Hospital Policy Management Software

Policy and Procedures Management Software on Office 365 SharePoint

In today's complex healthcare landscape, managing policies and procedures is a critical component in maintaining regulatory compliance. With an ever-growing number of rules and regulations to adhere to, it can be challenging for hospitals and healthcare organizations to keep up.

This is where ConvergePoint’s hospital policy management software steps in. Specifically built on top of Microsoft 365 SharePoint, it provides a comprehensive solution that streamlines the entire policy management lifecycle.

Effective Policy and Procedure Creation

The first step in effective policy management is the creation of policies and procedures. ConvergePoint’s software simplifies this process by providing standardized templates, allowing organizations to maintain consistency across all their policies. The ability to reuse approved content and track changes and versions further enhances efficiency.

The software seamlessly integrates with Word Online and comes with an advanced Word plugin, making it easy for users to create and edit policies within a familiar interface. This not only saves time but also reduces the learning curve for new users, making the transition to the new system smoother.

Streamlined Processes with Structured Workflows

Managing the review and approval process of hospital policies and procedures can be a complex task. ConvergePoint’s software simplifies this with predefined review and approval rules and processes.

Through automated notifications and task assignments to the appropriate compliance team members, policy drafters, reviewers, and approvers, the software ensures that the right people within the hospital are involved at the right time, reducing delays and improving efficiency.

Audit Readiness with Detailed Audit Trails

Maintaining a detailed record of policy drafting, reviews, and approvals is another crucial aspect of compliance. Passing an internal or external audit should not be time consuming. ConvergePoint’s software provides detailed activity tracking and retains revision history, ensuring that organizations are always audit-ready.

A Comprehensive Centralized Policy Library

Once policies are created, they need to be stored, accessed, and managed. ConvergePoint’s software features a central repository for active policies, providing a single source of truth for the entire organization.

With roles-based access, only authorized hospital personnel can access specific policies, ensuring secure and controlled distribution of information. Furthermore, the system sends alerts when new versions of policies are published, helping to keep all stakeholders informed and up-to-date.

Ensuring Compliance through Policy Attestation

Ensuring that all hospital employees read and acknowledge policies is a key aspect of compliance. ConvergePoint’s software comes with a policy attestation feature, which assigns policies to employees for them to read and acknowledge.

Administrators can easily track compliance, making it simple to identify who has read and acknowledged each policy. This not only enhances accountability but also aids in demonstrating compliance during audits.

Quick Deployment and Ongoing Support

One of the standout features of ConvergePoint’s software is its quick deployment as a SharePoint app. This means that hospitals and healthcare organizations can extend their existing Microsoft 365 SharePoint tenant to get up and running with the software in no time, minimizing disruption to their operations.

Furthermore, dedicated resources provide implementation assistance and user training, ensuring that hospitals and healthcae organizations can implement best practices and extract the maxiumum value from the software.
