It does so by2028creating a multidisciplinary team in accordance with Care and Case management standards 2028focusing on the pathway on the patient. By proactively monitoring of compliance with the care plan Garsia® plans to empower patients and caregivers. Garsia® allows the integration of the local health agencies, hospitals, municipalities, public and private service providers, enabling e-Healthcare platform integration of health and social care networks and the construction of a virtual, patient-centered service network. In area of Bologna, Italy alone using Garsia® platform, the healthcare and social care operators have been able to save 57% of the time they used before for activities of integrated evaluation of the patients resulting in savings of €3 million each year.
While there are plenty of Health Information System alternatives, none of them approach health and disease from an integrated care pathway approach. This integration allows effective diseases solutions while saving costs. What makes Garsia® different from other products is the unique capacity to use an holistic approach to integrate hospital and health care with social care such that it uses state of the art advanced technology to analyze large scale data of EHRs by deploying Garsia® ’s proprietary algorithms to mine the data gathered via thousands of EHRs. Garsia® ’s engine shall build a mathematical model that represents real-world treatment patterns. Furthermore, through a personalized process with each new customer, Garsia® is adapted to the demographics of each population and to the context of the care organization. It offers many advantages such as an interdisciplinary management of patients (chronic and multi-pathologic), service optimization and improvement, the empowerment of the patient, interoperability through international standards while reducing inappropriate costs (8 billion euro on NHS).
Garsia® has been already successfully integrated in 15 hospitals and into over 300 Towns and 200 service providers in Italy. It is being successfully functioning in 13 Coordination Centers in France. Our new modules of Care pathway Management are being tested currently in 3 hospitals in Italy. We have estimated that after 5 years from launch in Europe, we will have engaged at least 900.000 patients (0,7% of chonic population), in around 200 hospitals and will have hired 59 new employees in different EU countries. We will earn almost €38.3M cumulative profit and generate a R.O.I of 14.31 by commercializing Garsia®.
