The Medibase
Approach
A permanent solution for achieving and maintaining an MPI free of duplicates and overlay errors. Whether a single facility or a multiple facility enterpise with many diverse systems, Medibase provides a comprehensive solution to fit your needs:
• Identification of Duplicates currently present in the MPI. Our MPI Assessment analyzes the Master Patient Index
(MPI) or Enterprise Master Patient Index (EMPI) to isolate existing duplicate errors and identify where and how
often identity errors occur within an organization.
• Cleanup of Duplicate MRNs - BASEmatch™ provides
HIM professionals with a singular solution to recognize and permanently resolve duplicate MRNs.
• Accurate Identification - BASEshield™ recognizes
identity errors at the registration process, before they are committed to the MPI or EMPI.
• Notification of Suspected Duplicate and Overlay Errors - BASEnotify
™ instantly notifies HIM staff of possible identity errors via email (e.g., creation of a duplicate MRN
assignment or the overlay of one person's data with that of another person).
• Accurate Identification by swiping state Driver License or Military CAS Card - BASEscan expedites identification of patients and guarantors by swiping card through
our reader to quickly identify and begin registration.
• Positive Patient Identification using biometric fingerprint techology - BASEmetric™ ensures accurate identification of returning patients using patient fingerprints.
Can be used for both initial registration and recognizing patients presenting for scheduled procedures.
• Alert Hospital Staff When Designated Patients Present for Service - BASEalert™ is an early warning system to alert appropriate staff members when designated
patients return to the hospital. Criteria for alerts are established by the hospital. Alerts take the form of an
immediate online notice to the registrar or a background notice via email to select hospital personnel. BASEalert™ works independently or along with BASEshield™, BASEscan™ or BASEnotify™.
• Assigns
a "lifetime" number to each patient and manages all the
unique
system identifiers within the healthcare enterprise - BASEempi™
allows hospital staff to locate patients anywhere in the
enterprise. It provides active user interfaces so that
registrars are able to identify returning patients
accurately. Passive alerts continually alert
enterprise staff of potential error caused by duplicates
and overlays. The active user interfaces also add trememdous flexibility in attaching Medibase's imaging and biometric products to all systems.
