OSi began a decade ago as a group of transcription industry experts saw the need to offer hospitals and large clinics the resources and technology to help combat rising transcription volumes and escalating costs.

Specimens are often the key to accurate diagnosis, so maintaining an accurate specimen-to-patient relationship is essential. Furthermore, eliminating manual entry improves accuracy.

The fundamental objective of MOSS (Misys Open Source Solutions) Health Information Exchange is the secure exchange of patient clinical data with authorized users to advance the quality, safety, and efficiency of healthcare delivery. Misys Connectâ„¢ Exchange leverages IHE technical profiles to exchange medical summary documents across various source systems. For provider organizations, communities, and state-level Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) or Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs), these HIE Services enable an XDS.b (CCD, HITSP C32/C48 specifications) document (containing patient health information) to be shared regardless of the source system.

To maximize asset utilization from IV pumps to portable emergency equipment, hospitals and clinics need to be able to find and rapidly deploy these assets to maintain top quality care.

Designed for mobility, the Motion ® C5t delivers productivity and reliability at the point of care. Built on the foundation of the industry’s first Mobile Clinical Assistant (MCA), designed for healthcare environments and based on input from thousands of clinicians worldwide, the C5t is the right fit for demanding healthcare workflows.

The Accounts Receivable module efficiently tracks customers, manages invoices, processes receipts and prints statements.
