Medigate Launches Clinical Device Efficiency to Improve Operational Efficiency for HDOs
BROOKLYN, N.Y., Oct. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/--

-- The new offering from the medical device cybersecurity leader aims to 
increase medical device visibility, streamline hospital workflows, and reduce 
costs

Medigate (

), creator of the industry's first and leading healthcare-specific platform to 
orchestrate and integrate connected device data to improve network and IoT 
security, announced today the launch of its Clinical Device Efficiency (CDE) 
offering.

Medigate's CDE module will help Healthcare Delivery Organizations (HDOs) manage 
their fleet inventory by locating and assessing all connected devices, thereby 
providing real-time actionable data. Most HDO clinical device inventories are 
administered through a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). The 
Medigate CDE module eliminates manual processes by feeding over 100 unique 
device details to the CMMS, enabling HDOs access to a single source of truth 
for data on all clinical devices. 

In addition to delivering insights on where devices are, whether they are 
functioning correctly and how often they are being used, Medigate's CDE module 
also provides HDOs with benchmarked and actionable recommendations so they can 
optimize and right-size their fleet of devices. This view allows healthcare 
systems to take a demand-driven approach to allocation, moving devices from 
under-utilized locations to areas where they are needed more.

"Since our founding in 2017, we have continuously innovated ways to use 
connected device data to advance healthcare device security," said Jonathan 
Langer, Medigate Co-Founder and CEO. "CDE's launch brings the value of 
Medigate's rich device data to a new set of stakeholders, helping HDOs realize 
significant operational improvements and potentially saving them millions of 
dollars."

On average, a connected medical device is idle 58%(1) of the time and frontline 
care teams spend 10-15%(1) of their time looking for devices. CDE addresses 
these challenges by:

    -- Pinpointing the exact location of devices, thus reducing idle time, 
       and allowing an HDO to dynamically move devices from under-utilized 
       locations to areas where they are in demand. 

    -- Facilitating device maintenance to be conducted on an alternative 
       schedule based on usage instead of in bulk on a calendar basis. 

    -- Identifying missing devices so they can be returned into inventory, 
       rather than assumed lost and therefore replaced.

"The value of reliable device utilization intelligence crosses all departmental 
boundaries. From IT to security, procurement to supply chain management, having 
a comprehensive, real-time view of all device data will be critical to the 
success of HDOs in the future," said Robert Swaskoski, CISO of Heritage Valley 
Health System, a Medigate customer. "The launch of CDE underscores Medigate's 
leadership in the healthcare device management space and their continued 
commitment to innovation that will help HDOs meet the evolving needs of patient 
care."
