Beyond Interoperability: Leveraging Technology & Networks For Information On Demand

Invitation-Only Lunch, Sponsored by Netsmart In a value-based, integrated healthcare world, it’s important to think beyond traditional connectivity to more widespread, on-demand integration. This is emerging as an essential element to driving clinical and operational efficiencies, ultimately resulting in higher quality outcomes at a lower cost. Care coordination and interoperability partnerships are driving and supporting this trend, including Carequality, a national public-private collaborative that facilitates connectivity across the healthcare ecosystem. Carequality links providers to one another and to Epic, eCW, NextGen, AthenaHealth and other entities outside HIEs. These networks can support the electronic exchange of referrals, progress notes, medication lists/allergies and lab results. Aggregate clinical and financial data can also be optimized for population health management and reduced risk.
