EQUICARE CS™ is a web-based solution that allows healthcare institutions to operate a chronic care model for cancer survivors. EQUICARE CS™ enables institutions to operate a survivorship clinic both efficiently by requiring minimal IT and human resources, and effectively by allowing clinic staff to focus on providing exemplary care.

While EQUICARE CS™ is currently targeted at cancer survivorship, it is easily generalized to serve any disease where a chronic care model is suitable.

EQUICARE CS™: A Business Case for Cancer Survivorship

Features

Worklist-Driven Workflow

EQUICARE CS™ provides a full set of productivity tools, which frees survivorship clinic staff to focus on providing care to survivors. Worklists and alerts ensure that no survivor ever falls through the cracks.

Public Portals

Public portals engage the survivor, their family, and their primary care physician as active participants in the survivor’s care. Questionnaires and assessments can be completed by the survivor over the Internet. This allows the survivorship clinic to monitor the survivor’s progress remotely, and to bring them back to the clinic when necessary, resulting in higher quality care and increased revenues.

Clinical Knowledge Base

A clinical knowledge base models industry guidelines for cancer survivorship and the best practices of the institution’s own physicians, ensuring a standard quality of care for all survivors.

HL7 Automation

HL7 integration eliminates duplicate data entry and ensures that patient information is correct and up to date. Cogent’s expert deployment team can integrate EQUICARE CS™ with any HL7-capable system, including any oncology information systems, laboratory information systems, hospital information system, or electronic medical record.

Standard Web-based Architecture

EQUICARE CS™ is designed with a standard web-based architecture which allows for infinite flexibility and scalability, while minimizing both procurement and management costs.

EQUICARE CS™ runs in a web browser and requires no specialized desktop hardware for end-users.

Software-as-a-Service

EQUICARE CS™ is licensed under a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, with a flat fee per patient per year. This minimizes the initial capital investment to only hardware, training, and installation services. Furthermore, the SaaS model allows the institution to fund the survivorship clinic through the operating budget, and to match expenses with revenues for a provable ROI. Finally, the SaaS model aligns our interests with yours, ensuring an effective working partnership.
