Surgery Intake and Tracking System Boosts Efficiency, Patient Safety, Bottom Line
Overview Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) is Tennessee's largest and most prestigious medical facility. A decade ago, its anesthesiologists initiated the development of an easy-to-use, electronic anesthesia documentation solution that has evolved into a comprehensive patient information system specialized for acuity care. Called VPIMS, the solution was developed using Microsoft software and runs on the Windows Server 2003 operating system and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 database software. Using VPIMS, VUMC staff members have been able to improve patient care by having quick access to accurate patient data. The hospital has also improved its bottom line by making staff more efficient, reducing surgery delays, reducing administrative work, and improving billing accuracy. By analyzing data generated by VPIMS, VUMC continues to improve on all metrics.
