100% approval rating among healthcare professionals
"We can now focus appointments on the patients who may be at higher risk of complications. This allows us to address health issues before their operation, making surgery safer, which should help to reduce short-notice cancellations"
"Easily the biggest innovation we have seen in the last twenty years."
"The automated instructions and patient reminders make it easier for the patient to prepare for surgery, and they have reduced our last-minute cancellations."
"It's much easier to have a digital platform where we can update the changes whenever we want, and the changes are available for everyone. It's quick, handy, and reduces work, cost, and materials."
"I believe that, during the next year, the system will prove to be so good that we will continue using Buddy Healthcare's platform."
“Our phone calls with patients have decreased, work has speeded up, and we can now choose flexibly when to fill in, e.g. Periop data from the pre-assessment form. We now have fewer phone calls and more successful procedures as patients follow the instructions. Additionally, our patients are more committed/engaged in their care.”
NHS Lanarkshire, stretched by thin by Covid-19, had a growing waiting list for elective surgery. They wanted to reduce their administrative workload by replacing their manual, paper-based system, which required every patient to attend a hospital appointment.
Our solution
Our platform enabled automated patient education and data capture, including remote pre-op assessment form submission from mobile devices. The process helped the hospital to reduce pre-operative appointments and cut waiting lists.
Impressive results
Clinical staff were able to reduce their per-patient workload. Not only did patients require fewer pre-operative appointments, but the overwhelming majority didn’t even need to call.
Tampere University Hospital was using a paper-based system to coordinate the pre- and post operative care of ENT patients. This inefficient system bogged down clinicians with non-stop paperwork.
Our solution

Exceptional results
Tampere was able to manage far more patients per staff member through Buddy Healthcare. The digitised Buddy Healthcare platform eliminated the need for time-consuming paperwork.

A significant impact
