The agreement will not only help Hendricks Regional Health Medical Group (HRHMG) improve patient care, but will position it to join the future Regional Health Information Organization (RHIO) in Indiana.
eClinicalWorks is also working with HRHMG to develop an interface with Meditech to streamline the process of sending and receiving lab work, and an interface with the hospital’s PACS system for viewing radiological images.
HRHMG’s medical network offers comprehensive care, specializing in fields such as internal medicine, family practice and paediatrics. The network offers locations in Danville, Avon, Brownsburg, Plainfield and Lizton. By providing its healthcare providers with eClinicalWorks, HRHMG expects to be able to streamline internal processes between the health system’s hospital and multiple satellite facilities, and promote patient safety while reducing costs.
HRHMG will be part of a future state-wide RHIO, a regional collaboration between healthcare providers, in which patient information can be securely stored but is electronically accessible to those involved with providing care for patients within a community. Electronic medical records (EMRs) play a critical role in the formation of RHIOs as they bring patient information from paper charts to an electronic format that can be shared among qualified parties with patient consent.
eClinicalWorks’ modern web-based architecture and flexibility with interfaces allows physicians to manage their entire practice as they see fit, said Girish Kumar Navani, president of eClinicalWorks. Our EMR/PM’s comprehensive functionality gives Hendricks Regional Health Medical Group a system that will help automate and optimize both clinical and financial processes. In addition, we will integrate eClinicalWorks with the Meditech hospital system to increase transparency with the lab and radiology processes.
eClinicalWorks’ EMR system allows HRHMG to manage patient flow, immediately access patient records in-house or remotely, electronically communicate with the referring physicians and securely send consult notes and clinical data. Users can access and review complete patient histories, past visits, current medications, allergies, labs and charts. Integrated with EMR is eClinicalWorks practice management, designed to instantly streamline and enhance the medical billing process.
