Electronic Health Record (EHR)




Creates Regional Health Record System

To improve the delivery of patient care, clinicians require a secure technology platform that breaks down communication barriers between organisations and provides single-sign-on access to patient data. Orion Health EHR is designed to enhance existing healthcare services through widespread regional collaboration and exchange of clinical data between healthcare organisations. Based upon IHE and HL7 standards:

  • Clinicians can instantly access real time, complete and accurate patient information no matter where care was provided.
  • Patients as a result receive benefits from faster, more accurate services and a higher quality of overall care.

Orion Health EHR leverages the world-leading integration capabilities of Orion Health Rhapsody, allowing for seamless interaction between multiple systems as well as consistent data outputs aimed at enhancing future regional reporting and management.




Streamlines Clinical Workflow

Intelligently presenting additional value to clinicians at numerous organisations - regardless of their specific workflow practices - is a core requirement for a successful EHR. Orion Health provides two options for the exchange of data:

  • Orion Health Clinical Portal – a single sign on and highly intuitive web-based portal
  • Existing organisational EMR systems

With no need to re-engineer clinical workflows, and a rapid implementation process, widespread acceptance and adoption are guaranteed. The resulting longitudinal record is tailored specifically to clinical users and helps facilitate more-informed decision making, as well as eliminating the need for clinicians to step outside their workflow to source important patient information.

Improves Operational Efficiency

At its core the Orion Health EHR is designed to deliver efficiencies within organisations and across regions. Orion Health EHR reduces costs and increases efficiency in operations by:

  • Reducing instances of rework
  • Reducing duplication of tests / prescriptions / procedures
  • Enabling reductions in hospital admissions.

Clinicians who are armed with more complete and timely information can provide distinctly higher quality of care while simultaneously improving the coordination of this care. Patients who see several providers and receive care in more than one setting benefit hugely from this increased level of informed decision making. Patients are empowered to take a more proactive role in their own health, allowing for cost burdens to be reduced at both organisational and community level.
