Technology in practice
Newmedica’s unique technologies create superior patient care
Technology has changed the world, never more noticeably than in the last few decades, and the pace of change is speeding up. New technologies bring with them the ability to make more accurate measurements and computations, more quickly.
Newmedica has harnessed technology in two principal, very important ways, which have significant positive impacts for you as a patient.
The first is Newmedica’s continuing investment in new technologies involved with the diagnosis and treatment of chronic eye conditions including glaucoma.
The second exploitation of technology is unique to Newmedica, developed through several years’ of collective experience of patient care. Our innovative, proprietary Electronic Patient Record (EPR) software allows Newmedica to streamline the entire patient process, allowing fast and efficient appointment-setting and largely eliminating waiting times between different tests involved in your consultation. You may be offered appointments at special locations away from hospitals, reducing hospital congestion and making access and parking easier and less stressful. Your test results are collected quickly and efficiently and stored securely.
A major benefit of our software is that it allows the involvement of experienced specialist consultant eye surgeons in patient review. Once your clinical assessment and diagnosis have been made and a treatment recommended, a consultant ophthalmologist is able to access the very detailed examination data relating to your eye condition in a way never possible before. This provides a ‘double check’ on your diagnosis, and allows for modifications and recommendations on your future care.
As a patient in an area using Newmedica services, you can be assured that you’re receiving the very best in patient care and treatment.
