Circle - Client Case Study
Andrew Davies & James Harrison
Head of IT & Program Manager, Circle
“We strive to continuously improve the quality of the care and improve patient outcomes. There are many providers of mobile and tablet solutions, but we wanted an IT partner that could not only provide flexible and secure technology, but that share our vision of improving service delivery and collecting robust outcome measures. That is why we selected psHEALTH.”
Client Overview
Circle's mission as an employee-co-owned-partnership is to run great hospitals and services dedicated to the patients. It was recently appointed by the Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group as prime contractor for its large, integrated musculoskeletal service valued at ca £120 million over five years. The CCG selected Circle to consolidate 20 separate contracts into a single service to deliver better health outcomes.
Problem
– As the prime-contractor for the large MSK contract, Circle needed to ensure the visibility of the sub-contractors' performance
– Circle needed to capture health outcomes both in the community and at home
– Circle wanted to ensure the application of consistent clinical protocols
Solution
– Roll-out of psMOBILE to clinical staff, including physiotherapists in the field
– Easy integration between psMOBILE and Circle's existing systems
