Enhances care by increasing provider efficiency and facilitating early detection and prevention.
The HSK automated interview collects guideline-recommended lifestyle information without requiring provider time. Limited appointment time can thus be focused on counseling in problem areas.
The HSK system performs calculations and plotting required for growth charts, BP-for-age-and-height, and behavioral health screening. Computerizing these steps saves staff time and eliminates calculation and plotting errors.
The HeartPrint provides a visual and compact summary of a patient’s risk profile. Patients can more easily understand their situation and at-risk patients are easily detected so that intervention can begin early.
Using charts and numbers to describe the risk profile can help overcome the emotional nature of counseling.
An optional recommendations sheet, based upon national guidelines, can be given to the family or patient and form the basis for healthy lifestyle changes.
Published health research is included in the HeartPrint and optional recommendations. This information is updated by the HSK team to reflect current best evidence and practice.
Multilingual interview and recommendations facilitate communication with Spanish-speaking patients.
