Set your care organization on FHIR!
In the care sector’s current context, traditional data exchange standards, such as HL7 and DICOM, continue to play a critical role. But there is also FHIR – the new HL7 standard that is rapidly gaining ground. With Amaron’s FHIR Station, we can now set your healthcare organization on FHIR, too.

Clinic Saint Jean chooses the Amaron EAI platform with standardized HL7 processor
The existing Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) environment at the Clinic Saint Jean in Brussels no longer met the needs of the hospital. The system was not sufficiently open, and its continuity was not guaranteed. So, the hospital decided to phase out its old EAI and replace it with an open and standardized solution from a supplier who can deliver maximum support.

MPI Matchmaker ensures error-free fusion of patient data
When hospitals decide to merge or to establish collaborations, this always has far-reaching implications for the information infrastructure of the hospitals involved. The first step is to merge the patient files. Only after a time will you then consolidate, step-by-step, the information systems themselves. This was also the method chosen for the fusion of the ZOL Genk hospital in Genk with the Maas & Kempen hospital in Maaseik. Using the Workflower app “MPI Matchmaker”, this time-consuming process could be automated to a large extent.

Registering employee and patient vaccinations: Workflower vaccination solution 2.0
In early 2021, we rolled out a Workflower solution which allows hospitals to register their employees' vaccinations. This vaccination data is secured and automatically transmitted to Vaccinnet. This process also makes it possible for healthcare organizations to see the vaccination rates of their employees at any given moment.

AZ Sint-Lucas reminds patients of their appointments using the Amaron Notification Center
AZ Sint-Lucas in Ghent has started using a new electronic patient record. Because this EPR does not include a solution for reminding patients of their appointments via SMS, the hospital’s IT Department, together with Amaron, has set up a Workflower solution – the Amaron Notification Center. The greatest advantage of this generic solution is that you can use it to send out all kinds of messages and you can configure almost everything yourself.

Central lending service at Heilig Hart Hospital in Lier deploys Workflower for managing nursing equipment
To use the available nursing equipment efficiently and to avoid losing track of equipment, Heilig Hart Hospital in Lier works with a central lending service. A Workflower process ensures that the management of requests for additional resources runs efficiently. The departments quickly find the material they need, and at the lending service they know exactly where each device is located.

Headaches from managing loaner sets?
In Workflower, we have developed a basic process that allows you to avoid the numerous pitfalls in this process. To further refine this scenario, we invite you to have a conversation with us, so that together we can devise the perfect use case for your hospital.

Amaron accelerates growth with capital injection
To achieve our plans for continued growth both at home and abroad, Amaron has enlisted two investors: HERAN Partners and Active Capital. An initial 2-million-euro capital injection provides us with the oxygen we need to turbocharge our growth plans and substantially expand our workforce.

Help, the patient is not known!
Imagine for a moment that a dentist refers one of her patients to a maxillofacial surgeon in your hospital. The dentist provides the medical data for this patient to the surgeon via eHealthBox. The patient has never been in your hospital before, and her national registry number is not known either. How do you then link the data with the medical record and make sure that the surgeon has access to the patient's data?

Oost-Limburg Hospital uses Workflower for the onboarding of physicians
The list of data and documents a hospital maintains for its (independent) physicians is long. Collecting this information is a very time-consuming process. Together with Amaron, the ZOL hospital in Genk has developed a solution to streamline all the steps of the onboarding process.

Hospitals share patient records across national borders
The ZorgSaam Hospital in Zeeland (the Netherlands) works closely with care organisations in Belgium. The Belgian hospitals can easily access the medical patient data and images from ZorgSaam, and vice versa.

Amaron migrates old (and expensive!) EAI solutions to NextGen Connect
A future-proof communication environment does not necessarily have to cost an arm and a leg. Amaron has proven this on several occasions by migrating existing EAI solutions to NextGen Connect (formerly Mirth). Emmaus Mechelen, ASZ Aalst and the Sint-Trudo Hospital in Sint Truiden, among others, can certainly testify to this.

Workflower automates registration of admissions to Heilig Hart Hospital in Lier
The hospital uses a digital form for registering the admissions. The exchange of data takes place in real time. Everyone is always up to date on the current status and informed of any changes, and the chance of errors is reduced.

Data from monitoring systems ends up in the medical record and is immediately available to each healthcare provider
At three Nexuzhealth hospitals the HL7 messages from the Philips spot check monitoring systems are automatically translated to codes customised for the hospitals' EPR.
