Electronic Discharge Summaries
Electronic Discharge Summaries (EDS) allows clinical staff to automatically create a legible, accurate discharge summary letter, ready to be printed and given to patients as they depart the hospital. This letter can be simultaneously transmitted to clinical databases and primary care providers.

An EDS solution from Orion Health is a low cost, low risk entry point for hospitals developing clinical information systems to improve the flow of patient information between primary & secondary care providers.

Orion Health’s solution offers low risk implementation with immediate benefits including:
  • Standardized clinical documentation quality and completeness
  • Improved legibility of the medical record
  • Streamlined clinical workflow
  • Reduced paper
  • Improved communication of electronic information to other healthcare providers
  • Enhanced security of the medical record

Orion Health EDS is also an ideal starting point for clinical staff as they move toward a full electronic health record system – as the solution is designed to integrate seamlessly with existing information systems.

There is a short lead-time from purchase to full implementation and the system can be scaled up as users become more comfortable with the software.

Orion Health EDS creates discharge summaries that are pre-populated with data from hospital information systems.

Orion Health applications are designed to connect seamlessly into Orion Health's Clinical Portal and the Rhapsody Integration Engine that offer robust security and privacy features – ensuring that the right information is transferred to the patient’s primary care provider/s.
