Building Connected Healthcare Communities
> Healthvision has been in the ehealth buisiness since 1999
> Outside of the internet boom, this is the fastest reform we have witnessed.
> We have 25 connected healthcare communities operating exchanges that equal nearly 8 million patient records in our clinical data repository.
> Past model has been sponsored by healthcare systems to connect their referring and staff physicians in order to get information about the patients inpatient stay and connect that to a single patient record.
> Today, entire communities are involved in building RHIO’s. We are proud to be a part of what the Wall Street Journal called the best example of a connected healthcare community in the country the Taconic IPA or MedAllies efforts in the Hudson Valley.
