The challenge
What had to change
The Problem
The GPCF needed to expand their capacity to provide non-emergency health care services for an ever-increasing number of uninsured Georgians. Operating with limited funds, the organization matches volunteer medical service providers such as general physicians, specialists, or clinics to those who fall below the federal poverty level. After evaluating several alternatives, GPCF decided that no standard application would be able to accomplish the specific tasks that were unique to their organization and its operations. They needed a new system to accommodate their needs.
The BlueAlly solution
How the work came together
To enhance efficiency at the GPCF office, BlueAlly proposed a solution that increases service capacity without additional staff. This involved implementing a specialized application to streamline operations, allowing swift transmission of referral information to volunteer service providers. By initiating the service referral process through the browser on the first visit, the BlueAlly solution expedites assistance for individuals. Additionally, a system was introduced for field workers to input preliminary information remotely before returning to the main facility, optimizing overall operations.
The results
What changed
With over ten years of experience in implementing custom Internet and Intranet solutions, we were able to quickly grasp the needs of the organization and design a solution that would not break GPCF’s budget.
Outcome highlights
What the client gained.
Health techs can now track the statistics associated with the voluntary healthcare providers to assist in balancing workloads and to seek additional facilities, doctors, etc. if needed.
The updated system saves lives by sending patients to facilities where the treatments for their diagnosis are quickly apparent and most effective.
Patients can now immediately start their services referral process through the browser instead of waiting for a second visit to the office.
