Mar 19

HOUSTON, March 19, 2024 (VSNewsNetwork.com) - US Med-Equip has received the CIO 100 Award for its artificial intelligence system, GoUSME ConnectTM, designed to provide clinicians with on-demand access to medical equipment, thereby saving time and reducing costs for hospitals.

GoUSME ConnectTM allows healthcare professionals to order urgently needed medical equipment, such as ventilators or bariatric beds, directly within the electronic medical record (EMR) system they use for patient care management. This integration aims to streamline the equipment delivery process, making it more efficient for clinicians.

A nurse manager from South Carolina’s largest private, nonprofit healthcare system commented on the system's impact, saying, “The system does all the magic creating a much more streamlined process. It has been amazing and is 1,000% saving us time.” The AI-driven GoUSME Connect requires no complex programming and can be set up in a matter of hours.

US Med-Equip, which operates 24/7, is recognized for leading the nation in medical equipment distribution and technology, with an average delivery time of three hours. The implementation of GoUSME Connect has further expedited the delivery process for hospitals using the system.

The platform automatically matches the equipment needs logged by clinicians in the EMR with USME’s inventory, facilitating timely delivery. This feature also helps hospitals avoid unnecessary rental costs by ensuring equipment is only provided when needed, eliminating the need for clinicians to manually request equipment transfers or pickups.

Antonio Marin, Chief Information Officer at US Med-Equip, highlighted the benefits of the system, stating, “Getting medical equipment when they need it, where they need it to help care for patients should be hassle-free for clinicians. GoUSME Connect was designed to help these healthcare heroes focus on helping their patients heal rather than on processes that take up time and money.”

US Med-Equip partners with top hospitals nationwide, offering rental, sales, service, and asset management of a broad spectrum of medical equipment tailored to meet the dynamic needs of healthcare facilities.
