eClinicalWorks and Epic Live with Interoperability between Systems Using Carequality Framework
Two Electronic Health Records Solutions Connecting Patient Records with Entira Family Clinics and HealthEast Hospital
BUSINESS WIRE 8:23 AM ET 4/13/2015
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- eClinicalWorks® and Epic, two of the most widely used electronic health record systems (EHR) in the U.S., today jointly announce interoperability between the companies’ EHR systems using the Carequality framework. This real-time data transfer between the systems facilitates coordination of care between providers in various care settings and ensures they have more complete and accurate patient information at the time of care. Together, the two companies’ patient record exchange networks represent over 1,000 hospitals and 40,000 clinics that are ready to connect.
Epic and eClinicalWorks are two of seventy organizations that joined Carequality to simplify inter-network connections and reliably accelerate national data sharing for the benefit of healthcare providers, their patients, payers and employers. State and regional HIEs, vendor-based networks, and large integrated delivery networks (IDNs) are all participating in Carequality. Epic and eClinicalWorks’ connection is currently being piloted with Minnesota’s Entira Family Clinics, which utilizes eClinicalWorks’ EHR, and HealthEast Hospital, using Epic’s EHR. Information from both systems is currently accessed on-demand and in real-time with data added into the patient’s progress note within the EHR, making this content part of the ongoing record.
“We provide our patients with the best care possible, necessitating information from all of their care givers,” said Dr. David Thorson of Entira Family Clinics. “Many of our patients are also seen by doctors at HealthEast Hospital, which could have created challenges due to different systems. Instead, we have a seamless view into our patients’ care, regardless of where it occurred. Knowing that eClinicalWorks and Epic, the technology partners for our organizations, have made interoperability a priority is one of the reasons we selected them.”
With the rapid rise of EHR adoption in recent years, industry focus has shifted to interoperability between systems, which allows for better transmission of data related to the care of a patient. eClinicalWorks and Epic have established the ease of securely exchanging patient records under the Carequality framework. Attendees at the HIMSS15 Annual Conference & Exhibition can learn more at the eClinicalWorks booth (#3413) and Epic booth (#1268).
“We are pleased to work with both eClinicalWorks and interested clinical organizations like Entira and HealthEast to further the cause of coordinated care through open, standards based interoperability,” said Carl Dvorak, President of Epic. “By collaborating together with organizations like HealtheWay and Carequality, we can ensure that where ever a patient receives care, they can securely provide their clinicians direct access to their records without concern that their data might be used for other purposes.”
“Technology should enhance care and reflect the realities of how it is delivered,” said Girish Navani, CEO and co-founder of eClinicalWorks. “Patients are seen in multiple settings that employ various systems. Our responsibility as vendors is to make this transition as seamless as possible. The work we have done with Carequality and Epic shows the commitment both our organizations have on what is truly important – giving providers the tools they need to deliver the best care possible to patients.”

Despite Increased Use of Electronic Medical Records, Fewer U.S. Doctors Believe It Improves Health Outcomes, Accenture Survey Shows
BUSINESS WIRE 7:03 AM ET 4/13/2015

QUOTES AS OF 04:01:36 PM ET 04/10/2015
CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- A new survey by Accenture(ACN) found that most U.S. doctors are more proficient using electronic medical records (EMR) than they were two years ago, but fewer believe that EMR has improved treatment decisions, reduced medical errors or improved health outcomes.
The U.S. findings, part of a six-country survey of more than 2,600 physicians, including roughly 600 in the United States, found that healthcare IT use among doctors has averaged double-digit growth, since Accenture(ACN) conducted a similar survey in 2012. However, despite doctors increasing their use of technology over that time, fewer physicians believe that EMR has improved treatment decisions (46 percent in 2015 vs. 62 percent in 2012), reduced medical errors (64 vs. 72 percent) and improved health outcomes for patients (46 vs. 58 percent).
“Despite the rapid uptake of electronic medical records, the industry is facing the reality that digital records alone are not sufficient to driving better, more-efficient care in the long-term," said Kaveh Safavi, M.D., J.D., who leads Accenture’s global health business. “The findings underscore the importance of adopting both technology and new care processes, as some leading health systems have already done, while ensuring that existing shortcomings in patient care are not further magnified by digitalization. The U.S. healthcare market has made remarkable progress in EMR adoption, and we believe that as the technology evolves, so too will the benefits to physicians and patient care.”
Increase Physician Adoption of Healthcare IT
The survey found that the vast majority – 79 percent – of U.S. doctors are more proficient using EMR than they were two years ago. The number of U.S. doctors who routinely use digital tools, such as secure e-mail, for communicating with patients has more than doubled since the last survey, to 30 percent, versus just 13 percent in 2012. The five IT capabilities that U.S. doctors use the most are: Entering patient notes electronically (82 percent); prescribing drugs electronically (72 percent); receiving clinical results directly into a patient’s EMR (65 percent); using electronic administration tools (63 percent); and sending e-order requests to laboratories (62 percent).
However, despite U.S. doctors’ increased use of technology, more than two-thirds (70 percent) of them believe that healthcare IT has decreased the amount of time they spend with patients. About three-fourths (76 percent) of those surveyed believe that interoperability of the tools currently available limits their ability to improve the quality of patient care through healthcare IT. Although nearly all U.S. doctors (90 percent) said that better functionality and easy-to-use data-entry systems are important for improving the quality of patient care through healthcare IT, more than half (58 percent) said that the electronic health record system in their organization is hard to use.
Increase in Online Services for Patients
Driven by growing demand for patient engagement, the majority of U.S. doctors surveyed reported an increase in the services they now provide patients online. The number of physicians offering tele-monitoring devices that enable patients to monitor their health has tripled since the last survey, from just 8 percent in 2012 to 24 percent now. Many U.S. doctors now provide patients with access to online medical records (55 percent) and electronic reminders for follow-up care (55 percent); enable them to book appointments online (46 percent) and view health-related information during consultation (36 percent); and offer consultations through videoconferencing (14 percent).
The survey also showed that U.S. doctors believe that allowing patients to update their own medical records increases their engagement in their own health (cited by 82 percent of respondents), improves patient satisfaction (81 percent), boosts understanding of their health conditions (72 percent), increases patient and physician communication (71 percent), and increases the accuracy of their medical records (60 percent).
“The industry needs to adapt to a new generation of patients who are taking proactive roles in their healthcare and expect to have real-time data at their fingertips,” said Safavi. “When patients have a greater role in the record-keeping process, it can increase their understanding of conditions, improve motivation and serve as a clear differentiator for clinical care provided by physicians."
Methodology
Accenture (ACN) commissioned a survey of 2,619 doctors in six countries to assess their adoption and attitudes toward electronic health records and healthcare IT. The six countries represented were the United States (601 respondents), Australia (510), Brazil (504), England (502), Norway (302) and Singapore (200). The survey was conducted online by Nielsen between December 2014 and January 2015. The analysis provided comparisons by country, sector, age and use.

LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 03/09/15 -- MMRGlobal, Inc.(MMRF) ("MMR"), a leading provider of Personal Health Records ("PHRs") through its patented MyMedicalRecords product and service offerings, today announced that the Company plans on reporting record revenues for Calendar Year 2014. This is in addition to previously announced results from the third quarter, which does not include the fourth quarter results and revenues from a third large retail pharmacy company. The Company will also announce its first sales and licensing agreement in Canada for the distribution of the MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record, where MMR holds a Canadian patent for "Method and System for Providing Online Medical Records." In 2015, MMR also plans on selling selected portions of its biotech assets which include a broad array of tissue, blood and tumor samples collected from its FavId™ vaccine trials that MMR is informed has significant value.
Additionally, the Company is in negotiations in numerous regions in the Middle East and with previous licensees in Japan regarding sales, licensing and other strategic opportunities involving its Personal Health Record products and services. Governments in the Middle East are focused on an agenda to utilize health IT as part of an ambitious expansion of their healthcare system, particularly pertaining to the fight against diabetes. Also, given the number of expats, MyMedicalRecords further responds to the needs of the region by providing instant access to health data 24/7 from any healthcare professional anywhere in the world. Japan also has mandates regarding the use of Personal Health Records which went into effect following the Tsunami disaster of 2011. MMR has Personal Health Record patents both issued and pending in Japan.
In most GCC countries, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) along with demographic changes are shifting the burden of disease to lifestyle habits and risky behaviors. Diabetes is a #1 health problem, with cardiovascular disease, hypertension and obesity on the rise. Coordinating care for the chronic disease pandemic is essential, and having real-time access to health information in an emergency can be life-saving. MyMedicalRecords enables timely communication between patients and their healthcare providers to reduce medical errors and more effectively manage care.
MyMedicalRecords is a secure, easy-to-use, comprehensive Personal Health Record that uses its patented technologies to give patients and healthcare providers the ability share medical records interoperably into a PHR account. The information is then accessible from any Internet-connected computer anywhere in the world with no special hardware or software requirements. A separate Emergency Login feature enables first responders and medical personnel to have read-only access to potentially life-saving information in the event of a medical emergency.
In addition to being a leading provider of secure and easy-to-use Personal Health Records through its MyMedicalRecords PHR, MMR also offers the MMRPro document management and imaging systems for healthcare professionals, and the MyEsafeDepositBox solution which provides an online site to securely store important legal, financial, insurance and other important documents, as well as medical and personal health information. MMR currently has 13 issued U.S. health IT patents including U.S. Patent Nos. 8,301,466; 8,352,287; 8,352,288; 8,121,855; 8,117,646; 8,117,045; 8,321,240; 8,498,883; 8,626,532, 8,645,161; 8,725,537; 8,768,725 and 8,775,212, as well as additional applications and continuation applications involving inventions pertaining to Personal Health Records, Patient Portals and other Electronic Health Record systems. Beyond the U.S., MMR has patents issued, pending and/or applied for in 11 other countries or regional authorities of commercial interest including Australia, Singapore, New Zealand, Mexico, Japan, Canada, Hong Kong, China, South Korea, Israel and Europe.

ObamaCare’s Electronic-Records Debacle
The rule raises health-care costs even as it means doctors see fewer patients while providing worse care.
By JEFFREY A. SINGER
The debate over ObamaCare has obscured another important example of government meddling in medicine. Starting this year, physicians like myself who treat Medicare patients must adopt electronic health records, known as EHRs, which are digital versions of a patient’s paper charts..........
http://www.wsj.com/articles/jeffrey-a-singer-obamacares-electronic-records-debacle-1424133213
Looks like we can thank Redburns for contacting the SEC on our behalf to stop Mr. Markup. Finally...
Fair and square......
how's your pair?
Much better now, thank you..
Hey J, how are you doing?
EZ
I agree 100% with your comments on the other board!
It's a damn shame, time to get out a whole bunch of drones!!
