Alcidion Group Ltd (ASX:ALC) has achieved a successful production deployment of its clinical messaging technology, Smartpage, at the Monash Medical Centre and Monash Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.
The deployment is part of a three-year contract worth $389,000 with Monash Health.
Alcidion’s after-hours mobile task management solution went live on Tuesday 13 March, with the installation running smoothly and completed on time and on budget.
Improving out of hours clinical task management
Alcidion’s Smartpage solution is now fully owned by the company following the acquisition of Oncall Systems.
Smartpage will provide Monash with out of hours clinical task management that delivers two-way instant communications between clinical staff to increase productivity and improve patient care.
As a patient’s condition can deteriorate at any time of the day, Smartpage is helping Monash staff provide optimum patient care in the night and weekend hours, when staff levels are reduced but patient occupancy remains the same as peak operating hours.
Potential contract value of $500,000
Monash Health operates a network of public hospitals servicing a population of about 1.4 million people in Melbourne’s southern metropolitan area.
Rollout to the remainder of the Monash Health public hospitals is planned within the coming year.
The current contract is set to run for three years, but Monash has the option to apply two additional one-year extensions, bringing the potential total contract value to $500,000.
