Doing so consistently across the entire integrated delivery network (IDN) adds another layer of complexity. To see how Versus uniquely applies RTLS technology meet these challenges, don’t miss the following events and announcements at HIMSS17.
HIMSS Education Session #156: Using RTLS Data to Increase Capacity in Ambulatory Care — Join Dan Hamilton, COO of Nor-Lea Hospital District, as he shares how their clinic dealt with a 78% increase in patient population over just two years.
