VitalHub Corp. (the “Company” or “VitalHub”) (TSX: VHI) is pleased
to announce the recent sale of subsidiary Intouch with Health’s
(“Intouch”) digital health platform to South Tees NHS Foundation
Trust (the “Trust” or “South Tees”).
This sale is a large three-year contract comprising a
combination of capital and recurring licensing fees, and further
demonstrates customer confidence in the Company’s solutions, having
been made swiftly after the implementation of a proof-of-concept
agreement.
The Trust serves a patient population of 1.5 million, spanning
across Tees Valley and North Yorkshire. Employing approximately
9,300 staff, South Tees is one of the largest employers in the Tees
Valley region. South Tees’ expertise comes in the domain of heart
disease, cancer, trauma, neurosciences, renal (kidney) services and
spinal injuries. Additionally, the Trust is a major trauma center
with two hospitals in Middlesbrough and Northallerton.
This sale postdates a twelve-month proof of concept agreement
between the Company and the Trust, initiated only four months ago.
Within the short proof of concept period, the Trust was thoroughly
impressed with Intouch’s solutions, noting its ability to meet
performance objectives of increased clinical efficiency, financial
performance, and patient experience.
Specifically, the Flow Manager, eOutcomes, and Resource Manager
solutions were identified as immensely powerful tools that help
optimize operational outcomes. The result is a quick turnaround, in
an accelerated procurement and sale process. Accordingly, the Trust
will benefit from Intouch’s Platform’s ability to help reduce
Elective Care backlog, improving operational visibility and
efficiency. The sale will be operational in all Trusts across the
ICS once the project is completed, in the next 6-8 months.
The Trust is purchasing a host of software and hardware
solutions from the Company. The software will include the Flow
Manager, Check-In, Calling, Room & Resource Manager, Activity
Manager, eOutcomes, Mobile Appointment Manager, Wait Times, and HL7
Integration to PAS systems. The hardware will include 23 Kiosks and
35 calling screens. The corresponding benefits to the Trust will
include greater financial performance and patient experience. By
improving their room utilization, record keeping, and pre-planning
of activities such as x-rays and blood tests, patient flow will
increase while patient queues decrease.
“We are delighted to expand and grow our relationship with South
Tees, through the addition of this substantial contract,” said Dan
Matlow, CEO of VitalHub Corp. “With South Tees as an existing
VitalHub customer, this sale serves as another example of the
effectiveness of our synergistic M&A, demonstrating the success
of our cross-selling strategy. We continue to see considerable room
for organic growth across the market continuing to add to our
baseline of recurring revenue.”
