The OffSiteCare Solution: Measurable Results

The implementation of OffSiteCare solution in the ICUs of five Northern California rural hospitals has brought about dramatic results. Benefits realized at three of our member hospitals are highlighted below:

Palm Drive Hospital - ICU reopened July 2007

  • Daily patient census has doubled from 7 to 15-20
  • 40% increase in revenues, with ICU services credited as a major contributor to the hospital's financial turnaround
  • Increased number and acuity of surgeries
  • Increased utilization of diagnostic and imaging services
  • Reduced transfer rate to other regional facilities with the reopening of the ICU
  • Improved contracts with health insurers and other medical facilities

    • Howard Memorial Hospital - After introduction of OffSiteCare ICU services

    Increased critical care capabilities via telemedicine enabled the hospital's orthopedic surgeon to focus on surgery, resulting in increased volume and complexity of case load. As a result, a second surgeon was added to the staff, resulting in close to a 25% increase in overall patient census.

  • 20% increase in gross revenues
  • 48% reduction in nursing turnover rates
  • 59% increase in ICU admissions
  • Improved hospital acuity scores
  • Increased physician and patient satisfaction
