Xybion launches app for post-COVID-19 return-to-work

Software and consulting company Xybion Corporation has announced the release of a new cloud-based software application to assist employers in documenting and managing the return to work in post-COVID-19 workplace management.

Xybion’s Exigency-ERT is built on its existing workplace health and safety platform, Emidence XD. The application will also help employers comply with emerging government mandates and safe-workplace rules in the wake of COVID-19. For healthcare employers, this also provides respirator mask fittings for all healthcare employees.

Immediate benefits of Exigency-ERT include:

• Enabling employees to self-report their status for potential COVID-19 infection and automatically notifying supervisors and executive teams.
• Tracing, tracking and notifying all contacts with other employees made by the infected employee at the workplace.
• Managing all cases through a “command center” case-management platform for all aspects of the case, care and claims, all government reporting, corrective actions, training and more. This can be used by both employers and insurance carriers.

Xybion’s workplace safety platform, Emidence XD, was selected by Northwell Health to manage workplace safety for 72,000 employees across 23 hospitals and nearly 800 clinical facilities. Northwell Health is New York state’s largest healthcare provider and private employer.

“We are excited to have Xybion’s Emidence platform,” said Joseph F. Molloy, vice president of workplace safety for Northwell Health. “We use it for workers’ compensation program administration, including return-to-work, medical case management, safety, safe patient handling and industrial hygiene.”
