Maximising list organisation and allocation

The tried and tested Anaesthetics product, previously known as Alloc8tor, has been in use since January 2018. It is now being used widely to allocate anaesthetists to surgical lists around the UK.

Customisable notification settings. Real-time updates. Targeted invitations: only receive invitations to lists anaesthetists are able to do and want to accept.

Surgeons' secretaries are able to keep control of their surgeon's lists and ensure that they are never left without an anaesthetist at the last minute. Complete visibility of anaesthetist availability gives them peace of mind.

Reduce administrative hours to minutes

Southampton Anaesthetic Service (SAS) manages the huge logistical challenge of 75 anaesthetists, 16 locations and over 75 ad hoc lists a month.

SAS saved hundreds of administrative work hours because the platform is available to doctors and administrative staff 24/7. Straight away they could choose when and how to respond to available work.

Testimonials

"The MCH Software Solutions system has been a real blessing.  It saves us a huge amount of time in not having to look up operation codes and fees, as MCH does all this for us. The responses are indicated clearly in colour co-ordination, so you can see at a glance who is free and equally important who is not. I would recommend MCH Software Solutions to any business that works on a scheduling basis.   Simple to use and clear to read."
Stephanie Vernon
Senior Administrator, Southampton Anaesthetic Service
"The MCH Software Solutions platform has provided huge benefits both in terms of cost, morale and process. It has simplified shift advertising, to the right people with the right competencies, saving huge amounts of administration time. Before MCH Software Solutions, the management of our bank would take clinical staff members 4-7 hours a week to organise the on duty roster. MCH Software Solutions reduced this to 2 hours of an administrator's time."
