Kronos Delivers Latest Release of Kronos EZCall Physician Scheduling Solution
Committed to delivering solutions across the continuum of care for
healthcare organizations, Kronos
Incorporated today announced availability of an enhanced version of
Kronos (News - Alert) EZCall, an automated physician scheduling solution.
News Facts
-
Kronos EZCall now includes functionality to help healthcare
organizations better align physician and clinician schedules with
patient care needs. Latest enhancements include:
-
Integration with third-party enterprise systems - New
interfaces with credentialing and provider management systems -
such as one built with Cactus Software - now allow Kronos EZCall
to integrate with these systems to standardize and more
effectively manage physician and clinician data across the entire
enterprise. This results in more reliable information and
elimination of manual updates across multiple systems.
-
Greater access to on-call providers - Quick, accurate
access to physician and clinician contact information is critical
to patient care and efficiency. By leveraging Kronos EZCall as a
single source, enterprises can now store group and department
information within the organizational hierarchy, making it easier
to find and contact on-call resources.
-
More information on providers - Pertinent information about
physicians and clinicians such as referral preferences by
specialty, contact instructions, current assignments, and links to
recently assigned schedules are now consolidated within Kronos
EZCall. The solution also now captures additional attributes
during vacation and non-clinical time-off request processes,
helping organizations offer uninterrupted patient care by ensuring
that patients are directed appropriately when providers are
unavailable.
-
Increased ease of use - Enhanced navigation and a new
global search feature provide expedited access to assignments,
providers, groups, and schedules.
-
In addition, Kronos EZCall is now integrated with Imprivata Cortext,
which enables physicians and clinicians to more quickly identify and
securely communicate with on-call providers to better address patient
care. This will further allow physicians and clinicians to communicate
more easily with each other about schedule-related changes such as
shift swaps with on-call colleagues who have comparable skills and
ertifications.

Susan Reese, DNP, MBA, RN, CPHIMS, director, healthcare practice
group, Kronos
"Many healthcare organizations manage large
numbers of physicians and clinicians across the entire enterprise.
Kronos EZCall now makes it easier than ever to manage such complex
scheduling needs. Also with the Imprivata Cortext integration,
physicians and clinicians can now spend even more time with patients
and subsequently reduce readmissions, outcomes that both patients and
healthcare organizations seek today."
