EPMG, EMBI Partner To Offer Emergency Departments Digital Dashboards

ANN ARBOR -- Ann Arbor-based Emergency Physicians Medical Group P.C. and Parsippany, N.J.-based Emergency Medicine Business Intelligence Monday announced a new partnership that will allow EPMG to offer an emergency department performance dashboard and analytics system to its hospital partners.

"Our new ability to offer the EMBI dashboard to our hospital partners empowers emergency department directors and hospital leaders by delivering comprehensive analytics so together we can make process improvements needed to enhance the emergency department experience for the patient," said Rodney Smith, M.D., EPMG chief medical officer.

The EMBI Dashboard will allow EPMG to provide its hospital clients a Web page to access all their key performance indicators related to emergency department efficiency, productivity, staffing, satisfaction, test utilization, financial performance, crowding, and more.  Emergency department stakeholders will get a 360 degree view of their key metrics because the solution integrates data from multiple internal and external data sources.

Scott Richards, EMBI CEO and co-founder, describes their solution as a powerful enabler for emergency departments.

"We leverage industry-leading business intelligence toolsets to provide our customers web-based, on demand, key performance metrics they need to manage their operations and business," Richards said. "Performance dashboards give them a graphical, high-level 'how are we doing' context. With one or two more clicks they can access more details behind each metric so they can manage the issues impacting their performance."
