We’ve all experienced it – waiting endlessly for a discharge summary, a doctor running late, or an appointment that keeps getting pushed. And when you’re finally done, you still have to settle bills separately at the hospital and the pharmacy. To make things worse, your ortho doctor has no clue what the cardiac specialist did last week.

Why? Because most hospital departments still work in silos.

At some point, all of us – patients, doctors, administrators have thought:
“Why can’t all of this just be automated and connected?”

 

If You Run a Hospital, Let Me Read Your Mind for a Moment

Frustrated with your HMS? You’re not alon . Here’s why:

Limitation

Impact on Hospitals

Limited customization

Any change needs a vendor ticket — which means delays, red tape, and added costs.

Workflow rigidity

Discharge approvals or patient handoffs follow rigid paths, slowing down operations.

Poor integration

Your HMS doesn’t talk to Outlook, Teams, HR software, or even your analytics tools.

Siloed analytics

Reports are delayed, static, and limited to HMS data.

Vendor lock-in

You’re stuck waiting on third parties to update, innovate, or even fix issues.

 

These limitations lead to:

  • Frustrated staff
  • Inefficiencies
  • Higher costs
  • Missed opportunities to serve patients better

You and your patients deserve better.

 

Enter: SharePoint & Power Platform

  • Version-control SOPs, protocols, and clinical guidelines
  • Secure access with HIPAA/GDPR compliance

 

Power Apps: Custom Web & Mobile Applications

Let’s Make Healthcare Work Better

If you’re tired of clunky systems that slow you down, SharePoint and Power Platform offer a smarter path. You can continue using your existing HMS – but now, you’ll do it with more agility, visibility, and control.

The future of healthcare operations isn’t in one massive system. It’s in connected, intelligent platforms that give you the freedom to innovate.

Let’s stop waiting and start transforming.
