Jump Technologies, a hospital supply chain solutions provider, announced the launch of Case Companion, a clinical solution designed to help hospital staff reduce duplicate documentation, improve real-time charge capture in the OR, control surgical material costs, and avoid costly stockouts.
Case Companion is a clinical solution designed to help optimize OR clinical workflows, reduce costs in procedural areas, and increase hospital revenue through enhanced supply capture. Case Companion enables these outcomes through the use of a mobile application for picking cases and recording consumption and waste during a case. With Case Companion, clinicians are able to easily scan lot, serial number, and expiration dates for items such as implants used in the OR or procedural suites. This data is used to update the case in the hospital’s EHR, decrement inventory, and generate requisitions directly into the hospital’s ERP system.
Case Companion’s simple interface and integrations with backend systems reduce clinical documentation time, which ultimately increases user adoption. The data captured by Case Companion can be leveraged to improve charge capture in procedure areas and provide real-time analytics for ongoing performance management.
By using Case Companion, hospitals can:
- Improve cash flow by identifying data errors that prevent proper billing to payers.
- Reduce costs by publishing costs per case, per physician, which allows doctors to see opportunities to save money.
- Improve purchasing power and reduce costs per case by identifying opportunities for vendor consolidation.
- Improve patient outcomes by highlighting variances in materials consumed, allowing them to be compared against outcomes.
- Reduce waste caused by outdated preference cards
