Hello, I'm Nathaniel, Nursing Informatics Master and Project Manager at Vila Wellbeing.
Recently, we held a meeting with five key stakeholders to review our current health information
system and gather feedback on potential improvements. In this overview, I'll outline the main
points, outcomes, and forthcoming system adjustments.
SF

In my role, I strive to enhance healthcare accessibility, alleviate professional burdens, and

bolster health outcomes. The proposed changes aim to achieve these objectives within a five to
six-month timeframe, encompassing training sessions, pilot testing, and ongoing discussions.
External factors such as an aging population, increasing chronic illnesses, and the persistent
R

COVID-19 pandemic have driven the need for these modifications to ensure cutting-edge
medical care in a conducive setting.

Key Points and Discussions

Assessing the Current and Desired State of the Data System: Stakeholders voiced concerns
N

about the current system's limitations in patient tracking and communication, leading to potential
safety issues and treatment delays. While the system has improved cost management and data
availability, stakeholders feel that upgrades are needed to provide exemplary care in a
contemporary facility.

Identifying and Mitigating Risks: Stakeholders highlighted the absence of remote patient
monitoring (RPM) and patient portals, affecting triage and access to care, particularly in rural
and pandemic-affected areas. The lack of RPM also poses challenges in maintaining continuous
care for conditions like diabetes and hypertension.

Establishing Best Practices for Data System Users: RPM is endorsed to ensure treatment
continuity during the pandemic, benefiting patients with chronic ailments. Patient portals
promote self-management, satisfaction, and early detection of patient needs.

Technology Implementation: Stakeholders agreed on integrating RPM applications into devices

m
for remote monitoring and facilitating access to patient portals.

Workflow and Communication: RPM technologies are expected to streamline workflows, offer
personalized support, increase patient engagement, and improve communication by alerting

o
professionals of abnormal parameters.

.c
Data Management: Centralized data storage in patient portals can streamline processes for
providers and patients, eliminating the need to switch between multiple systems.
PX
Practices and Outcomes: RPM holds promise for remote patient monitoring, particularly for
aging populations and those with chronic conditions. Modern technologies enable contactless
monitoring, enhancing patient care and reducing hospital admissions.

Conclusion
SF

The pressing need to expand evidence-based RPM technologies is underscored by the surge in
COVID-19 cases and emerging variants. RPM can aid symptomatic patients and ensure
treatment continuity, thereby enhancing healthcare delivery.
