Our  Products

 

Our Healthcare Management software product is the "International" Class InHCc Healthcare Management Information System (InHCc HMIS) .

 

The InHCc HMIS is a single integrated system designed by Healthcare Professionals with extensive experience in business best practices and efficient design creation.  It was designed and built to serve the needs of the International Markets.  

 

InHCc integrated suite of solutions are designed to easily enter data into screens based on medical protocols.

 

InHCc uses fully structured data that is codified at the Point-of-Care automatically without any intervention from the Healthcare Professional.  

 

The InHCc coding system is based on International Standards that not only includes medical standards but also standards developed for Economic, Social, Education, and many others by International Standard Organizations. It is not solely build on any country centric coding system but rather from International work that has taken place over the years.

Our Services

 

The InHCc Management Techniques Provides the education for Managers to use the InHCc HMIS System

Give me a good manager and I will change your results. 

InHCc Consulting provides education and advisory services to Health Care Organizations and their personnel at every level.

We believe that User Training and Understanding is the key to a successful experience. Employees at Healthcare are not robots but decision makers that need to know why and how to work more efficiently and effectively.

While many of our competitors make a point of "rapid deployment", the InHCc System is implemented in phases when the user fully understands what the system can do and how to do it.

 

InHCc System

The InHCc System is designed to capture data at the point of care. Data is collected using pre-formed data entry screens that provide data sets that are standardized for the function.

 

Collectively, our InHCc System offers managers the ability to:

  • Determine where the organization “Is” by measuring the six key operational dimensions of health care,

    • access

    • effectiveness

    • efficiency

    • equity

    • quality

    • sustainability

    • innovation and improvement

  • Provide an understanding of the social and health requirements of populations and sub-populations within selected geographic areas,

  • Manage the health and well-being of those populations, 

  • Help the population understand their own health needs and how to care for themselves,

  • Manage the day-to-day operation of the organization,

  • Develop an understanding of the changes taking place in the Health Status of the population,

  • Provide an on going evaluation of the organization’s performance against its goals

  • Provide an on going evaluation of the organization’s performance against policies set by the National Health Section 

  • Demonstrate the value of products and services to the community and other stakeholders

  • Support  Research

  • Provides information to calculate trends and predict the future

Whereas measurements of the key dimensions may tell organizations where they are, it does not tell them where they are going or how to get there. Because the real world is dynamic and changes are continuous, the InHCc HMIS provides data such that all information is evaluated continuously, over time, over locations, calculates trends and predict the future no matter what the starting point.

 

The InHCc System maps the relationships between the individual’s health status, changes in socio-economic factors like education, unemployment, housing, and single parent households, to changes in the organization’s processes, to health sector reform, to research, and then back to the health care of the individual. It is a never-ending dynamic process measured in real time.

Challenges and Solutions

This Web Site section will discussion how the InHCc system can solve many of the Challenges that exist in today's health systems.

InHCc attempts to address all issues of healthcare "Reform." Some of which are:

 

Our Technology

“Business Intelligence” is fundamentally about providing the right information, at the right time, to the right individual…The right information can save the life of an individual or can substantially reduce his pain and suffering.

Our Software application, InHCc's HMIS System is built using Microsoft's Visual Basic .NET and designed using Microsoft Health Framework as a model

InHCc HMIS uses a scalable three-tier architecture designed that provides for the system to be installed in locations where there is No Internet (in one of our locations, 30% of the units do not even have electricity!), or it can be scaled up to a National Centralized data warehouse.

We use Microsoft Business Intelligent (BI) products extensively in our application products. Microsoft's Analysis Services and Data Mining are integrated into the system for analysis and research. Web services serve as the presentation tool for Analytical reports.

Using a single framework, allows the institution to ensure compatibility between departments, reduces training costs, and provides an centrally located monitoring system. 

InHCc Technology

Implementation

InHCc believes that the key to the success of any IT system is the training of the users. Specially difficult is the training of individuals that have never used a computer system.

We at InHCc supply a complete implementation package that includes not only the hardware but also the training program. We teach users not only "How" to use the system but also "Why" the information they collect can save human lives.

InHCc Implementation

Household and Client

It seems that most systems forget about the patient and most importantly, the household. At InHCc we put the Household first. The Client is a member of this household and we treat the Household as a Unit of Care. In many developing countries, it is InHCc's estimate that the reasons that an individual gets sick are due to "Social and Economic" reasons. Treating the symptoms of these patients, as the health care systems seem to do today, will never, never, never cure the health cares problems of the population. 

InHCc Household and Client

Healthcare Mandates

Healthcare Mandates are those features that we think are truly the benefits of IT. These are features that InHCc support:

  • Management, Management, Management processes (did we make ourselves clear that we feel that this is a major part of any system)

  • Quality Assurance

  • Research

  • Surveillance

  • Stakeholder Involvement

  • Health Education

  • Preventive Care

  • Information Dissemination

Human Resources

InHCc believes that the success of any organization is the ability to manage their Human Resources.

InHCc Human Resources

Administrative and Accounting Function

While InHCc includes these functions in our system, we at InHCc feels that these are generic type products...and everyone has one! It seems that everyone has the same features and "bells and whistles". While we will descript our module features, we do not do this in our main section
