Enhancing Efficiency and Quality of Healthcare

Your Challenges

Increasing efficiencies, reducing healthcare costs and managing customer demands are the key challenges faced by healthcare players today.  The call now is for the deployment of effective strategies to transform business and IT processes, enhance care delivery, foster collaboration among the stakeholders of healthcare.

NCS partners some of the best healthcare providers to deliver seamless and quality care at the community, secondary and tertiary levels.  We provide technology solutions that support an open, patient-centric environment that keep up with rapid changes in healthcare needs and policies.

Our IT professionals specialising in healthcare are not mere IT specialists.  They are adept at the industry's needs and developments.  We value-add by providing insights and innovative ideas and solutions to all stakeholders in the healthcare system.

With over 25 years of experience and extensive domain knowledge of private, public and national healthcare systems, complemented by our strong technical competencies, we have developed and deployed wide ranging solutions to-date. 

Our comprehensive suite of healthcare service and solution offerings include:

Health Information Management

At NCS, our domain consultants are experienced in the standardising of clinical vocabularies, terminologies and classification systems relating to ordering and reporting diseases, tests, adverse drug reactions, quality of life and casemix acuity.  We also have extensive experience in the development, implementation, variance analysis and reporting of clinical indicators and clinical pathways (protocols) for each disease and procedural group.

As data comes from diverse sources and collaborators, it is crucial that data standards be formalised, adopted and implemented so as to homogenise data elements, data models and data architecture for the purpose of sharing, common understanding and exchange.  Defining data elements consistently across all the data holdings is necessary to improve the efficiency with which data linkages can be performed and thus improve the compatibility of health information and outcomes across services.
