Know more. Do more. Transform better.
Population centric PHR
Make information sharing between providers simple with one centralised personal health records (PHR) system across your patient population.
Embed the system and engage patients and staff more easily using our white labelling functionality. This approached has been rolled out successfully to over 2.3 million citizens across North West London through the Care Information Exchange.
One integrated record
Ensure patient safety and support clinical decision making by giving teams access to vital information from all providers in real time.
Share everything including lab results, medication lists, care plans and discharge summaries, using one login and from one place.
Release cash savings
As a start, save approximately £1 on postage for every digital letter received by a patient, or around £1000 for helping patients to avoid a trip to A&E or an unplanned admission. Why not put these savings to better use for either research, digital innovation or even staffing?
Our Gainshare outcomes-based contract model is a great way to get started. This reduces capital costs by levying transaction charges against guaranteed cash savings.
Create capacity
Reduce appointments and create capacity by empowering patients to self-manage their health and care remotely while enabling healthcare professionals to work smarter with online consultations.
Transform care pathways and only invite patients who need an in-person healthcare intervention for face-to-face appointments.
Prevent admissions
Open the door to remote messaging and online communication between patients and their health and care professionals.
Secure messaging with PKB has the potential to prevent unnecessary admissions and wasted trips to the hospital or to see the doctor. This not only saves money and time but it also significantly reduces your organisation's carbon footprint.
Empower self-care
Support patients to stay in their own homes and communities for longer by empowering them with the tools and information to safely self-manage their care online.
Symptom tracking and remote monitoring helps to see the status of a patient in real-time. This allows healthcare professionals to intervene earlier before problems occur. This approach has transformed care for inflammatory bowel disease patients at East Surrey Hospital.
Facilitate research
With PKB patients can give direct consent to share their information for research purposes.
Organisations can select the institutions to work with and help share this data seamlessly in real-time with those selected research groups and associations.
Improve end of life care
Enable patients to be cared for safely, with dignity at home during end of life care.
Help to respect individual needs and wishes by making critical patient information available to all care providers including their medical history, care plans and pain management prescriptions.
