Global Health Ltd (ASX:GLH) has partnered with Yarram District Health Service in Victoria to provide a number of software solutions to the hospital and community health services.
The solutions include MasterCare EMR, Dashboards as a Service (DaaS), the ReferralNet Secure messaging platform and the Hothealth patient engagement platform.
This is a significant contract for the company, and its first for the financial year 2022-23.
Yarram District Health Service is part of the targeted geographic region of Gippsland and this partnership marks the beginning of Global Health’s foray into an important regional growth corridor in Victoria.
It joins Windana Drug and Alcohol Recovery, Monash Health, Bass Coast Health, Sunraysia Community Health, Bellarine Community Health and most recently, Ballarat Community Health and Peninsula Health, all of which have started using the MasterCare solution in recent years.
“Massive strain” on regional health
Global Health aims to provide integrated healthcare solutions to key growth corridors in regional areas across Australia, after the ongoing bombardment on community health resources during the COVID-19 pandemic, which placed a massive strain on regional health organisations.
The contract value is around $200,000 through the initial 12 months across implementation and ARR with an initial term of four years, with two four-year extensions.
This contract win is a marker of the strong sales pipeline and continues MasterCare’s growth trajectory in two key markets – community health and hospital providers.
More time on patient outcomes
The company says the solution will enable Yarram to connect directly with its clients and materially improve their clinical and administrative processes, allowing staff to spend more time focused on patient outcomes and less on paperwork and process.
“We are excited to be working in regional Victoria and supporting Yarram District Health Service, an exceptional regional based community health and hospital provider that delivers high-quality healthcare to improve patient outcomes and wellbeing in Gippsland,” Global Health CEO Michael Davies said.
“Our MasterCare solutions will enable Yarram to better run their day-to-day health management; provide improved reporting and business insight; actively engage with patients through an online presence and telehealth which helps to address the needs of their communities and improve patient care.
“We’re delighted that we are able to provide solutions to improve accessibility to community, mental health services and hospital care in regional Victoria.”
