VALUE & ROI

Financial benefit comes from several factors combined.

ICU DATA EXPERT does more than reduce administrative tasks. It helps capture, validate and use information that directly affects billing while reducing the workload around the record.

A bridge connects documentary complexity to gains in time, quality and reimbursement — FROM COMPLEXITY TO VALUE **TIME REGAINED · DEFENSIBLE RECORDS · SHORTER DELAYS**

VALUE IN MOTION

Better use of data creates several benefits at once.

Return on investment does not rest on a single promise. It emerges when one reliable foundation eases care work, secures the record and accelerates administrative processes.

EXTERNAL REFERENCE — SWISS RANDOMISED TRIAL

A Swiss study of daily DRG coding optimisation observed a 6.5% increase in reimbursement per hospital day. This is not an ICU DATA EXPERT measurement: it illustrates the economic importance of complete coding and documentation.

ICU NURSING EHR TIME — OBSERVATIONAL STUDY

A study of 317 ICU nurses measured around 17.5% of clinical time spent on electronic records, mainly documentation. Automating some avoidable tasks therefore offers a real opportunity to free up time.

Suspected ventilation period

A suspected missing period is flagged. The designated professional checks the record and, if justified, manually enters a correction subsequently processed by ICU DATA EXPERT.

One document for coding

All useful information is brought together in the SWISS DRG document. Coding specialists save time, check the stay more easily and apply the appropriate tariff. View the SwissDRG chain

Disputes handled faster

Evidence is directly available without manually sifting through the clinical record or requesting an IT extraction. Faster responses to insurers help reduce reimbursement delays and improve the organisation’s cash flow.

Data quality

Scores, episodes and data checked upstream reduce late corrections and secure the information submitted to payers.

Care time & smoother transfer

The real-time report saves staff complex compilation work at discharge and gives the receiving team more complete, safer information.

Scale effect

In a large organisation, the benefits accumulate across thousands of stays. A published study of clinical documentation improvement reported $4.67 million in estimated additional charges associated with responses to documentation queries. This is an external reference, not a promise of ICU DATA EXPERT results.

Experience built at the heart of intensive care.

ICU DATA EXPERT stems from 13 years of intensive care experience. The product was built in a very large environment with real volumes, requirements and operational constraints.

Commercial accuracy: the site distinguishes historical internal results, ICU DATA EXPERT’s functional mechanisms and external studies. No external percentage is presented as a guaranteed product ROI.
