Gartner Research provides insight into the healthcare industry, recommending robust clinical communication and collaboration (CC&C) solutions or technologies. OnPage is mentioned in Gartner’s latest CC&C guide, recognizing the organization for its digital scheduler, audit trails, automated alerts and live call routing capabilities. At its core, Gartner recommends OnPage to organizations looking to streamline clinical workflows and enhance team communications.

At OnPage, we communicate and interact with legal practices, understanding how their needs are changing, while helping them transform their operations. Through these conversations, we learned that an increasing number of practices look to transition to 24×7 after-hour communications, allowing potential and existing clients to reach legal practitioners (i.e., lawyers) at any time.

Physicians surveyed listed administrative tasks as a key cause of frustration and physician burnout. Accordingly, this results in workplace issues including, delays in communication, mishaps in surgery and monitoring failures. Fortunately, OnPage curated its HIPAA-compliant, clinical communications solution to help reduce physician burnout and improve care team collaboration, preventing dire consequences in the process.

As 2019 comes to an end, OnPage would like to re-inform MSP teams about the value and importance of offering a 24×7 support service. Twenty-four seven support ensures that client issues are quickly resolved by an after-hours support team. Though 24×7 support is a must-have offering, MSPs must first re-work their internal workflows and policies, ensuring that after-hours servicing is a pain-free venture.

There’s a solid rationale behind replacing antiquated technology, as they fail to keep pace with how the healthcare environment is evolving. One such invention is the good, old pager. Recently, the U.K.’s National Health Service Trust (NHS) was on the radar when the organization’s sensitive medical data was hacked by an individual in North London. The malicious party intercepted radio waves, converting it into legible text on his computer monitor.

OnPage is pleased to announce a new, innovative two-way dispatcher and user communications feature launching next month, allowing system administrators to communicate with on-call healthcare providers. OnPage wanted to launch a feature, where a console dispatcher can initiate and send secure messages to the right providers. After receiving a dispatcher message, on-call providers can reply back to the message. This new feature converts one-way communications into two-way threaded exchanges.

Unexpected events make the healthcare profession one of the most challenging industries to navigate and plan for. Sudden, abrupt patient situations tend to occur, increasing the workload of healthcare providers. Similar, process efficiencies and productivity are a reflection of the care team’s ability to communicate. When teams are on the same page, patient wait times are significantly reduced and results are improved.

Critical incidents don’t come with a predetermined schedule or warning. So, it’s up to your organization to have an incident response procedure in place to combat these crises. Don’t have one? Read below to perfect your incident response operations and adopt the right tools and procedures to fight against any critical event.

Gartner’s Hype Cycle for Business Continuity and IT Performance Analysis are trusted reports, identifying solutions that enhance and solidify an organization’s business continuity. The OnPage team is pleased to announce that we’ve been included in two of Gartner’s Hype Cycle reports, listing OnPage’s incident alert management solution as a trusted tool for today’s support teams.

OnPage provides a reliable incident alerting solution, built for today’s healthcare providers and IT professionals, ensuring that important notifications are sent to the right individuals at the right time, every time. Adopting OnPage as a pager service or IT alerting solution equates to HIPAA-compliant exchanges, without human errors or complications.
