Benefits and ROI

To improve your operations, you first need InSites.

Optimize resources * Maximize staff productivity * Improve patient care

By nature, hospitals are chaotic environments. With countless number of people and items moving about and interacting with one another all day every day, keeping track of it is daunting. Simple things, such as finding a staff member, patient, or piece of equipment wastes staff time and increases patient wait times. Bottlenecks created by poor turn-around and inefficient patient flow on ED or OR rooms, inpatient beds, outpatient exam rooms, and procedure areas create a ripple effect through the entire facility.

Today, real-time location technologies consisting primarily of tags, sensors, and software provide the ability to locate people, assets, inventory, and specimens instantly and reliably. The true value, however, lies in the ability to go beyond basic locating of items. The InSites Platform enables healthcare organizations to leverage location data to maximum benefit, from simple location of resources to true performance management.

  • Locate people, equipment, and inventory in real-time
  • Track the status of people, equipment, and rooms
  • Configure automatic responses using specified rules
  • Streamline workflow via automated notifications
  • Integrate with IT, communication, and building systems
  • Effectively manage and improve performance

The InSites Enterprise Visibility Platform includes location-enabled applications for Patient Flow, Asset Management, and Inventory Management as part of the subscription-based Enterprise software suite. The solution uses an open architecture approach that allows healthcare organizations to leverage the solution for a variety of uses that can be incrementally rolled out over time. As a result, the enterprise value multiplies as applications are implemented and the capabilities of the platform are leveraged.

Enabling a Lean Healthcare Environment

What does it really mean to have a “lean” healthcare environment? It means efficiency and productivity are maximized throughout your operations and costs are minimized by reducing waste and manual processes. It means patient wait times are low, staff productivity is maximized, equipment utilization is high, patient flow is streamlined, and processes are automated. What does that translate to? Increased capacity, higher revenues, lower cost, and improved patient and staff satisfaction.

With the InSites Platform, you can realize an impressive ROI with results like these:
  • Increased staff productivity by 25%
  • Increased asset utilization by 51%
  • Increased patient throughput by 40%
  • Decreased ED diversions by 82%
  • Reduced length of stay by 37%
  • Cut door to exam room time by 50%
