Unibased Systems Architecture, a provider of integrated client/server and Web-based solutions to healthcare organizations, announced its agreement with Bay Area Hospital (BAH) to expand the use of the ForSite2020 application suite.
As part of the agreement with BAH, ForSite2020 application suite will be expanded to include ForSite2020 Resource Management System (RMS) for enterprise scheduling and access management, ForSite2020 Consumer Access & Scheduling for Healthcare (CASH) consumer portal for patient self-scheduling, and the ForSite2020 Fax Order Collection Utilization & Storage (FOCUS) fax management solution addressing faxed physician orders.
“BAH is undertaking a major outpatient service expansion so we decided that this is the right time to expand our scheduling capabilities as well, enabling total outpatient service and surgical procedure coordination for our patients and physician offices,” said Brenda Curtner, BAH Director, Clinical Informatics (News - Alert), in a statement.
After an extensive evaluation, BAH chose Unibased to manage enterprise scheduling and access management across outpatient service expansion. Unibased solutions will also be used for enabling patient self-scheduling via the Internet for streamlined coordination of care and enhanced interoperability.
“Bay Area Hospital has done a tremendous job of taking full advantage of the capabilities in the ForSite2020 ORMS surgery management solution and Unibased is looking forward to assisting BAH in doing the same with the rest of the ForSite2020 application suite,” said Phil Amelung, principal consultant with Unibased.
“Bay Area Hospital’s decision to move forward with Unibased not only reflects their desire to acquire the most functional solution available but is also a testament to the close partnership we have built based on trust and top notch service as well as the tight integration we have achieved with Siemens (News
- Alert) MedSeries4,” Amelung added.
Recently, Unibased announced it received the "Best in KLAS" Award for the market segment of Enterprise Scheduling for the 9th consecutive year. The award reflects outstanding product quality, system reliability and support, and unmatched client satisfaction, according to company officials.
