When it was time for University Medical Center Groningen in the Netherlands to consider updating their aging patient monitoring system, they knew it had to be done the right way. UMCG is a teaching hospital with 1,400 beds, providing highly complex medical care supported by 14,000 professionals who count on reliable and secure patient monitoring. Rather than making incremental updates over time, they chose to replace and standardize the entire monitoring system, and sought a business partner who could ease that transition.
UMC Groningen partners with Philips to deploy a Patient Monitoring Informatics Services Agreement
Ultimately, UMCG chose to partner with Philips to implement a secure, state-of-the-art patient monitoring solution, supported by a Patient Monitoring Informatics Services Agreement (PMISA), a customized software maintenance service contract that provides:
- Access to the latest software upgrades
- Cybersecurity protection
- Technical and clinical education, training and support
- A dedicated Philips Customer Success Manager
A central part of PMISA is PerformanceBridge Focal Point, a centralized operational management solution that enables IT and BioMeds to monitor solution uptime and track performance.
At the heart of Philips Patient Monitoring Informatics Service Agreement (PMISA) is a commitment to deliver high-quality care. We support healthcare professionals by helping them focus on patient care, rather than the equipment – allowing more time at the bedside.
Watch how UMC Groningen’s clinicians benefit from this partnership and see how a customized patient monitoring solution could help your organization achieve the same success.
