How aMedlineNET
addresses the needs |
|
Overall minimization in administrative
overheads of cooperation with affiliated organizations in the Network |
The
aMedLineNET system makes cooperation
in the Network simple and automated reducing thus administrative
overheads. All network members' work on the same patient files and as a
result the procedure of data exchange and communication is automated to
a great extent. |
|
Reduction of operating expenses in the
clearance of insurance claims from various affiliated organizations
|
Via the
aMedLineNET system, the insurance
organization can receive homogeneous reports of insurance claims from
all Network members. The system automates the clearance of insurance
claims and as a result administrative costs and burden are greatly
reduced for all parties involved. |
|
Transparency in clearances of insurance
claims |
The
aMedLineNET software can enable the
insurance organization to conduct automated medical audit, that is
monitoring of compatibility between care services and ordered
examinations, prescriptions, etc.
Given the multitude and variety of statistical reports that can be
issued from the system, the insurance institution may, at any time,
conduct automated but thorough checks to a large amount of data like,
i.e.:
- Whether active ingredients of prescribed drugs are compatible with
diagnosis.
- The distribution of referrals from one doctor to other colleagues
in the network
- The necessity of referral of a patient to a specialist doctor.
- The necessity of hospitalization
- The compatibility between medical examinations ordered and the
diagnosis of the doctor

Avoidance of high expenses due to travel
of patients overseas |
Τhe
aMedLineNET system makes expensive travels of patients abroad to visit
healthcare specialists as well as the invitation of specialists from
abroad unnecessary. The full MHR of the beneficiary can be
electronically transferred to affiliated specialists abroad, which can
conduct accurate diagnosis by having at their disposal the full patient
history. |
|
Protection of privileged information |
The aMedLineNET software fully supports and
even enhances protection of patient data from unauthorized use. Over and
above the security mechanisms regarding the user rights on access and
modification of patient files and the data encryption capacity, the
aMedLineNET Health Card guarantees
total security since it provides access to the MHR only if and when the
patient enters his or her PIN. |
|
Avoidance of
expensive trips abroad for expert opinion |
The aMedLineNETsystem allows the provision of
advanced telemedicine services that enable experts to conduct accurate
diagnosis without actually see the patient.
Via the telediagnosis process, the
aMedLineNET MHR makes available medical history of the patient including
actual medical data at the site of any affiliated medical expert. In
this way, the medical expert can conduct diagnosis with high accuracy
regardless of his or her physical location, which might be in another
city or even in another country. |
|
Avoidance of bureaucratic hassle
and delays in the clearance of insurance claims |
The health
network automatically processes insurance claims without burdening the
beneficiary. The aMedLineNET system automates the process of patient
charges and insurance claims. This automatic process takes place with
the provision of services from any doctor, medical center, hospital or
clinical lab of the health network. |
