Stress-free Pregnancy with Maternity and Child Health Software

According to WHO, “maternal health” refers to the state of women before, during, and after childbirth. To ensure that women and their unborn children reach their full health and well-being potential, each stage should be enjoyable.

Pregnancy is divided into three trimesters, each lasting about three months. When the sperm fertilises the egg during the first trimester, conception occurs. During the first trimester, the risk of miscarriage (the natural death of an embryo or foetus) is highest. Around the middle of the second trimester, the foetus can be felt moving. Prenatal care improves pregnancy outcomes. Prenatal care improves pregnancy outcomes. Regular physical examinations and blood tests are also part of prenatal care.

Clinically relevant information can be delivered to healthcare professionals via pop-ups, texts, and emails using the Electronic Patient Record. RioMed makes all pregnancy and birth records easily accessible to clinicians, allowing them to provide better maternity care. Cellma enables accurate data input throughout the labour and delivery process while streamlining the indicators required to avoid the risks associated with maternal and perinatal morbidity. Like antenatal care, a healthy lifestyle with proper nutrition, disease detection and prevention, and support for women to ensure access to sexual and reproductive health services, including postpartum family planning, are all essential components of high-quality postnatal care.

Any Maternal and Child Health Service, among other things, must be able to identify clinical risk factors early in order to treat patients’ physiological issues, monitor their nutritional status, and conduct standard evaluations of their care. Cellma’s Maternity and Health software solutions also help nursing homes, patients, and doctors by allowing them to update patient records with sonograms and any necessary lab results.

Many physiological changes occur during pregnancy that are completely normal, including behavioural, cardiovascular, hematologic, metabolic, renal, and respiratory changes. Blood sugar levels must rise, as must the rate of breathing and cardiac output. Cellma can notify healthcare personnel of high blood sugar levels, high/low blood pressure levels, or any other vital alerts.

A mother must have periodic checkups from the moment of conception through all stages of pregnancy for proper management and screening of the mother’s health and the development of the baby. As previously stated, any complications can be identified at an earlier stage, and more serious health problems can be avoided with prompt treatment. A postnatal checkup is a medical examination performed shortly after giving birth to ensure that you are healing properly. Postpartum care is critical because new mothers are at risk of serious, sometimes fatal, health complications. Postnatal checkups are required for all women and newborns during the first six weeks after delivery.

For maternal and child health services, health management information systems, or HMIS, provide a paperless and digital platform that allows expecting parents or mothers to easily schedule appointments, allowing for faster access to care. Online appointment booking systems have replaced older appointment scheduling procedures that were once done manually and frequently resulted in problems such as overbooking, missed cancellations, and other human errors.

As a result, Cellma can undoubtedly make your pregnancy journey less stressful and more enjoyable. Doctors and nursing homes can manage and screen data on an ongoing basis, from conception registration to prenatal appointments. With integrated data management, complications and hazards can be tracked. Check out our other specialities.

Document Management for Doctors and small Clinics

The digitization of medical records is the way to go. Digital transformation is critical for any doctor’s practice or clinic, from physical patient notes and records to electronic medical records. Doctors can now be confident that their patient’s medical records are securely stored in a digital format that can be quickly retrieved and reviewed by using our Apps and modules.

Document management falls under the following categories:

All of the patients’ histories are digitally recorded and uploaded with accuracy, speed, and detail. This eliminates errors caused by illegible writing. Patients no longer need to bring previous documents, prescriptions, x-rays, and so on because your patient’s medical history/records can be quickly accessed by clinics, doctors, or the patient themselves. Before a medical record can be viewed, a few quick authentication steps must be completed. To prevent file duplication or improper access, document management uses bar codes, personal identification information, age, and address. The ability to instantly access medical records and information allows for the quicker processing of more patients.

Authorized clinics and doctors can use this incredibly effective technique to easily and accurately share their patients’ records with other clinics and doctors, both locally and internationally, at any time and from any location. Only strictly authorized users, such as clinics, doctors, and patients, can access records from devices that use our App./module. The private and confidential nature of patient records maintained in document management necessitates stringent safeguards. This is basically required for any medically related profession. There are high ISO cyber-certification standards, layers of protection against infiltration or unauthorized use or viewing, and constant monitoring for security breaches.

Any business that uses document management technology should see increased efficiency and savings. Staff will not have to waste time filing or searching for patient files. They can use the time they’ve saved to make the patient’s experience one they’d like to repeat or refer to others. With the aid of our document management module, going paperless is as simple as following a few easy steps. The proper use of our module will result in less paper usage, which will reduce the need for hardware or storage space and practically render medical filing cabinets obsolete. Records are protected using web-based cloud storage rather than a large number of paper files. The safety of patient records is ensured against contamination, fire, water, and other unforeseen risks. The patient records in this module are organized into pertinent categories like Examinations, Investigations, Medications, Procedures, etc. This enables doctors to access pertinent issues much more quickly, which should lead to a quicker turnover of patient time.

Business intelligence transforming small clinics (part one)

Business intelligence is a concept in which raw data is processed and refined into more useful forms. In layman’s terms, business intelligence examines past and present data and displays it in more readable forms, such as graphs, charts, tables, images, and text. This concept is undeniably important in the healthcare system, particularly in small clinics. The primary foundations of providing excellent healthcare are the recording and consistent updating of data such as expenses, stock, patient diagnosis, treatment plans, and outcomes over long periods of time. Business intelligence tools help to alleviate the constant burden of data maintenance. Making it mutually beneficial for patients to have faster access to healthcare services and for healthcare professionals to be more serviceable with immediate access to information. Notably, improvements in healthcare technology are constantly encouraging more complex methods of completing straightforward tasks in the clinical, administrative, and medical fields. Therefore, it is believed that technological Business Intelligence tools will aid in the healthcare system’s transition from paper-based environments to entirely electronic environments. However, because this change does not occur immediately, some hybrid systems are discovered to frequently exist.

A paper-based clinic, which refers to one in which data is recorded and stored exclusively in a physical, tangible state, uses the most traditional method of data entry. Examples of documents that might contain a patient’s clinical, financial, and medical data include doctor’s notes, patient invoices, and prescriptions.=The use of paper is preferred by users who may lack computer literacy, as well as the fact that paper-based documents are required and considered ‘official’ by law.

According to RioMed’s market research, 71.8% of surveyed doctors still use traditional methods of recording, while only 28.2% use electronic recording. This demonstrates that, even in more technologically advanced times, the vast majority of practitioners still prefer paper-based documentation.

Paper-based documentation has the disadvantages of requiring physical storage space, limiting document sharing (via courier or fax), being difficult to edit, and being prone to damage. According to RioMed’s survey, only 89 of surveyed doctors in Trinidad and Tobago use electronic patient records, compared to 165 who do not. Furthermore, 125 doctors stated that they currently have over 4000 patient records. Managing and navigating such a massive amount of data, unique to each patient, must be exhausting. As a result, incorporating technological Business Intelligence tools can boost the efficiency of this ongoing documentation process. Furthermore, paper-based documentation is inefficient because stationary items must be purchased to use this system. These shortcomings gave rise to the electronic documentation environment.

Passwords for authorised users can protect data from prying eyes, a feature that is more difficult to implement when recorded on paper. This system, though, is not without flaws. In order to successfully navigate the electronic environment, users must be computer literate. In addition, malware can corrupt data, but retrieving lost or corrupted files electronically is simpler than doing so with paper-based documentation.

Finally, electronic documentation is not always recognised by law as “official” or “original.” As a result, some businesses opt to use hybrid documentation, whereby they combine electronic data entry with some paper-based components that are used only as needed.

Considering the current state of technology and the pros and cons of each type of documentation, it is clear that business intelligence will become more prominent in the coming years.

Business Intelligence, in particular, is quite influential in determining key data trends that are required for decision-making for various aspects of small clinic management.

Part two of this blog explains in detail why Business Intelligence is essential for running a small clinic successfully. Contact RioMed Ltd for more information on how Business Intelligence can be used in your organization. Explore Cellma and read our blogs

Small clinics are being transformed by business intelligence.

This blog is the second instalment of “Business Intelligence Transforming Small Clinics,” which was previously published on our website.

To summarise, technological Business Intelligence is making significant advances in the world today. More importantly, advances in Business Intelligence in the medical sector will vastly improve the clinical experience for doctors and patients in the future.

By managing data capture, expenses, pharmaceuticals, and patient behaviour, a healthcare information system implemented in a clinical setting can improve the satisfactory provision of healthcare services.

To begin, data management is critical for the efficient delivery of healthcare services. A healthcare information system can help with basic appointment scheduling.This reduces the likelihood of overlapping appointments, overcrowding in waiting rooms, and even allows patients to be reminded of their appointments directly on their phones. Aside from administrative functions, a healthcare IT system can serve as the primary repository for all clinical data. As mentioned in the previous blog, electronic patient records are easier to collect, store, protect, update, and navigate than paper-based records. On a single device, doctors can access and edit any patient’s record. Furthermore, test results can be sent directly to the doctor’s device, allowing for instant diagnosis. As a result, patients receive a diagnosis and treatment plan much faster than previously.

This reduces the possibility of overlapping appointments, waiting room overcrowding, and even allows patients to be reminded of their appointments directly on their phones. Aside from administrative functions, a healthcare information technology system can serve as the central repository for all clinical data. Electronic patient records, as mentioned in the previous blog, are easier to collect, store, protect, update, and navigate than paper-based records. Doctors can access and edit any patient’s record from a single device. Additionally, test results can be sent directly to the doctor’s device, allowing for immediate diagnosis. As a result, patients now receive a diagnosis and treatment plan much more quickly than in the past.

Furthermore, pharmaceuticals play an important role in health. Dispensing systems, stock monitoring, and alerting of patient reactions to medication can all benefit from technological business intelligence. Medication is critical to patients’ health improvement. Notably, errors at the point of prescription or dispensing account for over one million injuries and deaths in the United States. Because the digital platform notifies clinicians of patient allergies or previous reactions, using a healthcare information system can save lives. Furthermore, stocks are constantly monitored, and alerts are sent when a certain baseline value is reached. An order indication for drugs from suppliers. This ensures that medication is always on hand to fill prescriptions. Even more so, the stock-tracking process generates a continuous scale that clinicians can use to assess population trends. For instance, a steady increase in the number of diabetic medication prescriptions may indicate a rise in the prevalence of diabetes. As a result, more stock needs to be ordered due to the medication’s rising demand. A single healthcare IT system can easily handle these features.

Last but not least, monitoring how patients respond to their treatment plans is crucial for enhancing the quality of healthcare. Long-term records of patient behaviour and treatment development are possible. This establishes whether modifications need to be made, whether further treatment is necessary, and whether the condition has been successfully treated. Trends in patient behaviour on a larger scale may suggest additional research. Drugs that are consistently unsuccessful can be looked into for potential improvements. A rise in the number of people seeking care for a specific illness, like cholera, may indicate a social or environmental problem. Recognizing these trends can also result in international inventions that improve healthcare globally.

According to a RioMed survey, 162 practises in Trinidad and Tobago said they were prepared to use medical software in their facilities. Without a doubt, this demonstrates how technological advancements in business intelligence will advance healthcare in the years to come.

Given the advantages of business intelligence in the delivery of healthcare, get in touch with RioMed for more details on how to set up your healthcare facility and enjoy the benefits of putting in place a healthcare information system. You can read our blogs and look at other products, including Cellma, one of our top-notch creations.

What exactly is Diabetes?

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs when the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin or when the body fails to effectively use the insulin that is produced. Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood glucose levels. Diabetes is a group of diseases that affect how the body uses blood sugar (glucose). Glucose is an important energy source for muscles and tissue cells. It is also the brain’s primary source of fuel.

Diabetes is classified into the following types:

Insulin Dependence in Type 1 Diabetes. Insulin Resistance is a symptom of type 2 diabetes. Type 3 diabetes is also known as brain diabetes. Diabetes During Gestation — Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults During Pregnancy (LADA). Type 1 diabetes with insulin resistance.

The most common types of diabetes are type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes, also known as insulin-dependent diabetes or childhood diabetes, is distinguished by low insulin production and necessitates daily insulin administration. Type 1 diabetes has no known cause and is not preventable. Type 2 diabetes is caused by the body’s inefficient use of insulin, also known as noninsulin-dependent diabetes or adult-onset diabetes. Many diabetics worldwide suffer from type 2 diabetes, which is primarily caused by excess body weight and physical inactivity.

The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that people achieve and maintain a healthy body weight; be physically active — at least 30 minutes of regular, moderate-intensity activity on most days — to help prevent type 2 diabetes and its complications. It is preferable to combine medical efforts with technological advancements to effectively manage and control this lifestyle disease.

What exactly is Diabetes Management software and how does it help?

Diabetes management software is in high demand because of its accuracy and user convenience. One way to improve Diabetes service is to implement a diabetes medical information management system. This will enable data facilitation and analysis within diabetes teams through audits of practice and health assessments. Furthermore, routine uploading of glucometers and insulin pumps in outpatient clinics allows staff and patients to collaborate on joint analyses of patient blood glucose trends.

Diabetes management software is a collection of applications that can help patients and doctors track and monitor their diabetes. Diabetes management software, with its numerous mobile and desktop applications, is gaining traction in the healthcare industry. Diabetes management software is used on personal computers, mobile phones, tablets, and other digital assistants to track, monitor, and manage the level of diabetes.

Diabetes Information Management Software is required.

Due to the sedentary lifestyle and rising prevalence of diabetes, diabetes management software is gaining popularity in the healthcare sector and is available in a wide range of mobile and desktop applications.

Demand for diabetes management software in self/home healthcare settings is primarily driven by the ease of using it at home, the usability of contemporary digital equipment for diabetes diagnostics, and the simplicity of sharing data with specialists via digital platforms.

The more technologically savvy younger generation prefers cloud-based enterprise solutions for managing diabetes over going to doctors to check blood sugar levels. In the coming years, demand for digital diabetes management solutions is also anticipated to increase due to rising per capita income.

In conclusion, diabetes can lead to a buildup of sugars in the blood, raising the risk of serious complications like heart disease and stroke. Early detection is made possible by inexpensive blood glucose testing. It is advised that patients and healthcare facilities use technology to ensure proper disease management for this slowly poisonous disease. The functionalities and user-friendly interface of Cellma will support effective diabetic management. Keep checking back for Part 2 of this blog.

With a few clicks, it assists healthcare professionals by making dialysis treatments safer and more efficient. Machine integration enables the quick exchange of data between devices, as well as the generation of personalised bills and the management of subsequent patient visits.

[scrumptioustigercollector]

What is a Dialysis Information Management System and how does it work?

RioMed Limited was founded as a management consulting firm on November 19, 1997. RioMed Limited was founded on the fundamental tenet of “Working to Improve Healthcare.” RioMed’s knowledge of software solutions ensures efficient practice management. Cellma, the clinical software developed by RioMed, has proven to be a valuable healthcare information system that can be customized and tailored to the needs of any healthcare organization. The multifaceted approach of Cellma assists any healthcare organization in meeting the needs of various facets.

Last week’s article went into great detail about Diabetes Management. Diabetes is the leading cause of kidney disease, so the two are inextricably linked. One in every three diabetic adults has kidney disease. High blood glucose, also known as blood sugar, can harm your kidney’s blood vessels. Blood vessels that are damaged do not function properly. Many diabetics develop high blood pressure, which can harm their kidneys and lead to kidney failure. Dialysis is advised for patients who have kidney failure.

What exactly is dialysis?

According to the NHS, dialysis is used to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly. It frequently entails redirecting blood to a cleaning machine. This usually occurs when you have only 10 to 15% of your kidney function remaining. The kidney normally filters the blood, removing harmful waste products and excess fluid and converting it to urine, which is then excreted from the body.

Kidney dialysis is divided into two types: hemodialysis, which uses a special filter to purify the blood, and peritoneal dialysis, which uses a tube in the stomach and a special membrane to filter blood.

Blood flows slowly through a special filter during hemodialysis, removing waste and fluid before returning clean blood to the body. This dialysis treatment aids in the control of high blood pressure and the balance of chemicals in the body, such as potassium and sodium. Once a month, the blood will be tested to ensure that the dialysis treatments are effectively removing waste from the blood.

In contrast, a soft plastic tube (catheter) is inserted into your stomach during surgery in Peritoneal Dialysis. This catheter is used to insert a sterile cleansing fluid into your stomach. The fluid exits your body via the catheter after the filtering process is completed.

What role can technological interference play in dialysis management?

Only dialysis doctors and caregivers understand how meticulously kidney patients are treated. Both nephrologists and nurses in dialysis centers face the challenge of providing dependable and efficient care by clinical guidelines. Because practitioners don’t have to spend as much time maintaining control over healthcare practices, all-in-one software helps to deliver quality care to every patient.

The digitalization of dialysis is one of the most recent medical developments. Technological interference enables task automation, allowing doctors and nurses to devote more time to individual patient care.

Thus, the most compatible system designed for comprehensive data collection and medical information is Dialysis Software. It simplifies the Dialysis specialty hospital workflow and makes doctors’ lives easier (nephrologists). Because doctors can now focus on treating patients rather than maintaining control over healthcare practices, the all-in-one software helps to deliver quality care to every patient.

Dialysis software is responsible for managing patient data such as dialysis routines, documentation, and data storage. With a few clicks, it assists healthcare professionals by making dialysis treatments safer and more efficient. Machine integration enables the quick exchange of data between devices, as well as the generation of personalized bills and the management of subsequent patient visits. Digital software expedites the process while also vastly improving healthcare practices and treatment quality. The most important factor in providing enhanced patient care as a continuous care system is sharing real-time information and managing subsequent patient visits.

How do Patients Benefit?

Three to five hours of hemodialysis is usually performed three times per week. Dialysis patients can read, watch TV, sleep, or do other things while receiving treatment. To accommodate these lengthy treatment sessions, patients’ schedules must be adjusted. To establish a regular schedule, most patients prefer to have their treatments done at the same time.

The software system is extremely beneficial to doctors in assisting them with digital moves for healthcare practice management. It aids in the improvement of control and the acquisition of real-time reporting. An auto-generated prescription, digital billing, and auto-generated reports are provided to a patient, resulting in increased staff productivity and the elimination of time-consuming manual scheduling.

Dialysis Software Benefits:

The following are some of the most noticeable characteristics:

Getting Patients Registered Electronic Prescriptions Dialysis Visit Schedule Dialysis Treatment Plan Sheets Barcode integration Appointment Scheduling with Barcode Integration Appointment Scheduling Discharge Summary Notification via SMS/emails Information Reports Patient Records

About Cellma’s Dialysis Management Software

Cellma, RioMed’s powerful software solution, possesses these characteristics. Cellma oversees the entire dialysis patient experience, from referrals to appointments and scheduling.

Improved practice management with medical billing software

Every country’s operation requires a health-care system, which includes people, institutions, and resources. Its overarching goal is to meet the health needs of the population. Healthcare professionals play an important role in a wide range of medical services, including identifying, diagnosing, treating, and managing acute and chronic diseases. Healthcare systems are grappling with how to provide high-quality services to an increasing number of older adults in an era of limited financial and workforce resources. Many people are aware that the current healthcare delivery system is unsustainable due to rising costs and a shortage of nurses and other healthcare workers.

WHAT IS MEDICINE BILLING SOFTWARE?

Telemedicine is now at the heart of all caregiving approaches. Telehealth is now viewed as the future of healthcare, rather than a band-aid solution to meet healthcare needs during the pandemic. Telehealth options are consistently aligned with custom healthcare solutions and integrated care solutions.

Medical billing software is used by healthcare providers as an automation tool to assist with billing tasks, patient insurance tracking, claims, and payment processing. Medical billing software also referred to as hospital billing software automates invoicing and payment collection. This includes creating invoices for orders, invoicing templates for various types of invoices, electronic billing, and assisting with the claims process.

HOW CAN EFFECTIVE MEDICAL BILLING SOFTWARE ASSIST?

Medical billing software can provide consistently aligned telehealth options, custom healthcare solutions, and integrated care solutions. Hospital billing software, like other technological advancements, has aided in the transformation of medical practices. One of the primary functions of medical billing software is to assist in the reduction of manual paperwork, which is time-consuming and prone to errors. 40% of medical bills contain errors, which cost either the hospital or the patient. It is the backbone of the revenue management cycle because if medical billing operations are inefficient, a healthcare facility will struggle to stay profitable and ultimately deliver high-quality care. The software is also necessary for improving customer satisfaction and experience. Patients will value working with you more if they can obtain services without physically visiting a single health facility.

SOME ESSENTIAL MEDICAL BILLING SOFTWARE FEATURES

Connects to Other Elements of the Healthcare System: Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are rapidly becoming indispensable components of the healthcare industry. Medical billing software should be compatible with any hospital or practice management system. By combining these systems, users will benefit from a unified platform that will serve as a single source of facts, reducing information gaps and always providing a complete overview of patients. As a result, the entire medical staff gains much-needed efficiency and saves time. For a more seamless experience, medical billing software should be integrated with accounting software.

Business intelligence and automated data reporting: Financial reports, patient documentation, and claims reporting are frequently required and should be easily accessible to provide efficient medical billing services. Strong reporting technologies enable a more streamlined workflow between caregiving and billing, increasing overall efficiency. Medical billing is a profitable sector of the healthcare industry. As a result, to be profitable, business intelligence capabilities are required. Medical billing software should be able to do the following in terms of reporting: Maintain a record of all outstanding bills and claims. Run patient statements and send collection notices as needed. Maintain a record of payments and refunds. Keep track of the revenue generated by your practice. Carry out critical financial reports Create daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and even yearly reports.

Medical Claims Management: Medical claims management informs patients about the amount they owe the hospital. Although the process is manual, it is time-consuming and prone to errors. Electronic claims processing reduces the possibility of error and enables more efficient and faster claim submission. Managing insurance claims and their status can be time-consuming and result in payment delays. Claim management should include the following aspects:

Claims are processed electronically. Claim tracking and processing electronically History of claims Claims reconciliation Insurance company directory

Payment options: Good medical billing software accepts a wide range of payment methods. The revenue cycle system must be adaptable enough to accommodate patient requests for cash or credit cards. As the payment mode of the future, a revenue cycle management system that accepts credit card payments is required. Flexible payment options significantly improve hospital management, whether during healthcare scheduling or post-care payment. When financial management is integrated into the core functionality of an integrated healthcare system, it has the potential to significantly increase healthcare payments.

Here are some of the most important features of medical billing software; there are many more that have yet to be discussed. However, the only fact that will be highlighted with each additional feature discussed is that medical billing software ensures practice management efficiency. Several factors influence the strengths of medical billing software. Its functional outcomes have an impact on patient satisfaction, repeat visits, and overall revenue generation. A user-friendly interface with healthcare cloud-based data storage that includes the features listed above is a sure-fire model for increasing overall profits.

5 technology trends in healthcare information management

Electronic Medical Records EPR, also known as Electronic Medical Records, are digital records of patient data/information such as assessments, allergies, examinations, prescription details, and diagnoses. It enables instant access by both a physician and the patient at any time and from any location. As a result, the patient gains more control over their health. Cellma not only considers patient safety but also includes several toThese alerts and updates are generated automatically and can be delivered via mobile app, text message, or email. Users can ensure that their information is stored on the correct record for review thanks to policies such as "one patient, one record." Consultations via video Video conferencing is one method of promoting alternatives to traditional face-to-face consultations as healthcare becomes more digitalized. During the Covid-19 pandemic, doctors were required to see patients even though everyone was quarantined. Patients can now not only meet with clinicians from all over the world, but they can do so from the comfort of their own homes.ols that make the use of EPRs very efficient and simple. These include an alert system to avoid risks such as the administration of incompatible drugs, as well as staff reminders of patients who need follow-ups or special services. Cellma has associated platforms that allow patients to schedule video consultations that both parties can join via a link provided. It makes scheduling appointments very simple. If necessary, a decision to meet in person can be made based on a video consultation. As previously stated, this gives patients more control over their health while also centralising all aspects of their medical history. Cellma's mobile app facilitates appointment registration and booking. Confirmation and reminders can be sent automatically via email or text. Communication that is integrated: Although communication between the patient and the doctor is essential and made easier by video conferencing, internal communication between staff and the practitioner and/or the patient is also required. Emails, text messages, and even Whatsapp help with this. It makes updating records and communicating within clinics and hospitals much easier and more efficient. Once the data has been accurately updated, it is made available to anyone who requires it.Mobile Access and Patient Portals Patients have access to a forum through the patient portal. With the use of their mobile device, they can register themselves and book multiple appointments with multiple practitioners. This means that in the event of an emergency, one can quickly access their diagnosis, documents, treatment plan, and medications by pressing a single button.Access to User Roles and Confidentiality Certain safeguards must be implemented to ensure maximum security and confidentiality on this online platform. User access in Cellma is granted via usernames and passwords provided at the time of registration. Cellma can be accessed by patients through specific modules designed to capture patient-reported outcomes and expectation measures. Users with appropriate access rights, privileges, and user-defined security levels, as defined in Cellma's Admin module, will be able to access information to which they have rights. As a result, users are correctly identified and matched with their data. Users must log in with a username and password that are stored in an encrypted format.For more information on the details of

Benefits of video consultations vs physical consultations for mental health patients

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a global onslaught of mental health issues. See our previous blog on Workplace Mental Health: How Technology Can Help. The reasons ranged from isolation and changes in daily structure to financial stress and job-related and unemployment-related factors. However, there was one positive outcome of the pandemic that should be investigated further. The use of Telemedicine options, specifically video conferencing, to address mental health concerns and maintain counseling services for those who wish to access them. Apps such as Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams have become popular modes of communication in schools and businesses, but they have also proven helpful in mental health services. Although both patients were confined to their homes, mental healthcare professionals were able to meet with them virtually. Even though the world has reopened, this method of meeting those suffering from mental health issues should not be discontinued for a variety of reasons. Here are some advantages of using remote services instead of in-person sessions for mental health patients. It saves time because neither party has to commute to and from appointments. It is also mobile, which may encourage more people to seek the assistance they require. Meetings can take place anywhere, at any time, and are more easily accessible. There would be less room for excuses because meetings could occur in a vehicle on the way to another location. Patients can attend meetings in an environment where they feel comfortable sharing and opening up honestly about their difficulties. The home provides a familiar and relaxed environment as opposed to a new and strange environment; this is especially important for first-time patients. The ability to record the session (once authorized by both parties) so that any activities to complete or review can be accessed is an additional feature that may benefit both the doctor and the patient. Because virtual sessions are so intimate, patients may believe that the therapist or mental health professional is paying more attention to them or is more focused on the session. Virtual Mental Health sessions should therefore be expanded to meet the needs of both patients and professionals by introducing websites or apps dedicated to video consultations for mental health patients. Waiting rooms for sessions can sometimes be more intimidating than the visit itself. Furthermore, with remote sessions, patients can multitask while waiting for their consultation. Remote sessions can also help to increase patient participation in the session. Patients can refer to various materials or resources during their sessions by using screen sharing. Physical consultations should not be eliminated, either, because further assessments may require the physical presence of patients, and some people simply prefer face-to-face meetings. The beauty of choice, on the other hand, is crucial. Patients can select the best situation for them. Through its Telemedicine module, Cellma's functionality enables video consultations between patients and doctors. Contact us today to learn how this functionality can be tailored to your needs.

To recap, there are four different types of digital transformation processes. Because process transformation and business transformation were discussed in the first blog, we will now move on to domain transformation and cultural/organizational transformation.
