New public sector contracts for Induction Booking
Induction Booking app to help university students book COVID-19
lateral flow tests
Induction Healthcare (AIM: INHC), a leading healthcare
technology company that helps to digitally transform hospitals,
announces two new public sector and academic contracts with the
University of the West of England and South Gloucestershire
Council, for Induction Booking to enable the booking of COVID-19
lateral flow tests. These contracts reflect the expanded use of
Induction Booking outside of its core NHS hospital appointment
bookings and into local government and academic institution
deployment.
Universities are undertaking greater efforts to identify
students who may have Coronavirus and be infectious to others
despite showing no symptoms. Induction Booking will facilitate
appointments for COVID-19 lateral flow tests. By taking a test, it
will allow students to return home between terms and help to stop
the spread of the virus, protecting other people and saving
lives.
The new contracts will provide further strong revenue and
commercial momentum for Induction and exemplify how the Company's
range of products can be utilised among wider markets to help
simplify the booking process in the UK's COVID-19 testing
efforts.
Rachel Cowie, Director of Student and Academic Services at UWE
Bristol, said:
"We are pleased to partner with Induction Booking to rapidly
deploy our lateral flow test programme across our three campuses.
Students made appointments safely and securely on their smartphone
or computer within minutes and received all the necessary
information to be tested. This helped us deliver thousands of tests
in the critical weeks before the Christmas break. As we managed
demand quickly and easily, it became apparent why Induction
technologies have been so widely used across the NHS for more than
five years."
James Balmain, Joint-CEO of Induction Healthcare, said: "It's a
testament to our agile SaaS platform approach that we're able to
deploy our solutions within days to adjacent market segments,
without compromising our core mission within Health IT. It shows
the versatility and adaptability of our products and we are pleased
that our platforms can be used to help students in their return to
normality ."

technology company enabling the digital transformation of

The app helps to increase productivity and enhance communication by
securely sharing phone numbers and bleeps, bookmarks, documents and
messages in a clinical setting.
Induction Guidance provides medical organisations, including
most hospital trusts within the NHS, with the ability to
collaboratively create, edit, and publish their own local medical
guidelines in a secure and locally administrated environment. This
increases knowledge of, and adherence to, guidance.
Induction Zesty is a market-leading digital platform for
patients visiting hospitals. The platform allows patients to book
and access their appointments, read their clinical letters, store a
copy of their clinical record and provide data to their care teams
remotely. It is not just a compelling patient experience, but also
delivers significant cost benefits to hospitals.
Induction HealthStream is a proprietary data integration
platform that reads and writes patient demographic, appointment and
clinical record data between a growing number of hospital EHR
systems and the Induction platforms. This connectivity between
stakeholders and legacy IT systems adds substantial value to
pre-existing health IT investment and allows large-scale adoption
of Induction app-based services.
