TransformativeMed Partners with Beebe Healthcare to Improve Operational Efficiency and Prevent Clinician BurnoutSEATTLE, Nov. 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- TransformativeMed, the leader in transforming electronic health records (EHRs) with apps directly embedded within the EHR, today announced a partnership with Beebe Healthcare (Beebe) in Delaware to improve the health system's clinical workflow efficiency, patient care communication and overall clinician experience with their electronic health record (EHR) system. Founded in 1916, Beebe Healthcare includes a 210-licensed-bed medical center as well as five outpatient locations offering an array of inpatient, outpatient, emergency and diagnostic services. Beebe's specialized service lines include cardiac and vascular, surgical services, oncology, women's health and orthopedic services. Beebe, like many health systems nationwide, has recognized the importance of preventing physician and clinician burnout by optimizing their EHR and making workflows more intuitive and productive. This emphasis is in keeping with a groundbreaking report on burnout that the National Academy of Medicine recently issued. The report, "Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout: A Systems Approach to Professional Well-Being," outlines six goals health system leaders and other stakeholders can pursue to prevent and mitigate clinician burnout and foster professional well-being, including "improving the usability and relevance of health IT" and "reduce tasks that do not improve patient care." In keeping with those oals, one of the many benefits the TransformativeMed platform will offer Beebe is saving their clinicians 45 minutes to an hour each shift because they will no longer need to print patient lists from the EHR. All the relevant data and communication tools to support their rounds will be securely available from their mobile devices. "The highest quality patient care is our top priority, and preventing burnout among our physicians and other clinicians is crucial to achieving that goal," said George Kluchnik, MD and hospitalist at Beebe Healthcare. "By making our EHR align better with our clinicians' workflows through TransformativeMed, they can spend less time with technology and more time with their patients—which improves their satisfaction as well as patient experience." Restoring Joy in Practice Beebe Healthcare is implementing three key modules from the TransformativeMed platform to improve workflow efficiency and clinician communication. Those modules are:
"We are proud to partner with a leading organization such as Beebe Healthcare that has taken the crucial step to maximize the value they receive from their EHR by improving their clinicians' satisfaction and the efficiency of their workflows," said Rodrigo Martinez, MD, Chief Clinical Officer at TransformativeMed. "As the National Academy of Medicine report points out, helping maintain or restore clinicians' well-being and joy in medicine must be a national priority. A major step forward, as Beebe has done, is to make their EHR work like their physicians work so they can spend more time caring for patients."
