The medical field is continuously changing and evolving with new technologies, practices, and innovations; and every so often, new diseases emerge. To stay up to date with the latest developments and potential outbreaks, technologies are needed for data collection and management.  

Increasingly, government and health care organisations are utilising statistical analysis to determine the overall health and well-being of populations. The COVID-19 pandemic has particularly demonstrated that for much of the health care system, it is a numbers game. 

Clinimetrix, aka CMx, the who? the why? and the how?

A short history....

I started building Clinimetrix (CMx) in 2016. It was in response to the rather poor outputs of practice management software (PMS) when it came to any type of understanding of the business. Although in the last 5 years that has changed a little, most PMS’s still provide simple linear outputs with no way of making deductive steps once the search has taken place.

Learnings, updates, and improvements--from a consortium of industry experts

CMx, over the past 5 years, has become somewhat of a passion and grown significantly from its first iteration with input from many GPs, nurses, finance and operational staff, not only in our own practices, but across our client base.

Not just the financial metrics, lets focus on clinical outcomes

The first builds of CMx were all about understanding the numbers, how many patients and their demographics, what item codes were used and how practitioners behaved. In less than a couple of months from launch our nursing team identified a way to use the software to assess the patients who had and had not been seen for key items. This started with cycles of care and health assessments and quickly grew to include other clinical assessments.

Introducing our newest member... Dr Ron Tomlins joins the CMx team as a clinical adviser. He has 40 years experience in General Practice, the last 23 years at Castle Hill Medical Centre in NSW. His focus has been on long-term conditions such as asthma, COPD, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. He believes passionately that IT solutions such as Clinimetrix can help GPs deliver better health outcomes for their patients and enhance sustainability for practices..

We've made some serious upgrades to Clinimetrix! Clinimetrix, also known as CMx, a nickname repeatedly thrown around by our clients and team, is now even better than ever! Our developers have been working diligently and enthusiastically since December 2020 on new improvements to the Clinimetrix platform. Thanks to the close contact we have with our clients, and the brilliant engineering and inquisitive nature of our Clinimetrix technical and analytics team members, much progress has been made to make unpacking the data even easier...
