Eldermark Unveils New and Improved Point of Care App
Healthcare technology provider Eldermark has launched a new “Eldermark POC 2” application for iOS and Android devices. Eldermark is an Associate Business Partner with CAST Focus.
Point of Care helps communities identify missed revenue by capturing scheduled and unscheduled services in real-time, says a release on PR Newswire. Clinicians and caregivers can work in the app both online and offline. Eliminating both paper dependence and human error, the app functions the same across operating systems, which minimizes the hardware limitations that historically have plagued the senior care industry.
With Eldermark’s Point of Care, senior living communities see an increase of 230% in their captured unscheduled services, said the release, equating to an average of $25,000 of previously missed revenue per quarter. Caregivers say they are saving 20-30 minutes per shift.
