After more than 12 years in the HTM industry at a software company, Genysys Solutions Founder Steve Campbell decided to start a company of his own.
“It became obvious that clinical engineering departments lacked the resources and understanding to properly track certain information that would otherwise allow them to make informed decisions regarding healthcare technology management,” Campbell said. “Doing so would allow them to reduce costs, improve efficiency and improve overall patient care and safety.”
Q: What is the main focus of Genysys Solutions?
A: Our main focus is to provide a data management solution for the entire HTM community that addresses the need for an industry-wide standardized database.
Q. What are some of the services Genysys Solutions offers?
A: We assist with data management, consistency and accuracy. Our company can then help hospitals run the appropriate reports to make informed decisions on how to run their department and improve efficiency with device management.
Q: How does Genysys Solutions stand out in the medical equipment field?
A: No one else provides a website that is public-facing and that provides an affordable means to find equipment types, manufacturers, model naming conventions along with user manuals, PM schedules and AEM recommendations. In addition, we provide a means for users to submit requests for missing or wrong information, allowing the community as a whole to contribute to a peer-driven source of information.
Q: Do you have any specific goals that you want Genysys Solutions to achieve in the near future?
A: We would like to get a large number of health care institutions “speaking the same language,” so to speak, and begin making informed decisions based on comparative data across multiple hospital organizations. This, in turn, could contribute to decreased costs in equipment acquisition and maintenance costs, while increasing equipment up-time and overall patient care.
