Success Stories
Picis’ systems are installed in more than 1,700 hospitals worldwide. Picis' open technology, device connectivity, system interoperability, clinical expertise and data analysis tools are reasons for the company's success and widespread acceptance in hospitals around the world.
Inova Fair Oaks is the first hospital in the Inova Health network to convert its ED to Picis' electronic documentation system, a move that radically streamlines the management of 42,000 emergency cases annually and the countless reams of paper they generated. Eliminating heft and hassle are just two of the goals. "The difference (with Picis) is like night and day."

“I thought Picis CareSuite® was the right thing to do for patient care. The continuity of care is absolutely critical. The impact is seen in efficiency and enhanced decision making. You expedite information, avoid duplication and develop an accurate record of data in high acuity areas, and this enhances patient care.”

“Mount Sinai has seen improvement in both hospital and physician billing from ED PulseCheck. Thanks to enhanced charge capture, physician revenue increased from $2.5 million to about $8 million in 2007. Likewise, hospital revenue jumped from $9.8 million to a projected $14 million.”

Nothing Measured, Nothing Gained
“Our emergency department had an initial return on investment in six months by saving $175,000 in coding and dictation costs a year when we reassigned our five member dictation team to other departments. Plus, when we began capturing charge data electronically at the point of care, we doubled our capture of charges monthly from $800,000 to $1.6 million. This also helps reduce denials for reimbursement and allows us to bill payers faster.”

“Within 9 months of going live, we reduced the billing days from 3-5 days to 1 day and cut average late charges by $117,000 a month. Our OR revenue has jumped 35 percent and is rising steadily. That is enough to keep us impressed with the system for a while!”

Stitching Up Surgical Costs
“When we came up live we finally had the tools to analyze how we were doing things and that’s when our process improvement really started. Before when you are on paper, it is very difficult to measure. This allowed us to see what we were doing real time.”
