QiiQ is on a mission to sharply improve emergency department workflow using breakthrough SAAS methods. The PROBLEM: operational dysfunction that: - stunts throughput (increases length of stay and wait times); - increases staff burnout; and - damages patient outcomes. Our entry point is the emergency department. Over time we will broaden to address these issues throughout the hospital. Our Value Prop: QiiQ provides a virtual assistant (like Alexa) for care workers in the hospital. Clinicians and other staff will use this mobile tool to much more easily: - document patient encounters; - initiate automated processes that are otherwise time-consuming and distracting; - find faster/easier/better ways of getting critical work done; and - enjoy sustained quality improvement. A secondary value prop: QiiQ gathers and parses exceptional high-resolution workflow data for department administrators to utilize for continuous improvement, while the “QiiQ Smart Hospital” algorithms automatically prescribe changes and improvements to workflow based on the latest learnings and best practices. Differentiators: - focusing first on the emergency department, where workflow problems are most complex and severe; - exploiting ai methods for continual workflow and interaction improvement; - syncing RTLS (real time indoor location services) for context-sensitivity; - tapping personal data metrics (eg. hr variability and step counts) for individualized workflow insights; and - building partnerships with the most influential emergency care leaders and emergency specialty associations on the continent.
