27th August 2010
South Australian healthcare IT developer PowerHealth Solutions was proud to once again participate in the 2010 Health Informatics Conference, held 24-26th August 2010 in Melbourne.
With the theme of Informing the Business of Healthcare, this year's program was populated by notable international and national leaders to share their knowledge and experience on how e-health and health informatics is critical to meeting the challenges facing healthcare.
PowerHealth Solutions was there to showcase our hospital IT systems — costing, reporting, and Eclipse-compatible billing — and received a lot of interest from both local and overseas delegates.
Costing
Director Paul Venables said, With healthcare reform in the spotlight for Australia, activity based funding and patient billing is currently of great interest to all hospitals.
Our patient costing product dove-tails the new requirements, and will facilitate hospitals' and health departments' smooth transition into the new era.
Billing
In addition, healthcare in Australia and overseas is long overdue for an enterprise billing system. In the current financial climate and with the available technology, hospitals cannot afford the inefficiencies of maintaining multiple departmental billing systems. Our billing solution can save as much as 60% of operating costs, in addition to stopping revenue leakage through unbilled services.
Prize winners
PowerHealth raffled 2 prizes at the conference:
Shane Dawson from GP Links Wide Bay won the Sony digital camera.
Stewart Sandon from the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre won the iPod Touch.
