AVIA HEALTH INFORMATICS PLC 
By
Avia (AIM: AVIA), the developer and provider of clinical
decision support and communication facilitation to manage
referrals systems, is pleased to announce that its wholly
owned subsidiary Plain Healthcare Ltd ("Plain") has signed a
new contract for the sale of Odyssey FaceToFace and Odyssey
Reception to Greenbrook Healthcare. The Odyssey software will
be embedded in EMIS LV enabling Greenbrook Healthcare to
support its new Urgent Care Centre in Northwick Park
Hospital. Patients attending Greenbrook Healthcare will be
initially prioritised by a receptionist using Odyssey
Reception from where the clinical assessment information is
passed on to Odyssey FaceToFace used by a clinician during
the consultation. The clinical information is updated in the
host system and forms part of the patient record.
Greenbrook Healthcare is running a new Urgent Care Centre
that is co-located with Northwick Park Hospital A&E
Department. The centre will be open 24 hours a day, every day
of the year and will treat a range of minor illnesses and
minor injuries that require urgent and immediate
attention.
Odyssey FaceToFace is a comprehensive clinical decision
support system for face-to-face consultation in emergency or
primary care settings. Odyssey FaceToFace offers varying
levels of support covering the full range of acute
presentations, and includes sophisticated guidance for
history taking, examination, diagnosis and treatment.
With the existing Odyssey clinical decision support systems
and now PathFinderRF, Avia now offers healthcare
organisations various clinical 'end-to-end' solutions to help
improve the efficiency of their services. The product range
for primary care spans initial self-assessment using Odyssey
SelfAssess; receptionist prioritisation and assessment by the
clinician using Odyssey PatientAssess; and the referral by
the clinician to community or specialist care using
PathFinderRF.
"We are very pleased to be working with Greenbrook Healthcare taking on Odyssey Reception and FaceToFace and look forward working with them to take full advantage of Odyssey in an ED and Urgent Care environment supporting cost savings through effective and efficient clinical assessments."
