"Quture will begin working with them at their next HFACS training session in Daytona on June 7th and has already begun development of the HFACS software technology. "
.....Douglas Wiegmann, Ph.D., one of the two principals in HFACS, Inc. "We believe our work with Quture to market the software technology of our system will exponentially improve our ability to work with current and prospective healthcare users of our analysis and classification system to improve patient safety and outcomes."
Second, Quture is preparing to license and install its QualOptima Analytics Informatics Platform as "platform-as-a-service" (PaaS) licenses. HFACS will supplement the QualOptima system for classification, including HFACS nanocodes, to propel its adoption in the United States and internationally. Quture will market, install, and support the HFACS software technology as a stand-alone system for risk management in healthcare, as well as embed with its existing technology in QualOptma version 1.3.
"HFACS is excited to collaborate with Quture for the development of our software," said Scott Shappell, Ph.D., the other principal in HFACS, Inc. ....Our combined expertise, now being coded by Quture into software, demonstrates our joint commitment to diagnose the causes of medical errors, but equally important, to implement methods to solve them. In our system, we call that HFIX.
Quture intends to immediately market QualOptima with HFACS to medical malpractice insurance companies and to hospital system self-insured trusts.
