How can AUDICOR® help hospitals better manage higher risk cardiac patients including heart failure and acute coronary syndrome?
Many hospitals are benefiting from AUDICOR® in their facilities through reductions in under or missed diagnoses, earlier initiation of treatment, shorter lengths of hospital stays, and improvements on their core measure performance, which is tracked by the Center for Medicare Services (CMS) and Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). These core measures are a hospitals’ quality scorecard and new federal laws will begin impacting the economics of the hospital based on their performance. Studies indicate AUDICOR® used upfront in the earliest part of the emergency department evaluation can help eliminate missed diagnoses and assist the heart failure team to undertake the key core measure activities.
