T-System Content
T-System content is at the heart of all of our solutions, and it's what drives complete, standardized documentation, efficient workflow and optimal outcomes. T-System content has been honed and tested by thousands of emergency medicine nurses and physicians across more than 250 million emergency department (ED) visits. Today, 40 percent of the nation's EDs rely on T-System's industry validated, gold-standard emergency medicine content to support high-quality patient care.
See what elements make up T-System content:
Design and Presentation
The layout of documentation elements helps ensure that the solution supports easy, efficient charting, while well thought-out diagrams, icons and indicators lend themselves to more accurately and completely charting the patient's condition and care.

Clinical Terminology
For every chief complaint there is a unique set of terminology required to fully describe the assessment and treatment. Through our specialized knowledge and experience, T-System has mapped and perfected the language of the ED, which includes more than 200,000 possible clinical words and statements. This language allows 1,700+ of the nation's EDs to describe a patient's care using a standardized language known and highly regarded by industry experts.

Clinical Decision Support
T-System content incorporates advanced algorithms that provide input, such as physician feedback for missing documentation elements needed for reimbursement or to support regulatory compliance.
|
Order Sets
T-System has built 50 evidence-based order sets that enable safer, more cost-effective patient care.
|
Clinical Phrase Builder
T-System's clinical phrase builder produces articulated text from documented elements for a complete description of the clinical narrative and better communication of the patient's care.

Encoding Support for ICD and CPT Codes
Documentation elements are encoded and run through a series of sophisticated algorithms so that billing codes are automatically calculated. This ensures optimal reimbursement for the care that was provided and helps alleviate the stress of concern for ICD-10 compliance. |
The T-System Difference
T-System content improves operational outcomes. Its standardized templates and easy circle-and-backslash documentation method increase efficiency, speeding up throughput and shortening lengths of stays, and improve reporting by decreasing the amount of unstructured documentation. Our solutions receive nearly 100 percent adoption among clinicians due to their intuitive design. And since T-System content is complete out of the box, content build is unnecessary, allowing for a faster implementation and training process.
Not only do our solutions eliminate the cost of dictation and reduce the cost of care through standardized order sets, they improve reimbursement by capturing a complete patient record that supports ICD-9 and ICD-10. Clients can also attain Meaningful Use financial incentives with T SystemEV and increase revenue by improving throughput with a more efficient way to document the patient encounter. Additionally, T-System keeps content updated in order to reduce clients' cost of system maintenance.
Moreover, T-System's content provides a visual roadmap of care to ensure patient safety and compliance with regulations and core measures. Thorough, standardized documentation allows for smoother care transitions at the point of handoff and improves patient outcomes. By supporting the highest quality of care, hospitals can improve patient satisfaction.
Created for clinicians by clinicians and in use for more than 15 years, T-System content is the ED industry standard that is proven to optimize financial and clinical results.
The content of a patient documentation system affects workflows and efficiency, reimbursement and profitability, and the quality of care and patient satisfaction. Without a robust set of content, hospitals can experience a multitude of financial and clinical consequences.
