| What to Look for in Hospital Employee Health Software |
 |
Paperless Employee Charts
Hospital employee health software should enable detailed management of immunizations and surveillance, including automatic calculation and scheduling of "next due" dates according to intervals that may vary by department or job class. The
software should
eliminate lost charts,
lab slips, shot
records, work comp
case papers, etc. by
providing a
paperless employee
record. Any
document should be
accepted as a
scanned image for
future reference. |

Both Stix® and Agility EHR manage tracking and reporting with ease. Agility EHR offers the
added benefit of a fully certified electronic health record, with such functions as electronic prescribing, drug
interaction verification, clinical decision support, etc. Scanning provides a simple but powerful route to paperless charts, and to eliminating all the frustration of missing documents.
Compliance Reports On Demand
Hospital employee health software should enable the generation of reports regarding compliance rates by department, as well as reports to indicate the specific items and actions required for a department to be in compliance with relevant regulations.
With Stix or Agility EHR, a comprehensive reporting module provides reports required for regulatory compliance and infection control. The module also includes a unique reporting "wizard" that enables nurses to create custom reports.
Tracking Wellness Program Effectiveness
Hospital employee health software should enable the monitoring and reporting of an unlimited number of wellness measures over time, such as blood pressure, weight, smoking, etc. The software should also accept the import of formatted data from external wellness assessments.
With Stix or Agility EHR, all of the details of wellness programs are tracked. In fact, robust reporting capabilities clearly illustrate the effectiveness of programs (i.e., smoking cessation or weight loss). Both software solutions also accept clinical data imports from any Health Risk Appraisal software that can export its data.
Software with a Hosted Solution Offering
To reduce up front hardware costs and to count on predictable software expense, employee health departments may prefer to take advantage of a hosted model of software deployment.
Both Stix and Agility EHR are available as a hosted solution or on-premise installation.
