MED e-Care is proud to introduce MDS Mental Health to its new suite of assessment tools. MDS-MH is MED e-Care's new software module that allows hospitals to submit mandated data to CIHI (Canadian Institute for Health Information), easily and without a hassle. Our company has a team of psychiatric nurses who have built the interface and the nursing reports. This new software module implements the RAI-MH that has been developed by interRAI, a collaborative network of researchers in over 20 countries committed to improving healthcare for persons who are elderly, frail, or disabled.
A need has been identified to compensate the lack of technological involvement in the mental health environment. Our RAI-MH based module is a web-based clinical assessment and data collection system that allows hospitals to collect individual patient information and incorporate it into their care planning activities, thus helping to identify key clinical issues related to patient care.
MED e-Care's MH software calculates and reports on nationally accepted socio-demographic and health characteristics, accessibility, resource utilization, efficiency, and outcomes/effectiveness indicators production. The software includes:

• MHAPS calculation
• GAF Scores
• Standardized Quality Indicators
• SCIPP calculations (CPS, ADL, IADL, Chess)
• Integration with other modules
• Minimal data re-entry
• UDS (User Defined Screen)
• HL7 Interface
• Interface with all clinical data collected
• And much more

The Mental Health Assessment tool offers a number of features that will vastly improve the data collection process:

• User friendly the software design incorporated extensive feedback from the clinical and nursing staff who participated in the development process. It's easy to navigate and understand.
• Well priced the software is cost-efficient and offers competitive payment options; the company offers thorough, timely technical support for all the clients.
• Professionally built the company's knowledge, skills and experience made this module one of the best on the market
• Context-sensitive help extensive help is available for each form section and field.

MED e-care's MDS-MH product can easily interface with other applications, including patient management systems like Meditech, McKesson and Medisolutions. The software is fully integrated with the rest of MED e-Care's software suite which includes Care Planning, ADT and Financials. Backed by one of the best technical and clinical support services in the business, MED e-care's OMHRS offering is unequalled in value and quality.
