Patrick Power (Director, PowerHealth Solutions) and Glen Davis (Casemix Projects Manager, NSW Health Department)
The New South Wales Health Department has awarded PowerHealth Solutions the statewide contract for performance management and costing software for all hospitals throughout its 8 area health services.
The NSW Health Department is serious about improving healthcare services, stating clear priorities and goals for the next few years, in its Towards 2010 State Health Plan. The vision for health stipulates a system that makes smart choices about the costs and benefits of health services.
PowerHealth Solutions' software is the preferred choice of Australian hospitals, as it consolidates hospital financial, clinical and operational information into business intelligence, to deliver the evidence base required by hospital executives for decisions on how to spend available funds wisely.
Mr Glen Davis, Casemix Projects Manager from NSW Health Department said, Our prior experiences with PowerHealth Solutions have been very positive, and we are impressed with their expertise in the health industry. The tender evaluation process was very competitive, and PowerHealth Solutions offers good value for money.
With PowerHealth Solutions, we will standardise costing and reporting across the state, using an already proven system. In addition, we can be more efficient with funding standards, data quality and internal auditing.
PowerHealth Solutions Senior Consultant Nigel Michell said, This is a real vote of confidence from the industry for PowerHealth Solutions, and we are rising to the challenge of completing the implementations across NSW hospitals within the next 12 months.
