Futura Mobility Shows How to Yield ROI Using Secure Mobile Communications at the CHIME CIO Fall Forum

 

PHILADELPHIA & SAN ANTONIO--Futura Mobility, a mobile technology strategy and solutions company serving enterprise and healthcare industries, announces its participation in the College of Healthcare and Information Management Executives (CHIME) Best Practices Institute (BPI) Showcase. The showcase is being held during the annual CHIME CIO Fall Forum that takes place from October 28th through October 31st. As part of its participation, Futura Mobility will release their highly anticipated white paper “How to Measure the ROI of a Secure Mobile Communications Solution” featuring Jersey City Medical’s successful implementation of a HIPAA compliant, mobile communication system that helped them save millions of dollars.

Practice Unite is an impressive and secure mobile communication system with a full feature clinical consult platform that integrates with a hospital’s EHR to access and capture important patient data. Futura Mobility, who joined CHIME as an Associate Foundation Member earlier this year, hopes that their white paper will inspire hospital CIOs to adopt similar technology in their own organizations. Hard copies of the white paper will be available to CHIME members at the BPI Showcase before being released to the general public.As the healthcare industry becomes more and more mobile, adopting a system that allows sharing of information instantly and securely via mobile devices becomes a top priority and necessity. “Practice Unite, which we showcase in the white paper, is much more than a secure texting app; It’s a HIPAA compliant communication platform that supports care team coordination,” said David Gulian, CEO at Futura Mobility. “Faster and more dynamic communication is the key to better care and better outcomes.”

“CHIME is uniquely positioned to help today’s healthcare executives stay on top of policy issues, best practices, and new technologies to shape the future of Healthcare,” stated Cyndi Vely Cahill, VP of Healthcare Integration at Futura Mobility and CHIME Board Member. “In these challenging times, being a Foundation Member in this not-for-profit organization will prove to be a win-win-win solution for us all.”
