BroadCare
Health Solutions
"It cuts out a huge amount of administrative work. Once the data is input, you can easily interrogate the system to find the information you require."
Joan Pickett, Head of Adult Services St Helens PCT commenting on the use of Bray Leino's BroadCare software which offers a new approach creating efficiencies and generating considerable savings in the management of residential and community healthcare.
Background
Bray Leino developed its BroadCare software under the umbrella of its BroadSkill Solutions Division which has been delivering effective software development for the last 10 years. It started with the development of Funded Nursing Care Manager for Knowsley PCT, since then we have helped over 200 users from PCTs all around the UK to manage patient assessments, reviews, visits, outcomes and full financial payment schedules. The software has proved to greatly enhance the experience of sharing information with Strategic Health Authorities, neighbouring PCTs and the day-to-day management of staff and patient care. Subsequently Bray Leino developed BroadCare to support this area of growing importance providing comprehensive financial management for PCTs
BroadCare
Simple Interface
We appreciate that the majority of our users are not computer experts so we have designed our software so that our users feel comfortable entering, searching or reporting from our system. BroadCare can be configured for optimum user access based upon permissions and security set by the administrator.
Intelligent Reporting
There are over 200 standard reports and many more which can be customized by you or with a little help from our team. You can create letters that can be stored against your patient or service user and our system ensures that task lists, weekly reports, invoices and local authority reports can be produced effortlessly and nothing is missed.
Pinpoint areas of spend
Never before have PCTs had access to this level of information. We have helped one Trust save over £120,000 in recharge costs alone and the software has been instrumental in many PCTs bringing payments in-house, shedding thousands of pounds off their yearly budgets. BroadCare has been proven to calculate external agency rates to provide accurate costing and identification of specific budget spend across many client groups. BroadCare can integrate with financial systems or provide information for budgetary reports which can be saved, reviewed, date stamped and exported to Excel, if needed.
Patient Data
BroadCare stores full information on all client groups from young people, low dependency, mental & physical health, palliative, terminal and those recovering from serious illness, in fact anybody who has been assessed and is eligible for Continuing Healthcare. This information is available in reports which can be used for both commissioning and quality checks.
"I think it should have been adopted nationally"

Database Reporting Services
Many companies have a lot of information on their business, but often collected by different and distinct systems that capture specific information for a particular business silo. It is becoming increasingly important to provide managers and decision makers with a connected whole world view of the data they already own but in a form that is clear and helpful.
The Bray Leino database development team has experience of bringing together data in different locations and systems to make a coherent view. There are a number of tools available to deploy that whole world view to users in ways that they will be familiar with, software such as Excel or reports presented in the browser or emails that link directly to relevant data. Presenting data in a timely manner, regular or event driven and with appropriate detail transforms the end user's ability to work better and more effectively.
Turn your data into information, save your staff time from hunting for information you already have, connect two or more pieces of information together to inform and enhance decision making. Business Intelligence simply makes sense.
Bray Leino is a Microsoft Certified Gold Partner.
