TeleCon19 will also feature:

  • Command Center Experience: The Command Center Experience shows how to bring all the pieces together to conquer patient waits and provide highly coordinated, quality care to an entire patient population, as well as transform disconnected functions into a single, high-performance system. This year’s expanded Command Center Experience will include new roles and views, and will show how the Command Center and the patient facing areas of a system work together to ensure patients don’t wait for the care they need.
  • TeleBar: TeleTracking patient flow experts will be available for one-on-one consultations. All appointments will be scheduled using TeleTracking’s newest solution Community Scheduling and Workflow, which makes it possible to schedule both the appointment and receive updates on the appointment status, including any delays.
  • Breakout Sessions: Will cover topics such as Building the Business Case for a Command Center, Becoming a Data-Driven Organization, Considerations Before Investing in & Designing a Command Center, Disaster Lessons Learned Panel, Making Patient Flow a System Imperative, Optimizing the Operating Room and many more!

About TeleTracking Technologies, Inc.
For every hour patients wait for care, they face objectively worse outcomes. TeleTracking believes it is unacceptable that patients are not able to access the care they need, when they need it, due to operating inefficiencies and unnecessary cost barriers. Our mission is simple, to ensure no one waits for the care they need. And that’s why more than a decade ago, TeleTracking recognized the significant benefits of a centralized approach to managing patient flow, led the development of the command center concept, and has implemented more than one hundred operational command centers across the United States and United Kingdom. Named one of Becker's "Great Places to Work" in 2017 and 2018, the 2018 Innovator of the Year: Health IT at the Pittsburgh Technology Council’s Tech 50 Awards, and a Pittsburgh Business Times “Corporate Citizenship Award” winner, TeleTracking has also delivered extraordinary outcomes for nearly three decades that have been the subject of study by the RAND Corporation.
