Workflow automation in healthcare settings

Process Modeling & Optimization

With its workflow automation component, Ergobyte employs Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN), an open, well-accepted industry standard, enhances it with custom-built modules that use machine learning to adapt decisions, and couples it with openEHR, an open standard for the structuring of data in electronic health records. 

Key Features

• BPMN employed to author workflows with high flexibility and execution visibility

• Machine Learning modules use past results to improve their behavior

• Process information encoded at all levels using SNOMED-CT, openEHR, etc

Any procedure can be formalized into executable diagrams, with benefits stemming from pervasive decision support and implementation transparency. The system addresses a wide range of needs arising within a healthcare or social facility, namely:

• Computerized care guidelines (CCGs) and therapeutic protocols

• Pre- and post-operative care

• Clinical trials

• Nursing care plans

• Treatment optimization

• Clinical documentation and reporting

Our assets

• Proprietary , highly-performant BPMN execution engine

• Single codebase comprising over 580.000 lines of source code

• DataLife Hospital Information System, serving as testbed
