New: Workflower apps – quick and easy deployment for every care organisation
Every hospital has its own unique, organisation-specific work processes. But at the same time, there are processes that are nearly identical across different facilities.

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.

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.
