Electronic Health Records (EHR, EMR)

Northland and Auckland district health boards (DHBs) have been given the green light for the long-awaited upgrade to their clinical record portal, according to an official release by healthAlliance, the Northern region’s shared IT service provider.

A national database of usability and safety issues, and enforcement of basic design and UX standards, are just two ways the promise of the past decade can be realized.

Trinity says the employees are being given better career opportunities because the EHR they worked on will no longer be in place.

The EHR vendor signed a corporate integrity agreement that lays out action items for the next five years.

The agency will continue its resolve to uncover and pursue cases to protect the public from corporate greed, U.S. Attorney Christina Nolan says.

The EHR maker allegedly falsified EHR certification, neglected to fix problems it knew about and paid customers kickbacks to recommend its product to others.

New capabilities will help clinicians spot high-risk patients, prescribe opioids more safely and reduce harm, the company said.

The vendor will also show how its technology can help improve the patient experience, enable ease of use for the clinicians who interact with its EHRs and boost operating margins for health systems navigating value-based care.

Data is a critical asset in the healthcare industry – our medical professionals rely on accurate and up-to-date clinical information in order to best assist patients.

CommonWell Health Alliance on Tuesday announced the new CommonWell Connector program, which offers access to the data exchange network for care providers and electronic health records who may not necessarily be CommonWell members.
