When hospital communications break down, or when clinical decisions are made with the wrong or incomplete information — or decisions that are delayed for hours instead of minutes — what exactly is at risk? It isn’t just your bottom line. Yes, Photon saves time. It also saves money. But far more importantly, it can save your patients!
