System definitions:

Discharge Letters - the ability to electronically generate and send detailed discharge letters to GPs and other relevant HCPs, when a patient is discharged from hospital-based services.

Diagnostic Reporting - test results which are electronically transmitted to the clinician who ordered them, with receipt acknowledgement.

Digital Dictation - device used for recording and managing natural speech, allowing staff to verbally input a patients' note into a system without having to manually input it.

Bed Management - real-time bed states are viewable and accessible, enabling more efficient management of bed occupancy and patient movements.

Thanks for your time.

Yours faithfully,

Emmanuel Phillips
