Learn MorePatient safety is a primary concern for all health systems and medical devices play a critical role in supporting the safe and effective delivery of patient care. Looking beyond the “break/fix” mentality of traditional clinical engineering services, health systems must consider ways to be more proactive and responsive for the safety of these devices, ensuring device availability, tracking device location to support delivery of care, protecting the security of medical devices and including safety of devices as a consideration in capital planning initiatives.
Learn MoreChris Dunkerley, CFO at TRIMEDX, sat down with four leading healthcare executives at Modern Healthcare’s 2019 Leadership Symposium to discuss their best practices and challenges in evaluating and facilitating enterprise capital investments. The discussion explored how leaders are thinking about their two most important assets, workforce and technology, and unlocking return on investments.
Learn MoreIt’s easy to pinpoint certain areas of the hospital where spending habits could be improved. Maybe there’s a different brand of consumables that could save you money, or perhaps you’re overstated in a department that isn’t generating enough revenue. There are other areas, however, that require a closer look. One of those is clinical engineering […]
Learn MoreCyberattacks on health technology are on the rise, raising the risks and costs associated with your connected medical devices and the data they hold, and, of course, raising worrying questions about patient safety. In this white paper, you'll learn how to reduce patient safety risks and costly violations.
Learn MoreDeclining reimbursement and lower patient volumes are continuing to put pressure on hospitals to reduce spending and save money. Due in large part to the high visibility of costs related to equipment maintenance and repairs and capital acquisition, one of the first places many hospitals start looking for ways to save is in the clinical […]
Learn MoreIn today’s hospital, there’s a significant gap between hospital risk management and clinical engineering. Clinical engineers are hired to maintain, repair and replace equipment but many times are also expected to oversee hospital risk management related to this equipment. In a typical hospital, there aren’t enough engineers and techs to adequately cover the risk management […]
Learn MoreRansomware attacks alone rose 123% in 2021, costing hospitals over $21B. When your medical devices are locked or forced to be offline, time is of the essence. Learn how one health system partnered with TRIMEDX to start remediation in less than eight hours.
