For Full Article Visit: http://spotlightgrowth.com/index.php/2018/09/...alth-care/
ORHub, Inc. is a Laguna Beach, California-based advanced surgical software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions provider. The company also has offices in Tempe, Arizona; Newport Beach, California; Bellevue, Washington; and Jacksonville, Florida.
Born from the “Microsoft for Start-Ups” program and hosted on their Azure cloud platform, ORHub, Inc.’s suite of products are hosted with a top-tier cloud network provider. This helps ensure the company can focus on solving the problems that plague the business of surgery.
The HIPAA-compliant platform allows health care providers to digitally capture accurate surgical records and analyze its data in real-time. “ORHub’s cloud-based software solution captures information before, during and after surgery to fill a void in the current surgical information infrastructure and provides the first platform to capture and measure the surgical process on any web-enabled device,” according to the company’s description.
The company’s surgical resource management (SRM) application is then able to automatically creates a live surgical case receipt that tracks each element of a surgical case including type of procedure, indication, and materials used that is verified by the physician and nurse. This means the report will capture everything from implants, biologocis, surgical procedures used to product’s manufacturer, utilization, and other information.
This is not only extremely convenient, but it also solves a major problem and inefficiency within the current health care climate. Health care providers are often burdened with massive amounts of paperwork and data entry, which ultimately takes time away from seeing additional patients. With the automatic live surgical records being generated, providers will see reduced costs and improved workflow, which can lead to greater quality of care for patients.
Through September 2018, ORHub, Inc. has collected data from over 5,700 surgical cases so far this year alone. The company also noted a greater than 80% physician adoption rate.
