Advantages include:

• Improved Patient Outcomes – Customized visit documentation helps you efficiently meet the needs of your patients. Through tightly integrated assessments and care plans, you can generate patient-specific documentation while maintaining consistency of care across the agency. Guidelines and "helpful hints" assist in the coordination of care between clinicians. The care plan is dynamic and continues to build based upon changes in the patient's condition from visit to visit.
• Enhanced Documentation of Care – Caretinuum understands that documentation extends beyond the visit in the home. The ability to document clinical team conferences as well as phone calls with the patient or physician greatly aids in the coordination of care for the patient. While promoting consistency of care across the agency, Caretinuum’s flexibility allows you to modify the assessment at the patient level and add care plan items as you are delivering care.
• Customization – Caretinuum gives agency administrators the ability to implement their own standards of care by customizing assessments. This is accomplished through the use of skip logic, compulsory questions and validation rules. Care plan elements are also completely customizable. Dynamic links between the assessment and the care plan can be established to build the plan of care based on the patient’s specific needs.
• Assessment Validation – Multidisciplinary, integrated OASIS and non-OASIS assessments make it easy for the clinician to record changes in patient status during visits. Using Caretinuum’s unique "Smart Navigation" tool, the clinician has the ability to identify and correct OASIS errors at the point of care for immediate assessment validation. Changes can be easily assigned to the appropriate area of the assessment without leaving the current screen or impeding the caregiver’s workflow.
• Complete Capture of Visit Activity – It is important for clinicians to document all their incurred costs. Caretinuum’s activity log collects information for both patient-related and non-patient activities, including supplies and travel expenses. Data can be easily uploaded to the office for fast, accurate input into billing and payroll. This promotes accuracy, eliminates time-consuming data entry by office personnel and generates a complete record for cost and productivity reporting.
