Statum Systems- Revolutinizing Medical Communication with Astute Services 

For years, systemized medical communication has faced increasing difficulties, but relatively few businesses have acknowledged this fact and begun to develop workable solutions. The Statum Solutions team, led by Fred Lizza, is one of the select few that has discovered the ideal solution to this serious issue afflicting healthcare.  

Statum Systems, a business that is facilitating great medical communication, is included in this issue of The Enterprise World’s Most Promising Digital Health Solution Providers in 2022.  

The Company | Statum Systems

Boston-based medical professionals founded the healthcare technology start-up Statum Systems. Concerned about the fragmented condition of medical communication systems in hospitals and healthcare facilities, particularly with regard to the continued use of old pagers and other specialised software and hardware that forces care team members to switch between several systems on a regular basis.  

To solve the problem, Statum Systems developed StatumHEALTHtm, a platform for unified medical communications and collaboration (UCC), which streamlines care team members’ workflows with an emphasis on better patient care. Additionally, Statum Systems created an optional ID badge holder that can record pager signals and transmit them wirelessly to StatumHEALTH on the user’s smartphone. The StatumCONNECTtm gadget replaces conventional pagers without sacrificing the reach and dependability of communications sent via pager-frequency. 

StatumHEALTH also gathers in-depth information on medical communications, analyses it, and looks for possibilities to enhance workflow, patient care, and financial performance. As StatumHEALTH collects more data and uses AI-based tools and predictive analytics on the data in next releases, the significance of this data-driven component of our service will increase. 

Taking on the Challenges- 

 “Statum Systems is poised to explode in 2022 as we move from beta testing to commercial release of StatumHEALTH.” 

Initial market reaction to Statum Systems has been overwhelmingly positive.  Everyone who sees their solution—doctors, surgeons, and other medical professionals—wants it.  This is due to hospitals’ accumulation of numerous specialised and single-purpose communications systems over the past 20 years. They don’t communicate with one another, only cover one or two parts of patient care, and force care team members to switch between various systems.  

The leadership group at Statum Systems is the ideal fusion of technologists and medical specialists.  While our CEO, SVP of Corporate Development, and members of the Advisory Board have many years of expertise in starting and expanding technology-based businesses, several of our co-founders have extensive medical experience. 

Since COVID has put a strain on hospital employees and made it evident that medical facilities need to modernise their IT systems. The medical UCC solutions will enforce HIPAA and security compliance, speed up bed turnover, decrease communication-based errors and delays, and streamline care team procedures. Medical communication infrastructure is changing from heterogeneous point solutions to integrated platforms, just like many other industries.   

The Products and the Services 

The three distinctive qualities that StatumHEALTH possesses that the competitors listed above lack are what give it a competitive edge:  

• Direct pager message transmission over low-frequency broadcast to a smartphone  

• A structure centred on the patient  
• Not a messaging system with a specific use, but a platform for unified enterprise-scale medical messaging and collaboration.

Direct Pager Messages from Low-Frequency to Smartphone 

Low-frequency bandwidths are used by pager service providers to transmit their pager messages, which offers a wider audience, more coverage, and improved reliability. Because of this, pagers are still used by more than 80% of US hospitals. This allows for the fast receipt of important messages even in locations like radiology suites where WiFi, 5G, and cellular signals are not always reliable. Statum Systems offers a variety of communication channels, such as direct pager message reception using StatumCONNECT, to ensure reliable message receipt without sacrificing efficiency.  

“By using our patented technology, we maintain the reach and reliability advantages of low frequency pager messages, but deliver rich messages directly to the users’ smartphones without store and forward delays.” 

Health-focused Architecture 

Statum Systems team created its architecture from the ground up to centre communications around the patient because many of its founders are from the healthcare world. Their “patient sessions” feature offers a place for synchronous and asynchronous dialogue among healthcare professionals.  

Competitive solutions do not enable a patient-centric mode of communication that enables all members of the patient’s care team to instantly gain knowledge of patient interactions and data. Competitors, on the other hand, rely on traditional peer-to-peer connections, which create compartmentalised conversations and demand repetition from those excluded.   

“Our patient session design allows all members of the patient’s care team to participate in the same conversation and be informed of any updates or changes to the patient’s condition,” says the company. 

Statum Systems makes it easier to communicate effectively and creates a natural centre for the collecting of communications data, which offers insights never previously seen by hospital administrators or executives. 

UCC Enterprise 

According to Statum Systems, the healthcare IT market is entering a cycle where these various systems will be progressively but consistently replaced by a unified medical communications and collaboration system after years of investment in constrained, single-purpose medical communications solutions. The transition to UCCs will make it easier for team members to learn and onboard, streamline workflows, and increase communications, all of which will lead to better and more efficient patient care, quicker bed turnover, and fewer mistakes. This is in line with cycles in other maturing sectors where specialised systems were phased out in favour of integrated platforms and suites.  

Leading the Way: Fred Lizza 

“Anyone who has never failed has never tried anything new,” the saying goes.
