eClinicalWorks Announces Successful Deployment with CommonWell Health AllianceHIMSS Conference, Booth #150-eClinicalWorks®, a leader in ambulatory healthcare IT solutions, furthers its contribution to advancing affordable nationwide health data sharing by announcing its successful deployment of CommonWell Health Alliance services. As a Contributor Member of CommonWell, eClinicalWorks can now support the seamless exchange of data for its customers. Built on a vendor-neutral platform, CommonWell services are built directly in a member company's software, allowing health information to easily be shared among participating care locations and across disparate EHRs. To date, CommonWell has more than 9,800 provider sites committed to using its interoperability services, including more than 5,100 live today. All practices that have upgraded to the latest version of the eClinicalWorks software are eligible to activate CommonWell services. CommonWell integration for patient linking and enrollment is tightly integrated into the eClinicalWorks Practice Management workflows and once network links are established per patient, eClinicalWorks has automated the clinical data retrieval from external systems to be fetched and rendered in the right chart panel of the progress note. The CommonWell services also allow users in other systems to query and retrieve the CCDAs of common patients from eClinicalWorks practices for the purposes of treatment. Primary Care of the Andovers, a Circle Health affiliated primary care practice using eClinicalWorks EHR for past 3 years said, "CommonWell Health Alliance was critical in enabling the interoperability that was needed between our practice, which is on eClinicalWorks, and Lowell General Hospital, which uses Cerner (News - Alert). This connection truly helps us better coordinate care. We have a significant patient population overlap with the hospital and being able to seamlessly exchange information within the EHR workflow creates a big win for the clinicians at our practice, the hospital providers and the patients who ultimately get the best possible care."
"eClinicalWorks has developed strong partnerships and continued collaborations with its customers and industry vendors with the main goal of making it easier for providers to share data across systems," said Girish Navani, CEO and co-founder of eClinicalWorks. "As a member of CommonWell Health Alliance, eClinicalWorks is committed to providing affordable interoperability to all customers to facilitate coordination of care and to ensure providers have complete and accurate patient information."
