Key Capabilities
Broadcast Scheduling
HST’s scheduling and care communication offers a recurring broadcast setting that allows your team to increase OR utilization by automatically sharing open time regularly to physician practice(s) for specified dates and rooms. Open ORs increase OR utilization by maximizing visibility and reach of your available OR times, making it easy for referring practices to send more cases
Document Storage
HST makes sharing and storing documents simple. Practices and centers can upload from the web or mobile app. That means no more faxes and missing paper.
Care Team Coordination
Get everyone on the same page without actually using one. HST’s scheduling and care communication integrates with most practice management systems and allows you to share schedules and collaborate with your staff and physicians like never before.
Surgery Boards
Fully customizable for each department, digital surgery boards allow your staff to know exactly what’s going on throughout your center. Fully informed staff leads to better patient care and seamless patient flow.
Vendor Coordination
Easily coordinate with vendors to ensure the timely availability of necessary medications, medical supplies, specialized equipment or implants.
Anesthesia Coordination
A procedure should never be delayed or cancelled because anesthesia didn’t have accurate schedule information. Save hours of faxing and emailing schedules to anesthesia providers. Set up automated assignments for anesthesiologists or anesthesia groups that always cover a particular surgeon or room. With the mobile app, provide real-time schedule access, including helpful patient information and documents.
Check-in Kiosk
Our kiosk checks your patients in seamlessly and automates your center’s workflow, leading to shorter wait times and happier patients
