Jack Nathan Medical Corp (CVE:JNH) (OTCQB:JNHMF), operating as Jack Nathan Health, has announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Writi Inc has secured the software installation for 15 new Long-Term Care (LTC) homes, representing over 1,650 beds.  The company said this integration, when complete, will double the number of LTCs using the Writi platform and increase its recurring revenue install base to a total of 30 LTCs and over 3,200 beds in Ontario. These new integrations will be driven by Writi v2.0 which delivers enhancements to speed and efficiency across all modules, secure group conferencing video calling between healthcare entities and a new and improved mobile app, Jack Nathan added.

The cloud-based medication management software platform supports the secure digital communication, record maintenance, and workflow of resident-related orders and documentation.  The platform includes telehealth, e-prescribe, e-billing, electronic order-processing, and patient charting. It integrates with Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) as well as with PointClickCare, Telus Health (Kroll Pharmacy Management Solution), and MED e-care. Jack Nathan said that with Writi’s Virtual Healthcare platform, information flows seamlessly into a patient’s health record and is securely accessible by local and remote healthcare partners; it reduces prescribing time by 20% and nursing order-processing time by 43%, drastically reducing the administrative burden on practitioners and allowing more patient care time. The company noted that Canada’s LTC system is strained by overcrowding and limited resources. Today, people over 65 make up 17% of the Canadian population and 44% of healthcare costs. There are over 700 LTC homes and over 1,000 senior care homes in Ontario alone. Contact the author: patrick@proactiveinvestors.com Follow him on Twitter @PatrickMGraham
