Christus Health, a Corpus Christi, Texas-based delivery system, has chosen mobile applications from Boston-based PatientKeeper Inc. The vendor's software integrates and mobilizes Christus Health's existing clinical and financial information systems.
The delivery system is using PatientKeeper applications to offer physicians mobile access to patient data, such as test results, dictated notes and other clinical information. It also is using the software to offer the doctors mobile access to billing systems in an effort to improve its revenue cycle.
PatientKeeper also signed contracts for its mobile software with eight other health care organizations during the third quarter; likewise, it has established partnerships with other vendors in efforts to help mobilize those vendors' applications.
