Hand in Hand: How AltaPointe and Netsmart Made Improvements
Clinical, financial and operational decision making is higher quality as it’s easy to gather, interpret and share information across all functional areas in an organization.
Time and productivity are positively impacted as providers spend less time navigating the system or on administrative tasks, and more time delivering services to consumers.
Overtime costs were cut in inpatient as the ability to connect hospital census with level of patient need and the staff management system was made available.
Documentation compliance and completion improved with a 99% reduction in incomplete documents and an 89% increase in on-time document compliance.
Open and accessible records make it easy for any provider to evaluate notes and outcomes to create new programs to help consumers recover, all within one system and single clicks.
Custom views and data are available so any provider can see role-based requirements to best serve an individual.
Streamlined reporting helps automate the collection and use of helpful information, and results in the elimination of 42 clinical, compliance and end-of month reports that became unnecessary.
