Reducing length of stay, readmission rates and the cost of care for
VHA, Georgia hospitals
Atlanta, GA April 4,
2012 - Care Logistics®, the creator of
the Hospital Operating SystemTM Solution, announces its
marketing collaboration with Phoenix Health Care Management
Services, Inc. to offer an innovative and market leading solution
to dramatically increase the operating efficiency of VHA Georgia
member hospitals. This comprehensive approach combines a
leadership mindset curriculum, system wide process reengineering
and enterprise logistics software to help hospitals achieve
reliable and predictive operational performance in the areas of
throughput, quality and experience.
"The Hospital Operating System Solution was
brought to my attention by one of our member hospitals, the Medical
Center of Central Georgia, in a presentation they gave on the goals
of the partnership they had embarked on with Care
Logistics®," said Richard Howerton, President and
Chief Executive Officer, Phoenix Health Care Management Services,
Inc. and VHA Georgia, Inc. "Care Logistics® has
a very innovative solution that is already significantly affecting
MCCG's approach to managing its operational effort to deliver
care. Based on what Care Logistics® has done for
its customers so far, I am certain a number of our members can
transform their operations and enjoy remarkable results."
Hospitals who already utilize the Care
Logistics® Hospital Operating System are better able
to integrate all the clinical and non-clinical patient movements
and order executions occurring in their operations to achieve
optimal patient throughput and length of stay, while enhancing
overall patient satisfaction and care delivery quality.
"As an Atlanta based company, we are very proud
to be working with Phoenix Health Care to establish more
partnerships in our home state," noted Karl Straub, President of
Care Logistics®. "Supported by our Hospital
Operating System and focusing on the logistics of patient care, it
will be our goal to help VHA Georgia member hospitals achieve
dramatic results in their effort to manage the costs to deliver
care in the communities they serve."
