Enhancing Profit Margins

EmLucy is designed to enable smooth facility operations while staying within budget and enhancing profitability. It automatically generates reminders for care tasks and medical dispensing, ensuring timely service for patients. EmLucy integrates facility and workflow management with an embedded Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. It aligns patient care with available resources and generates a daily schedule for all facility staff. Additionally, it tracks all daily medical services rendered to each patient and automatically fills out MDS forms for Medicare and Medicaid patients, streamlining the PDPM calculation process for these services.

1. The management team can view a comprehensive schedule encompassing all personnel and patients within the facility. Most staff members have their daily schedules automatically generated based on facility needs, such as housekeeping or patient medical service requirements. Caregivers simply need to check the provider status page to see when their services are required. Any missing patient or facility service is flagged for prompt completion and is visible to management.

2. Physicians examine patients and document diagnoses using ICD-10 codes. Orders may include medications, laboratory tests, imaging, therapy, dietary guidance, activities, and social services.

3. Diagnoses based on ICD-10 codes are automatically incorporated into the MDS form, facilitating PDPM categorization. Physician orders initiate medical care schedules for each patient.

4. A nurse and/or CNA is typically assigned to a team responsible for a group of patients. The nurse enters daily care data and MDS assessment information for various evaluations, including falls, pain, respiratory status, and skin assessments, as applicable. While a CNA usually logs Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) and bladder and bowel movement assessments, a nurse can also input this data if a CNA is unavailable. The daily assessments are systematically transferred to an MDS form for PDPM calculation at the end of each assessment period.

5. EmLucy automatically generates and tracks MDS schedules for each Medicare or Medicaid patient. By automatically populating the relevant MDS forms with caregiver data, the workload for the MDS coordinator is reduced by 80%. Furthermore, EmLucy assists the MDS coordinator in identifying any missing items through a system validation process, which highlights items needing attention. Once all issues have been addressed, the PDPM score is automatically calculated.

EmLucy facilitates efficient workflows and schedules that engage all caregivers in delivering patient services. Timely completion of patient care is crucial and monitored by management. Caregivers always have access to their daily schedules, which indicate pending and completed tasks. At the end of each shift, any outstanding tasks are automatically assigned to the next caregiver of the same level for the subsequent shift. This ensures seamless patient care, promoting optimal treatment outcomes.
