Clinical Information Systems: IT-Logix and CISTEC agree on partnership
IT consulting firm IT-Logix, which focuses on business intelligence (BI), data warehousing, data science and Big Data, and CISTEC, provider of the clinical information system (KIS) KISIM, agree to work closely together and form a technology partnership. The goal is to provide KISIM customers with improved data utilization in the area of business intelligence.
For the Swiss offering in the field of clinical information systems and clinical data warehousing, IT-Logix and CISTEC are joining forces. "IT-Logix has been able to establish itself with well-known hospitals with its CDMH, the Common Data Model for Healthcare. The solution for a clinical data warehouse allows CISTEC to offer our customers comprehensive analysis options for all data generated in the hospital, beyond reporting for individual use cases," says Markus Käppeli, Head of Development and member of the CISTEC Executive Board. In return, the partnership with CISTEC opens up valuable sales opportunities for IT-Logix in the hospital environment: "KISIM from CISTEC is the leading Swiss hospital information system with the largest installed base," says Samuel Rentsch, Co-CEO and CCO of IT-Logix. "From our partnership with CISTEC, we expect a faster and more cost-effective implementation of CDMH in Swiss hospitals, offering a field-proven, lean Swiss solution."
Clinical Information Systems in combination with Clinical Data Warehouse
CISTEC's hospital information system KISIM supports healthcare professionals in planning and executing their operational processes. Central data storage prevents redundancies and ensures that all information is available at any time and from any location. Thanks to the interdisciplinary nature of KISIM, internal hospital communication is institutionalized and duplications are avoided. In many hospitals, it is difficult to guarantee a 360-degree patient view due to the numerous applications in use (ERP, HIS, diagnostics, etc.) and the corresponding data silos. A data platform based on the CDMH (www.cdmh.ch) from IT-Logix helps to break down these silos and provide a comprehensive overview of patient information. This enables medical and business decisions to be made on the basis of networked, complete and up-to-date information. A data platform can also improve communication between different systems and applications by supporting and promoting semantic interoperability. Thus, a wide variety of use cases, such as hospital control, hospital hygiene, data-driven medical coding, and data delivery for research, are served. IT-Logix's CDMH enables KISIM customers to leverage all the capabilities of a clinical data warehouse beyond the standard clinical information system functionalities.
