The Kelkom System

Visual Signaling. Providers and techs instantly know when they are needed in a room. No admins chasing providers. No providers chasing techs. No wasted time.

Intercom. Providers and techs can instantly talk with each other no matter where they are located. No searching. No wasted time.

Patient Sequencing. Providers know exactly how many patients are waiting, in which rooms, and in what priority, with a glance at any wall panel BEFORE leaving the current patient. No searching for folders. No guessing which has priority.

Generic Visual Intercoms System

Any other Visual Intercoms system. Any other Visual Intercoms system cannot provide the functionality of a Kelkom System. Generic Visual Intercoms systems offer limited functionality at similar cost structures to a fully functional Kelkom System.

"Low Cost" Visual Intercoms Systems. What is your time worth? Lifting a box by yourself is "low cost" but many choose to buy a hand-truck. There might be some "low cost" Visual Intercoms systems, but they require more time from everyone to operate. That is the real cost of a Visual Intercoms system that seems "low cost." What is your time worth?

Kelkom Is More Than Just a "Visual Intercoms" System

• System self-manages through single button inputs by users involved with each patient (no system admin-specific involvement).
• "Next Room / Next Procedure" Queues automatically created for each patient and for defined provider / technician / administrator activities.
• Messages - easy to understand - pass between users in hand-off between procedures - for example, patient arrival / ready in room / provider required / technician required / admin required / phone call for provider / emergency in room #.
• Updates simply when high-priority interrupt requests inserted.
• Does not require a PC in every service room and technician station
• If you choose to use PCs for patient record management, the Kelkom system delivers higher value through ease of use.

Providers
Service an additional (or more) patient a day - $150 (existing) to $350 (new) Savings - $3000 - $7000 a month of new revenue PER PROVIDER.

Techs
Service 2-3 additional patient a day - $75 per service Savings - $4500 a month of new revenue PER PROVIDER.

Facility Utilization
Exam and treatment rooms turned more quickly Improved $ generation per square foot of space.
