Enterprise Output Management for Healthcare

Enterprise Output Management for Healthcare, Plus Technologies, OM Plus, Output Management, OEM, Portrait of a smiling nurse in a hospitalEnterprise Output Management for Healthcare

Plus Technologies has been providing Enterprise Output Management (EOM) solutions to healthcare organizations for many years. Our solutions include OM Plus Delivery Manager to provide centralized management, confirmed print, advanced routing, and reliable delivery of EMR output to printers and MFPs. OM Plus TRP replaces paper based forms with plain paper Rx printing. OM Plus MPD provides a variety of pull-print solutions to reduce cost and increase security. Also, OM Plus Stats provides detail and statistics needed to audit the print process.

OM Plus will help connect back end systems and print devices to eliminate gaps in information flow. Electronic health records (EHRs) contain a lot of information that clinicians use to deliver patient care. But it isn’t always easy for workers to print admission forms, patient wristbands, treatment notes and other types of output on the right device — especially when they’re all coming from different host systems.

Print information reliably regardless of which system you’re using, and gather output for a single patient —from multiple users on multiple systems — and route it to a single printer when you need it. Improve productivity by reducing the time and effort that workers spend formatting, producing and finding documents. Help reduce the risk of lost PHI on paper with just-in-time printing while you wait.

Value of Enterprise Output Management

Value of Enterprise Output Management, Plus Technologies, EOM

Value of Enterprise Output Management

Plus Technologies started in the print spooler business in 1994. Since then we have continually added to our software portfolio and for the past several years have become a leading vendor in the Enterprise Output Management (EOM) market with our OM Plus products. A recent IDC paper identified the value of EOM in today’s market. Some snippets from their paper include the following.

The proliferation of 3rd Platform technologies (cloud, mobile, big data, and social media) continues to foster significant changes in the ways that employees work with information. Knowledge workers are capturing, creating, consuming, and sharing massive amounts of content across multiple applications and device types, forcing businesses to find a proper balance between the need for information access and protecting business-critical content. Adding to these complexities is the fact that business information is now stored across a host of on-premises and offsite applications and document repositories, including information management systems, content sharing and collaboration solutions, local and network file folders, email, and hardcopy documents.

What is Enterprise Output Management

What is Enterprise Output Management, Plus Technologies, OM Plus, PlusTechWhat is Enterprise Output Management

Plus Technologies provides world class Enterprise Output Management software. But just what is EOM? Enterprise Output Management (EOM) solutions are middleware software solutions that automate the production, distribution, formatting, delivery, and management of output streams from any enterprise and/or desktop application to any physical or visual output channel. Meaning it can capture output from your ERP, CRM, EMR, and other line-of-business applications and send it to a printer, a web-based document archive, email recipient, fax server, or other destination.

As middleware, EOM solutions relieve desktop and enterprise applications from the burden of document delivery, formatting, and tracking. zEOM can also confirm that the documents that need to be printed actually did print. This can increase the performance and stability of your critical IT systems and improve regulatory compliance.

Cloud Printing Service – Enhanced Printing Features not Available for all Documents

Cloud Printing Service – Enhanced Printing Features not Available for all Documents

You may have noticed that there have been a number of MPS (Managed Print Services) vendors and printer OEM’s announcing “cloud printing services”. In their announcements they have made statements that imply cloud printing can manage the print delivery needs of all types of corporate documents. For example, Konica Minolta recently announced that their global Cloud Printing Service can manage the “total print” environment of its customers.

That claim may not be completely accurate. While we are sure the cloud print service is quite robust it would not always be able to provide the advanced Output Management” type functions for documents created and printed by “back-end” systems like ERP’s, EMR’s WMS, Accounting and other server based systems. Frequently these backend systems need advanced print delivery (eg print spooling) features such as bi-directional communications with printers, automated fail-over, load balancing, pull-print, integrations with authentications systems (eg Imprivata), the need to capture end user names for statistics and pull print, bundling/kitting of documents, intelligent routing, tamper resistant print, etc. These capabilities may not be available in a Cloud Print environment.

If the features listed above are needed for backend documents then in many cases an Output Management Software (OMS) system like OM Plus Delivery Manager would still be required.

President Visits Plus Technologies Customer

Last week President Trump paid a visit to the Whirlpool facility in Clyde, Ohio. He toured the Whirlpool production facility there and was able to see how the plant operated.

In that plant Whirlpool uses Plus Technologies’ OM Plus Delivery Manager (DM) software to manage the delivery of documents created by their ‘backend manufacturing system’ to the printers on the line.

Many of our manufacturing customers such as Whirlpool create documents such as pick lists, manifests, bills of lading, and shipping labels.
