Quantros Automates Standardized Survey Delivery with New Web-Based Application

Quantros, Inc., a leading provider of web-based healthcare applications and services for safety and risk management, quality, performance improvement and accreditation and compliance today announced the release of Quantros Survey Director, a web-based survey management application that eases the burden and streamlines the process of administering and managing institutional and nationally recognized surveys. The øAHRQ Hospital Survey on Patient Safety CultureÓ is the first standardized module provided through this new and innovative application.

Automating the Survey Process
Healthcare facilities today are burdened with survey data collection efforts that are not automated. As a result hospital staffs spend countless hours manually entering data, collating results and preparing reports and presentations based on the results.

With Quantros Survey Director this time-intensive process is completely automated in a real-time, web-enabled environment from data capture to generation of final results reports and presentations.

"To stay competitive, healthcare organizations in today�s constrained environment require access to automated tools that can greatly reduce the burden of conducting quality improvement and outcomes monitoring programs," states Sanjaya Kumar MD, President and Chief Medical Officer of Quantros. "Quantros Survey Director targets the logistical and administration challenges of outcomes monitoring programs that require large scale data collection and reporting efforts. The "AHRQ Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture", the first standardized survey module Quantros is providing within this application, can be easily distributed within a single hospital or across a healthcare system via a web-enabled, browser-based medium that allows for distributed data capture, automated data aggregation and reporting. With Quantros Survey Director healthcare facilities will spend less time on administering surveys and more time on improving patient care."
