Facilitate collaborative clinical decisions
Bleepa®’s smart notifications alert clinicians whenever new patient information becomes available, ensuring timely action. Diagnostic results are presented directly to the care team, prompting collaborative decision-making to develop a management plan that is then shared across all care settings.
Multi-disciplinary team (MDT) discussions can happen on a rolling basis as soon as results are ready, so patients no longer need to wait for the next scheduled MDT meeting, meaning care decisions can begin immediately.
Junior staff can contact senior stakeholders for advice and guidance, getting better, faster decisions for patients and ensuring optimal care is delivered to patients. Patient management plans can be established without delay, bringing in a variety of specialist expertise as required, from outside the provider organisation if needed.
Save time and improve productivity
The Northern Care Alliance, one of England’s largest providers, has seen a dramatic reduction in clinical response times since using Bleepa® to digitise paper-based referral systems and improve clinical communication, including an 87% reduction in referral response time in respiratory.
Bleepa referral data from July 2021 to April 2023 covering 10,000 patient referrals found that the average time from submission of a referral to first review across the trust’s respiratory, cardiology and gastroenterology specialisms at specific hospital sites was 0.55 days.
This was a reduction of 1.55 days compared to the 2.1 day average time lag recorded before the platform’s deployment across parts of the Greater Manchester trust.
Improve clinician communication and staff experience
The independent evaluation at the Northern Care Alliance highlighted significant improvements in clinical communication using Bleepa®.
• 80% of staff reported enhanced communication compared to previous referral methods
• On average, 4.8 messages are exchanged per referral, helping clinicians progress patient care more efficiently
By streamlining communication and reducing unnecessary delays, Bleepa® improves both staff experience and patient outcomes.
“Bleepa is very straightforward and easy to use, it’s easy to grasp and navigate around… Being able to track and monitor the discussions and notes which are then captured in the patient record, has saved so much time and energy.
“My favourite thing about Bleepa is that it allows me to more effectively communicate what I want to say or handover to a colleague… It feels very natural to pop any updates into a live chat.”
