Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC) was named in 2019 as the #1 hospital in New Hampshire by U.S. News & World Report, and recognized for high performance in 13 clinical specialties and procedures. The HTM team at DHMC has uncovered new ways to improve efficiencies and communication while reducing cost through complete data and information visibility.
Using advanced reporting and dashboards with data optimized at the individual hospital department level within the EQ2 HEMS CMMS, numerous synergies are realized. Communication between departments is enhanced and support of HTM both for, and from, those departments becomes the norm rather than the exception. Data integrity and value towards lifecycle management decisions is achieved through providing visibility to all sides.
This empowers clinicians and department managers to help reduce total cost of ownership by reducing Cost of Service Ratio (COSR). With complete visibility into individual assets within each individual department, clinicians, department managers, and HTM are all on the same page and pursuing the same goals for each asset’s management.
