nipper Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 .... PKS has signed a new Software License and Support Agreement with ACT Pathology for its Clinical Decision Support Solution RippleDownââ€Å¾Ãƒ‚¢. ACT Pathology, a PKS customer since 2005 provides specialist pathology services at the Canberra Hospital, Calvary Public Hospital Bruce, University of Canberra Hospital, National Capital Private Hospital and in the community through collection centres located across Canberra. The new agreement which commences on 1 October 2019 is for a 17-month period with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. The value of new agreement is estimated to be $700,000, GST inclusive, over the 29-month period ....I try to take an interest when dealing with medical intervention. A marked aversion, pushback to Technology seems to be an all-too-common reality from the health practitioners I encounter. Don't rock the boat, it's all too hard, General Ignorance predominate.

nipper Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 PKS will acquire software-as-a-service healthcare business Pavilion Health, in an all scrip deal that values the target at $8.5 million. Pavilion shareholders will be issued 65.2 million new PKS shares as part of the deal, about 35 per cent of the company post acquisition. Pavilion is a cloud-based software company that provides audit, risk and consulting software services to hospitals and health bodies. Its customers include 550 hospitals in Australia (owned by the likes of listed giant Ramsay Health Care and private player Healthscope). Established in 2007, Pavilion generated $4.37 million in sales in the 2019 financial year and earnings of $1.66 million. PKS said it would be looking to combine its software products with Pavilion's to create a more compelling value proposition to potential customers and also facilitate cross-selling and upselling. PKS offers its customers a clinical decision management system, which uses patient data and clinical expertise to deliver patient-specific reports, recommendations and alerts.

nipper Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 some steady buying of PKS over the last few days, and hitting an all time high of 26.5c today . No news, but I guess results are due soon. Together with Alcidion ALC and newly floated Jayex JHL in this sector, I wonder of there is consolidation brewing?

nipper Posted February 22, 2021 Author Share Posted February 22, 2021 and now a Capital raise and SPP at 35c. Dilution looming, maybe because SPP capped at $1mill whereas those sophs can put in $11M. Mind you, only 4% under previous trades, so the upside is limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 We should see a near term future (only two to three years away) in which health systems start to move from a world of post-discharge data classification to concurrent computer-assisted coding. This will empower real time data analysis and clinical decision support so that clinical and financial outcomes can be optimized. PKS is well suited to transform the trusted client relationships it has built over the last two decades into long term development partnerships which will support such a fundamental change in the operating model of healthcare. Automated coding will be one of the most important data innovations in this decade: it will empower rapid improvement in the sustainability of health services and it will be the foundation stone on which genomics can enter the mainstream of clinical medicine – because it will solve the core problem of precision medicine: access to high quality real-time reference data that can support clinical interpretation of genetic variants. Our growth strategy has three pillars: + rapid scale of our core services, together with new product functionality and expansion in Australian and international markets; + development of new complementary products and services, including near real time comprehensive benchmarking services that will support health services understand more about their financial and clinical performance; + acceleration in research and development to support automated coding services and the deployment of our best-inclass decision support products in clinical practice beyond pathology.
