Lighthouse supports the AMEOS Group’s objectives to increase patient safety and care quality while adding value and creating additional revenue.
It supports clinicians and nursing staff in their daily workflow: Utilizing industry standard clinical workflows and the embedded decision support with consequential notifications, sepsis may be detected and treated at early stages which could help prevent further complications.
Additional opportunities arise from enhancements in discharge management, the reduction and prevention of falls and pressure ulcers, time savings in the nursing workflow and improved documentation of patient complexity scores.
Cerner and the AMEOS Group have built a strong cooperative partnership and collaboratively developed cutting-edge IT solutions that have proven successful and innovative for coding and administration.
Dr. Stephan Zahn, Chief Technology Officer of the AMEOS Group, is delighted about the further collaboration: «»Cerner’s strategy of approaching IT solutions has fully convinced me. With the support of Cerner Millennium, we aspire to make use of synergic effects and new opportunities. In addition to increased patient safety and clinical outcome quality, we expect substantial savings and additional revenue. The system provides opportunities to optimise organisation management and controlling. Hence, Cerner Millennium is not only a clinical information system that stores patient data and test results, but a complex management tool. Through the deployment of the solution in other AMEOS hospitals the benefits are well known»».
«»For us, AMEOS is an important reference site,” said Holger Cordes, General Manager of Cerner Deutschland GmbH. “We have set new standards together and today we are looking at a new generation of systems. While our traditional objectives of supporting clinical processes and billing are still at the base of our work, integrative and comprehensive approaches that provide clinical decision support have become more and more important. The AMEOS Group is a pioneer in Germany in achieving these new objectives»».
