This profile is to manage the interoperability issues that surround the bed management tasks that are involved with admissions to the various hospital departments from the emergency department.
Summary
'Due to a lack of interoperability in the emergency department several problems occur:
- Work inefficiencies are decreased for emergency department providers and other staff with no mechanism to monitor patient status in real-time
- Delays in patient transfers to other inpatient departments within the hospital occur
- Siloed data which results in poor data quality for process and performance improvement activities and care coordination
Benefits
A robust, integrated bed management not only improves patient care, but also impacts a hospital's financial status. The benefits of this profile is:
- Increased efficiency
- Reduced delays and waste
- Improved patient transfer and care coordination data, resulting in better predictive planning
Details
<A few paragraphs, if appropriate, providing more details (mostly in user-speak, not tech-speak) on what the profile does and how it works.>
<If the user might be familiar with the mechanisms used by the profile, you can mention them here. E.g. Evidence Documents is based on DICOM Structured Report (SR) Templates.>
<If the user might have an appreciation for the problems addressed in the profile, you can mention them here, but keep it short. E.g. Mapping HL7 Order fields to DICOM Modality Worklist attributes can be inconsistent in the marketplace, so Scheduled Workflow provides vendors with more detailed instructions.>
Systems Affected
- Electronic Health Record (EHR)
- Admission/Discharge/Transfer (ADT) System
- Emergency Department Information System (EDIS)
- BMS

- Reporting Workflow [RWF] may use Evidence Documents as inputs to the reporting process.
- Simple Image & Numeric Reports [SINR] may include data copied from Evidence Documents.
- Cross-enterprise Document Sharing for Imaging [XDS-I] can be used to share Evidence Documents between sites over a network.
- Portable Data for Imaging [PDI] can store Evidence Documents on media such as CDs.
- Import Reconciliation Workflow [IRWF] can fix patient ids, etc. of Evidence Documents when importing.
