The modules listed below are included for FREE. Galaxy also offers a complete suite of clinical and financial products for a small monthly fee. To see more details about those products, please visit the main Galaxy website at galaxyhosted.com.
MDS
Galaxy's MDS is as easy as it gets. The data entry screens look just like
the paper forms. The system knows in advance the due dates for completion of
each resident's next Assessment, based on Regulations and Facility Policy,
as well as the range of allowable Assessment Reference Dates (ARD). Galaxy's
MDS allows for gathering additional detail which helps determine which
legitimate answers will enhance RUGs scores, aid in the completion of CAAs,
and flow directly to the Care Plan. In addition to preventing submission
fatal errors or warnings, other inconsistencies, even between different
sections, are flagged for your consideration. Galaxy "does" the CAAs for
you, virtually instantaneously. Galaxy's Case Mix Advisor™ analyses the ADL
score and RUGs calculation to promote the highest reimbursement.
The Galaxy MDS is Bi-Lingual. MDS can be entered and printed in both English and Spanish, an important consideration in some areas for resident and family involvement addressed in the QIS Survey.
Also included with Galaxy's MDS is MaxTrax™.. For residents whose next
Assessment will be used to determine the RUGs score, MaxTrax™ tells you what
MDS items need to be tracked for which residents for days which may fall in
the Assessment Lookback Period. It prompts your STNAs to enter ADL and other
MDS data during each shift into hallway-located touchscreens, handheld
devices, or tablets, and then determines the best ARD. The result is a set
of well-documented MDS answers for the highest RUGs scores.
Galaxy's MDS is fully integrated with the Galaxy Care Plan module. You can
jump from any section in the MDS (including CAAs) to Care Plan. With one
click, you can view a complete draft Care Plan, exactingly individualized
for that resident.
MDS reports include the 672 (Census and Conditions), 802
(Roster/Matrix), Weight Variance, Due Dates, Medicare/Medicaid, and user
definable statistics.
ADT (Admissions, Discharges & Transfers)
ADT includes:
- Resident Master
- Marketing and Inquiries
- Customized Admission Record and Transfer Forms
- Customized Agreements and Consent Forms
The Resident Master is shared by Billing and Clinical Modules and contains a host of information that can be used by many departments. Galaxy maintains a regularly updated ICD9 Table for maintaining resident diagnoses. Resident lists can be printed with many different options.
The Marketing System allows you to record incoming inquires and referrals, create a reminder or to-do list for follow through, track results and analyze statistics, such as:
- Who are the major referral sources for Medicare and Private Pay residents?
- What percentage of inquires culminate in a visit, and what percentage of visits result in an admission?
- What is the average time span between a visit and an admission?
It saves all the information you collect during the inquiry process, and this data does not need to be re-entered upon admission. The Admission Record (commonly known as the “Face Sheet”) and other similar forms can be customized according to each facility's needs.
You can create templates from your Admission Agreements (and a chain, as may be necessary, could even have different Agreements for different facilities), Consent Forms, and other documents. Then, you can print those Agreements and Forms merged with the information in the Resident Master.
CALENDAR
Schedule conflicts are a thing of the past! Identify each facility activity (Bingo, movie night, a trip to the park, etc.), as well as other functions, such as therapy and doctor visits, even different types of staff meetings. Then schedule the various times these functions will occur. You can limit the number of participants in a given function, and even designate some functions as for women or men only. When you try to schedule a function that requires the van, Calendar will warn you if the van is already scheduled for another function during that time frame. The same is true for scheduling a resident for an activity when she is already scheduled for PT during that time. You can easily record and maintain accurate, historical attendance records.
GALAXY REPORTER
Maintain maximum security and maximum flexibility. The Galaxy report creation tool is actually two modules: Galaxy Reporter is a complete report generator, and Custom Reports is a separately passworded module that allows for viewing reports that protect the raw data that might be accessed when creating the reports. With Galaxy Reporter, you can directly type SQL, and even use the scripting language to incorporate the most sophisticated logic, but you don't have to!
Galaxy Reporter provides you with an SQL Wizard so that you can automatically create reports without knowing SQL at all. You can even create input fields to allow those viewing or printing the report to specify filters (such as a date range, specified facility with a chain, financial class, etc.).
