THE DATA REVOLUTION
ON Chiropractic patient ' s healthcare team are speaking the same language and working with consistent , efficient notes to help with assessments and diagnosis is extremely important to ensure safe , effective care .
CLOUD-BASED
Although the word “ cloud ” has now become a very popular buzzword that has entered the public consciousness , all that “ cloud-based software ” means is that it ’ s run over the internet and accessed via a website . All of Aspire ’ s patient information is stored remotely in a data centre that keeps all of your data secure and automatically backs up your clinic and patient information .
That means you can access Aspire from any computer or tablet with an internet connection . You can even upload documents like scanned files , diagnostic reports and diagnostic images to the cloud based servers so you don ’ t have to worry about storing these often very large files . And of course , there is no software to install , as you would be accessing Aspire through a browser .
The English grandmaster Nigel Short recently declared that computers are stripping chess of its mystery . By crunching reams of data , computers can deconstruct once-obscure board positions in a matter of seconds to reveal the optimal move . Something similar is just starting to happen in health care .
Recent technical advances have made it easier to collect and analyze information from multiple sources — a major benefit in health care , since data for a single patient may come from various payers , hospitals , laboratories and physician offices . Governments and healthcare institutions now have unprecedented tools at their disposal coupled with a vastly increased supply of information to help make informed policy decisions to enhance patient care .
But even at the micro level , data can have a significant impact on an individual practitioner as well . Access to easy to understand information means that “ a chiropractor can analyze the data to help them understand their practice better and help them understand their patients better , all of which can lead to improved patient care ,” says Dr . Bob Haig , OCA CEO .
Aspire can help fulfill that role by capturing data from patient notes and creating reports that can help support informed business and clinical decisions .
THE FUTURE IS NOW
However , Aspire ’ s story will not come to a close once the patient management features are built-in . This is a living product that will be continuously enhanced to become a leading technological tool for chiropractors .
An enormous amount of potential can be unlocked by partnering with other vendors and developers to optimize clinic efficiency and patient experience . Eventually Aspire could offer anything from e-claims integration , SAS analytics , online booking and online exercise video prescriptions .
As a note taking software , Aspire will allow you to : ∞∞
Display a patient ’ s medical and social history .
∞∞
See a timeline of all visits with that patient .
∞∞
∞∞
Easily create assessment , reassessment and SOAP notes .
Take organized clinical notes that comply with CCO and CCPA standards through reminders and prompts .
∞∞
Highlight your daily schedule .
Aspire will also provide essential patient management features such as :
Imagine logging into Aspire ’ s patient portal , where you can further engage your patients between visits by keeping track of their progress , sending exercise prescriptions , and communicating remotely with them . Or perhaps you could improve your clinic efficiency by having patients complete intake forms or questionnaires prior to visits and having this data pulled into your patient charts .
Community , Innovation , Flexibility , Collaboration and the Cloud . All of these features sum up a very simple premise : Aspire aims to help you be a better chiropractor by freeing you up to do what you do best — helping patients . In health care , even a modest change like allowing for faster , more organized note taking can have an outsized impact on how a patient feels about the care you just provided , through the extra time the software just granted you to interact and talk with them . In its own way , that can be as transformational as Apple ’ s latest gadget .
