Cross-sector data sharing ensures better treatment and more coherent patient flows

Columna Axon brings coherence to the Danish healthcare system by ensuring sectors are digitally connected. The system makes sharing current and relevant patient data easy and efficient for healthcare staff in municipalities, regions and general practitioners. 

When the nurse at the hospital, the community care provider in the municipality and the doctor all have the same up-to-date information, citizens experience a more secure and coherent service.

They no longer need to remember and pass on information about their state of health themselves, as the necessary information is automatically shared between relevant professionals.

This ensures better quality of treatment and greater efficiency. Professionals spend less time clarifying queries about medication or functional capacity, for example, ensuring more focused treatment and care, reducing the risk of errors, and ultimately improving peace of mind for citizens and confidence in the healthcare system.

Columna Axon:

• Creates coherent cross-sector patient flows
• Removes responsibility from citizens for communicating information about their own state of health throughout the health sector
• Improves the quality and efficiency of treatment, care and nursing
• Prevents unnecessary readmissions

Easy access to essential data improves continuity of treatment

Columna Axon gives the various professionals an overview of a citizen’s current situation via electronic care and health records.

The information shown is tailored to the role and responsibilities of the specific employee, so only relevant and up-to-date information from the past few days is displayed.

This means that nurses, community care providers, physiotherapists, occupational therapists or general practitioners only see the information they actually need on any particular occasion.

In other words, this solution makes it quick and easy to access up-to-date, critical and relevant data. This is especially relevant in situations of citizens either being transferred between different healthcare players or receiving treatment involving close collaboration between different healthcare players.

Columna Axon prevents readmissions

Easy access to citizens’ health data at all times gives healthcare professionals better scope to focus on the whole person and provide continuity of treatment and care.

It can ultimately reduce the risk of a citizen being readmitted to hospital, since all healthcare professionals involved in the case have the necessary information to deliver relevant and timely care and treatment.
