by nearly 94,000, including over 8,000 between August and September, 2021, alone. Another study predicted there will be a critical shortage of 3.2 million healthcare workers by 2026. Although the COVID-19 pandemic may have been the last straw for healthcare workers, long shifts, little time off, and hectic work environments were other driving forces behind the decision to quit.
