Pragmedic Implements World-Class Healthcare Solution for Emaar Healthcare

DUBAI, UAE, October 29 /PRNewswire/ --
- Healthcare Information System Goes Live in Record Time of Two Months
In record time of two months, Pragmedic Solutions - a Dubai and US-based
healthcare software solutions provider has successfully implemented the
Healthcare Information System (HIS) for Emaar Healthcare Group, the
healthcare subsidiary of Emaar Properties, it was announced today.
Research shows that doctors exhaust 40 to 60 per cent of their working
hours engaged in documentation thereby moving them away from patient contact.
The HIS solution will now enable Emaar Healthcare to eliminate this
bottleneck and give more quality time to patient wellbeing as well as enhance
their own research and the study of the latest breakthroughs in medicine by
their clinical staff.
Partnered by Methodist International - a division of The Methodist
Hospital, Emaar Healthcare used IBM Consulting as its system integrator in
this makeover and now offers all relevant personal and medical data at the
push of a button.
Kashif Haqqi, CEO and Founder of Pragmedic Solutions said: "The solution
for Emaar Healthcare is so advanced in its state-of-the-art technological
applications that it cannot only shorten the waiting time for decision making
which can be crucial for a patient, analyze the clinical documentation for
specialist assessment but also aid the accounts department to iron out the
kinks in the billing process."
Commenting on the giant strides taken by Dubai in the realm of healthcare
he added that it could be the perfect case study in how the nexus between
health providers and the software industry can create an exceptional synergy.
"It reduces costs, widens the umbrella of protection for millions by
streamlining documentation and directly and positively addresses the very
factors that are contributing to the resistance facing US President Obama in
his health care initiative. I can confidently say that Information Systems
properly employed make the crucial difference.
"By going in for the HIS solution, Emaar Healthcare has again raised the
bar on medical standards in Dubai and the region and established a precedent.
It hopes to create for its patients a real time family health record and
ensure a series of procedures that generate a hi-tech bedside manner between
doctor and the patient," he said.
The solution from Pragmedic will enable care providers to offer improved
patient and hospital communication, ensure enhanced quality and safety of
care, improved cost/revenue management and increased operating efficiency and
workflow.
In addition, the solution also ensures patients receive access to
reliable and accurate health information, improved direct care provider
communication, efficient and customer friendly care experiences and timely
health management services.
