Management Solutions
Gain insight into the information needed to meet organizational goals and ensure success.
Gathering, evaluating and using information effectively
is more critical than ever as organizations face tight
budgets and reduced funding. Timely information access
and analysis applies to various settings, including board
accountability, compliance and accreditation processes
and funding opportunities. With the trend toward service
integration and “no wrong door” access, the
ability to make data available at any point in the process
is critical. Add to that the need to juggle scarce internal
resources while providing high quality care and services,
and it’s no wonder executive directors, clinical
directors, financial officers and other managers feel
the pressure from a variety of challenges.
Netsmart Technologies’ full range of Management
Solutions—Compliance, IT Management, Learning Management,
Performance Management and Claims Analysis provides executives
in human services provider and payer organizations with the resources
and information needed to meet organizational goals and
assure future success.

systems remain accessible and operational in the event

Information Technology (IT) Management
Information
Technology (IT) Management involves hardware, software
and services, but a strong IT strategy and infrastructure
combines these elements with a focus on how an organization
can best meet its goals. Increasingly, the IT department
is the hub of the organization and is expected to accomplish
a variety of tasks with limited resources. How you manage
the IT infrastructure can make the difference in ensuring
your success and in making sure IT stays aligned with
organizational goals. With this in mind, Netsmart Technologies
offers IT management services tailored to an organization’s
unique business and technology requirements.
As demands
on your IT staff increase, Netsmart Technologies can
augment their efforts with qualified resources to assist
in the daily management of an entire Netsmart Technologies
solution, or with discrete systems management and maintenance
functions. Netsmart Technologies IT Outsourcing Services help agencies reduce costs, focus on strategic IT initiatives
and increase the performance of their systems. The IT
Outsourcing service is primarily for agencies that wish
to completely outsource their IT operations, including
application and infrastructure monitoring and management,
application and infrastructure administration and 24x7
operations support. In addition, Netsmart’s
practice management and clinical solutions are available
to clients in licensed software, hosted or Application
Service Provider (ASP) environments.
