ConversePoint to devleop healtcare communication solution

Chicago-based ConversePoint, a privately owned company based in Chicago, has announced its plans to develop and commercialize a communications platform for the healthcare industry that will significantly save clinicians time, hospitals millions in productivity costs and improve accountability measurements for critical events per the Joint Commission's National Patient Safety Goals along with the license of key Qualcomm technology.

The ConversePoint platform will integrate asynchronous communication technology developed by Qualcomm Incorporated, the world leader in 3G and next-generation mobile technologies, with proprietary ConversePoint technologies to create a new, superior and agnostic solution that will work seamlessly with multiple mobile communication standards, mobile carriers, or mobile devices.

"ConversePoint will greatly improve how hospitals function," said Shawn Evans, Chief of Staff and Attending Emergency Physician for Scripps Memorial La Jolla Hospital based in San Diego, CA. "Until now, there has been no solution that truly understands the needs of clinicians and effectively solves them. It allows us much greater efficiencies, which translates into better patient care."

Don Jones, VP of Wireless Health Global Strategy and Market Development for Qualcomm Labs and a member of ConversePoint's advisory team, states, "Qualcomm selected ConversePoint because of the team's extensive expertise in building complex, high-value, telecom-grade mobile and software technologies that fuel game-changing businesses. ConversePoint will change the notoriously hectic nature of communications in today's healthcare environment."
