Support

Health Analytics provides 24-hour support for our customers from our offices in Cambridge UK.

Support includes the following, where appropriate:

  • Regular import, validation and scoring of GP episode data. This is a largely automatic process.
  • Monitoring system performance including machine loads, response times, and Model output.
  • Ensuring that system users can review the latest model reports online.
  • Providing email/ phone/ on-site support for the system as required.
  • Product updates.
  • Tracking changes to source data, for example Read Codes and ICD10 codes etc.
  • Managing user access and general user support issues (PCT and GPs).
  • Monitoring and updates to cope with "non standard" GP codings as necessary.
  • User training as required.

We need controlled remote access to our systems in order to be able to support them in a timely manner. Where systems are running in PCT data centres we typically negotiate limited VPN access to enable us to do this.

Licensing

Our products are licensed on a per-commissioning organization basis with pricing being dependent upon the number of patients and surgeries supported.
