Is health IT facing a ’Dangerous Decade’? - EHEALTHCOM interviews Tieto's Andreas Lange
Andreas Lange, chairman of the German health IT industry association VHitG and Vice President General Manager Healthcare Central Europe at Tieto, talks about current industry trends, safety and security, and about the fate of the VHitG electronic referral letter under the new German government of conservatives and liberals.
Healthcare management leans on reliable reporting
Active utilization of data saved in patient information systems is an essential part of strategic management in the healthcare sector. Together with Tieto, the Central Hospital of Central Ostrobothnia has actively developed a new generation reporting tool, which enables cross reporting of contacts, referrals, diagnoses, interventions and billing.
Pioneering ICT solutions, such as digital self services, open new opportunities
Patient-centric care, up-to-date patient information available throughout the entire healthcare chain, improved productivity, collaboration and empowerment – these are but a few of the benefits that information and communication solutions can already offer to both patients and healthcare professionals.
Clinical Pathways: It’s about integration of care
How can a hospital information system be turned into a true platform for the integration of care processes? At the Zentrum für Seelische Gesundheit in the German town of Marienheide, Tieto’s HIS iMedOne has recently seen the addition of a clinical pathway module. As a result, care providers are collaborating far more closely and staff satisfaction is on the rise.
ICT can help doctors in their daily work
Acceptance among doctors is a key issue in the digitization of healthcare system. Quite a number of projects run into problems here. Tieto is currently being engaged in several national EPR projects and receives good feedback from doctors.
