A Health Information Exchange solution connects information between healthcare providers by integrating disparate systems and enabling the exchange and use of critical patient information for making clinical decisions at the point of care. The Health Information Exchange solution from Orion Health® supports a diverse range of HIE requirements – from small rural hospital exchange through to State or Provincial wide solutions. Orion Health’s technology supports open integration with major EMR and EHR vendors, and can be deployed according to federated, centralized or hybrid models. Meaningful Integration For Improved HealthcareGaining access to more complete health information more quickly and at the point of care improves clinical decision-making, reduces medical errors and unnecessary tests and procedures. In simple terms, the goals are to reduce health care costs and improve the quality of care.Recently the ARRA has stated that in order to qualify under “meaningful use”, healthcare organizations and providers must be “connected in a manner that provides...for the electronic exchange of health information to improve quality of health care.” The focus on meaningful use is recognition that better health care does not come solely from the adoption of technology itself, but through the exchange and use of health information to make informed clinical decisions at the point of care. Proven Leadership in Delivering Improved OutcomesOrion Health has over 10 years experience in building HIE solutions and can help your organization achieve ‘meaningful use’ standards set by the ARRA without the cost and risk of replacing your existing IT systems.Orion Health’s innovative software provides a simple, flexible and extendable solution underpinned by two key pieces of leading edge technology. Integration: The fundamental success to any HIE is the ability to interface between multiple sources of information. An interface engine must not only be scalable to allow for growth and future development of the HIE solution, but most importantly be easy to use. The Orion Health Rhapsody® Integration Engine combines powerful messaging capabilities with a simple and easy to use interface, which means health IT administrators can quickly and easily create interfaces with new healthcare organizations, agencies and national programs. Rhapsody’s standards based technology enables it to integrate existing information systems within an organization, without the costly need to replace, as well as being able to connect to other regional networks such as the CDC, Medicare and private labs. Access: A modern, secure, web based physician portal is the foundation of an HIE. Orion Health Concerto® Portal ensures that the right information is accessible by the appropriate users at the right time by providing a single point of access to a unified view of patient information across the organization. Concerto Portal has been developed by physicians for physicians and includes world-class privacy and security standards for effective health information exchange while still protecting the patients right to privacy.
