Managing the Spectrum of Cancer Care
IMPAC information technology (IT)
solutions range from an anatomic pathology
system to capture initial cancer diagnoses,
to a specialized oncology EMR to effectively
manage cancer treatment, and cancer registry
tools to handle long-term surveillance. With
the ability to move data between IMPAC’s
family of cancer care products – pathology
data to cancer registry, pathology reports
to the oncology EMR, or oncology EMR data to
cancer registry – IMPAC streamlines the flow
of information amongst the entire cancer
care team. And the valuable information
brought to light by IMPAC data management
solutions helps cancer programs plan for
expansion, substantiate performance, enforce
quality and ultimately refine clinical
practices to continuously improve cancer
center operations, patient outcomes and
advance population-based cancer research.
Data Aggregation
Data aggregation provides your oncology
center with the means to evaluate clinical
and administrative data. Through the course
of utilizing the IMPAC solution, your staff
is adding information to a robust database
that can be used to examine systemic trends
and identify strengths and weaknesses within
your center. Equally important, IMPAC offers
the ability to combine data from numerous
disparate facilities for the purposes of
benchmarking and research. IMPAC’s National
Oncology Database™ (aggregated cancer
registry information) and Oncology Data
Alliance (aggregated de-identified patient
data) provide an opportunity to not only
evaluate your performance against other
facilities, but also ensures the data you
capture can be put to valuable use beyond
your own center.
Analysis & Reporting
IMPAC’s line of analysis and reporting tools
provide a powerful agent to improve the
efficiency and effectiveness of your
oncology center. The vast amounts of
clinical and administrative data securely
captured and aggregated during routine use
of IMPAC IT solutions, offers a unique view
into how your clinic operates. Yet IMPAC
provides the tools not only to view, but
also to help interpret your data. With the
ability to cull your historical data and
delve into the root cause of important
events in your center, IMPAC helps you
present a clear, concise and comprehensive
message to your organization about how your
services, operations, and clinical outcomes
can be improved. |
