How It Works
Our system is designed to allow staff to continue to admit patients when the HIS system is down, and print forms, barcodes and wristbands. Staff can even access physician order sets on your web browser. For planned downtime, simply print packets of essential forms ahead of time.
All forms generated with Downtime Solutions by Interlace Health are easily archived back into the system when it’s up again. You don’t lose information or communication, and never need to disrupt patient care.
Downtime for Registration
- Electronic intake of registration information outside of EHR/registration system can be printed for manual reentry into EHR once the system is back up OR utilize HL7 to send back to EHR as your organization/EHR allows.
- Auto print registration forms, armbands and labels WITH barcodes for PPID and accurate scan back to EHR, eliminating patient ID errors.
- Continue to populate patient info on forms for on-demand printing.
Downtime for Clinical Documentation
- Have access to paper forms for clinical documentation to ensure continuity of care during the EHR downtime.
- Get a single source of truth for most up-to-date forms at downtime.
- Ensure accurate scanning back to EHR with barcodes.
Why it’s Better
Easier for Staff
Staff compliance with Interlace Health downtime procedures is virtually automatic, as doing it correctly is the easiest path to follow.
Integrates with EHRs
Even our paper alternative downtime system uses the data from EHRs, and uses the same forms to avoid confusion. Barcodes virtually eliminate patient ID errors when transferring data back into the system.
Reduce Liability
Our system closes the gap for human error when transitioning from digital to paper and back to digital. Patient care won’t be delayed and records remain accurate throughout downtime situations.
Improved Patient Experience
Patient may not experience any negative effect of downtime, other than reverting to a paper form.
