Collaboration has largely relied on phone calls and ad hoc exchange of patient information, often requiring physical transfer of data (e.g. CDs). The new service will introduce a structured digital approach to consultations, enabling clinical information to be shared and documented electronically, removing the need for physical transport of patient data and improving how consultations are created, managed and recorded.<\/p>\n<p>The service will reduce administrative workload and accelerate response times. At the same time, all interactions will be centrally documented and fully traceable, improving transparency and supporting more consistent, informed clinical decision-making based on up-to-date data.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project lays the foundation for closely integrated, cross-site care,\u201d says Joachim Neugebauer, Vice President Clinical Care Solutions at vitagroup. \u201cBased on structured clinical data, hospitals can strengthen collaboration, improve operational efficiency, and make more informed decisions, with the clear goal of delivering faster and better care for patients across the region.\u201d[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"ult-content-box-container quote-with-image ratio-3-5\" >\t\t<div class=\"ult-content-box\" style=\"box-shadow: px px px px none;-webkit-transition: all 700ms ease;-moz-transition: all 700ms ease;-ms-transition: all 700ms ease;-o-transition: all 700ms ease;transition: all 700ms ease;\"  data-hover_box_shadow=\"none\"    >[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_class=&#8221;quote&#8221;]This project lays the foundation for closely integrated, cross-site care.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"quote-source\">Joachim Neugebauer<br \/>\nVice\u00a0President\u00a0Clinical Care Solutions, vitagroup<br \/>\n<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;10517&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221; image_hovers=&#8221;false&#8221;]\t\t<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Building the foundation for integrated, data-driven care<\/h2>\n<p>The solution is supported by vitagroup\u2019s Health Intelligence Platform (HIP), which provides a shared data foundation for cross-site collaboration.
