What did Oneview announce?

Investors are snapping up Oneview shares after the company added its first Cloud Start customer in Australia.

In today's statement, Oneview advised it has signed a key provider of public healthcare in Melbourne's northern region, Northern Health.

Established in 2000, Northern Health is the major provider of acute, maternity, sub-acute and specialist services in Melbourne's outer northern suburbs. The group comprises four main campuses which are Northern Hospital Epping, Broadmeadows Hospital, Bundoora Centre, and the Craigieburn Centre.

The emergency department treats over 107,000 patients, with over 94,000 patients admitted to hospital each year.

Under the agreement, Oneview's Cloud Start product will be deployed to the Northern Hospital Stage 2 Inpatient Unit Expansion Project. The $162.3 million facility will enable patients to communicate with their clinicians through a digital platform. In turn, users can also connect with family and friends, view entertainment streaming services, and engage in patient education.

The project is expected to go live sometime in the third quarter of 2021. No financial details were given in relation to the revenue generation of the contract.
