With
over 800 primary care clinics nation wide each with its own
adjacent pharmacy, 50 multi-disciplinary regional clinics,
over 1,200 affiliated private offices and a number of major
hospitals around the country, the Clalit is the largest
healthcare provider in Israel, covering over 60% of the
population. With more then 9000 users, the Clicks® solution, started in 1995
thanks to a Clalit strategic renewal policy, is a
clinic-based system linked to a clinic-resident management
application which in turn links to a central system at
Clalit’s main offices. The implemented Clicks®
solution enables physicians and other medical staff to
access their respective specialty-related application or
designated segment of the system via a password-based
routing strategy. Key medical information is routinely
transmitted to Clalit’s central computer system from all
points of care, to create a database of core medical
information. That information is accessible to Clalit’s
physicians from any Clicks® workstation, enabling immediate
viewing of the entire picture of patients’ medical
situation. Along with built-in tracking of prescriptions
(detailed to the point of alerting of drug interaction and
suggesting preferred alternatives), tracking of referrals and
with direct link to the pharmacy system, the implemented
solution has become a crucial element in Clalit’s
organization-wide expense control policy.
