Lumeca Health Launches Lumeca Messages: Advancing Healthcare Communication
[Regina, May 6th, 2024] – Lumeca Health, a pioneer in digital healthcare solutions, proudly unveils Lumeca Messages, an innovative clinical messaging application designed to streamline collaboration among healthcare providers. Lumeca Messages provides healthcare professionals with a secure and efficient communications tool where they can share files, coordinate patient care, and solicit medical advice from one another.
According to a study of hospital-based physicians and nurses by the Ponemon Institute, providers are wasting up to 46 minutes per day on their pager or beeper. This costs an average hospital an estimated 1.75 Million USD per year and an estimated $8 billion each year to the healthcare industry.
In today’s dynamic healthcare landscape effective communication among healthcare teams is crucial. However, traditional methods like fax, phone calls, and emails often cause interruptions, delays and inefficiencies compromising patient care. Addressing this challenge, Lumeca Health developed Lumeca Messages to revolutionize healthcare communication.
Lumeca Messages offers a comprehensive suite of features tailored to healthcare providers’ unique needs:
- Secure Messaging: Encrypted messaging and file sharing ensures patient information’s confidentiality and integrity, enabling PIPEDA & HIPAA compliant communication within and across healthcare organizations.
- Powerful Provider Directory: With the ability connect entire health ecosystems, Lumeca Messages can enable traditionally siloed practitioners to communicate directly with one another (e.g. A nurse in LTC, a family physician and a vascular surgeon)
- Asynchronous and Real-Time Collaboration: Instant messaging and video call capabilities facilitate information exchange, case discussions, and informed decision-making in real-time, irrespective of geographic location.
- Care Coordination: Integrated with Lumeca’s virtual care tools, Lumeca Messages streamlines care coordination efforts. Providers can efficiently schedule appointments, share referrals, and track patient progress within a unified platform.
- Clinical Integration: Seamless integration with electronic health records (EHRs) and other clinical systems ensures continuity of care and eliminates manual data entry, saving time and reducing errors.
- Customizable Alerts: Users can personalize multi-channel notification settings to stay informed about critical updates and prioritize communication based on urgency and relevance.
“Lumeca Messages marks a significant milestone in our commitment to empowering healthcare providers with innovative digital solutions,” said Tom Douglass, CEO of Lumeca Health. “We are confident that this technology will drive efficiencies for healthcare providers. The heavy reliance on methods like faxes and pagers is not only outdated – it’s a liability. With the current strain on healthcare providers there will never be a better time to implement solutions that reduce burnout and increase efficiency like Lumeca Messages.”
