Whole Product Solution: |
| viaMD
strives to fulfill the unique needs of each viaMD
health care professional with role-based functionality
for over ten unique role types such as surgeons,
material pickers, and sales representatives. The
solution starts at the initiating supply chain event,
when a surgeon schedules the surgery and creates
the patient admitting orders. The hospital schedules
the surgery and confirms the admission. The day
of surgery, or up to a week in advance, the OR materials
team picks the material list and reconciles the
used items following surgery. The system generates
orders daily based on inventory stocking type. Suppliers
confirm and make shipments. The hospital receives
shipments, and matches against the order. Each role
collaborates with others so users can take action
collaboratively and save time with a whole product
solution. |
Populate Once, Propagate to Many: |
| viaMD
provides a one-stop solution for hospitals and medical
device suppliers. Hospitals have one transactional
desktop to conduct supply chain transactions with
their referring surgeon offices and medical device
suppliers. Hospitals can load desired par levels
and hospital system codes once, and start doing
business. For suppliers, they can load catalog content
once and add an unlimited number of hospital customers.
Suppliers maintain their catalog and pricing files
on viaMD’s servers. All business partners
benefit immediately by eliminating the paper-based
transactional records. By using viaMD, all users
can execute more productively and better serve each
other for the common good of patients. |
