Med-GPS is a data warehouse for all of the clinical and administrative data in a health-care institution’s information systems. It gives managers a homogenous and cross-sector view of their facility.
Med-GPS, built on a business intelligence solution for data mining and management, is based on the principles of Lean Six Sigma. Designed with continuous enhancement in mind, Med-GPS allows users to identify areas where clinical and financial performance could be improved, to measure actions, and to respond quickly to changing trends throughout the care continuum.
“Integration of local community services centre (CLSC) and hospital data not only gives us quick access to data from the community sector, but also allows us to monitor patient pathways across the two systems.”
(Brigitte Poulin, Director of Information Resources, Beauce health and social services centre [CSSS])
Information management
- Provides a single and consistent source of evidence-based data
- Makes it possible to validate inter-system data
- Provides a cross-sector view of the organization as well as a population view
- Allows for local parametrization of the application in relation to institutional targets, with alert levels for percentage achievement of targets
- Results in significant time savings (data management, analysis, input, validation, handling, and interpretation time)
- Uses the data currently in the institution’s systems
“Med-GPS is a wonderful and inclusive tool that provides a comprehensive overview of the institution. With this forward-looking solution, we can make management and clinical decisions that are in line with current circumstances. Consequently, we can respond to actual needs.”
(Lise Chagnon, Assistant Executive Director, Pierre De Saurel health and social services centre [CSSS])
Analysis and measurement
- Measures and monitors hospital and community performance
- Improves processes by measuring timelines and variations through detailed mapping of clinical pathways in the emergency department and the operating rooms, and optimizes management of short-term beds
- Measures consistency and resource capacity from a clinical and financial perspective (human, technical, physical, and financial resources)
“Med-GPS links clinical architecture with financial results. It gives clinicians the ability to access evidence‑based data.”
(Gilles Simard, Director of Financial, Material and Information Resources, Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean health and social services agency [ASSS])
