Tools for Eldercare

Lots of questions are coming in about our latest major technology initiative - SCANS.  SCANS stands for Senior CAre Navigation System.  This is a development effort that has been underway for some time at My Health Care Manager.  The first full production release is due out in August.

We already use a complete set of Informatics tools to track, manage, and communicate with families regarding the issues faced by our senior clients and their caregivers.  SCANS goes to a whole new generation of support for our health care managers. 

The system provides a comprehensive set of geriatric care knowledge and decision support to our team in the field.  This includes a holistic, consumer-side view of the many issues faced by families grouped into 25 Care Categories.  All of the primary issues in each category are explored and specific solutions are recommend along with practical tools and actions steps for the caregiver.

This puts the best practices of the industry and a full time research team at the fingertips of health care managers and the families they help.
