CSSI has been a major development and implementation partner with UDSMR for more than eight years. The UDS-PRO® system, developed by CSSI for UDSMR, is the industry’s largest patient outcomes software application and database of patient records, managing data for more than 70% of all inpatient rehabilitation facilities.
The extensive knowledge contained in this database makes UDSMR the trusted source within the rehabilitation industry for objective evaluations of industry trends for use in standards, benchmarking, and public policy debates.
This powerful system combines UDSMR’s clinical expertise and CSSI’s technical capabilities to manage all aspects of processing data from the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility Patient Assessment Instrument (IRF-PAI), beginning with data collection and case management through data transmission to both the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and UDSMR. This system was designed to assist rehabilitation facilities in complying with rules mandated by CMS regarding the collection of data used for reimbursement of all Medicare patients across the country.
“CSSI really understands the industry’s need for secure management of sensitive data, and how to best design technology to organize, control access and share that data,” said Pawel Wieczorek, CIO of UDSMR. “We’ve trusted CSSI for over ten years for their domain expertise and reliability. The sizeable market share of subscribers is a testimony to the quality of the product created by this strong partnership.”
CSSI is also UDSMR’s exclusive implementation partner for the Health Level 7 (HL7) interface, an optional add-on service to UDS-PRO® database subscribers. The HL7 interface communicates with other health care systems and the UDS-PRO® system for seamless transmittance of accurate data.
Due to the success of these systems, UDSMR has again chosen CSSI as their implementation partner to develop a documentation tool which will add to their integrated suite of database and reporting systems.
“Our partnership with UDSMR has been very rewarding”, said Prabhakar Dixit, Program Manager at CSSI. “UDSMR provides a highly valuable service to both their subscribers and the rehabilitation industry as a whole with their UDS-PRO® System database. We are extremely happy to continue our association with UDSMR in the development of their new documentation tool.”
