OncoSmart is claimed to ease the complexities of cancer clinic operations, optimise resources, and boost capacity.
As the platform comes with clinic management, optimisation, nurse assignment, business intelligence, and resource management modules, it helps infusion centres to manage their important clinical resources in a better fashion and provide the best in cancer care.
The artificial intelligence-generated solutions offered by the OncoSmart platform are claimed to support a varied group of clinics with differing sizes and volumes, besides optimising different service types such as lab, treatment, and injections.
OncoSmart products are claimed to cut down patient appointment delays and wait times, help unlock infusion chair capacity, lower infusion treatments that go beyond operating hours and overtime costs, and generate a more balanced nurse load via schedule optimisation.

By GlobalDataOneOncology CEO Jeff Patton said: “Smirta’s OncoSmart platform has been invaluable in establishing a superior scheduling process to smooth out the day and boost patient care by flattening the utilisation curve so that the ratio of clinical staff to patients remains consistent and ramps more evenly throughout the day.”
Smitra has also already worked with Tennessee Oncology and Piedmont Cancer Institute, both of whom are partner practices of OneOncology.
Commenting on the OncoSmart platform, Piedmont Cancer Institute chief clinical officer Stephanie Braatz said: “The OncoSmart platform offers tools that streamline our infusion centre operations, and their optimisation tool has helped us effectively utilise our resources by balancing the patient load across different types of service.
“The business intelligence tool has identified bottlenecks, such as provider schedules, and has helped us find solutions to fix them. The nurse assignments tool has tremendously, and positively, affected the reduction of manual effort while showing us a view of the treatment room that we simply weren’t able to see before. The entire team and suite of tools have added value.”
