eClinicalWorks®: An Integral Part of Health Care Technology Trends

The eClinicalWorks® software platform is one of the most widely-used electronic medical record systems in the health care industry today. Here are three areas where this EMR makes an impact:

One of 2015’s “most interesting EMR vendors” 

First of all, Health Informatics listed eClinicalWorks® as one of 2015’s 100 “most interesting vendors,” due to its innovative software, widespread usage and high- profile customers. The article describes how the EMR has a customer base of more than 600,000 users and 100,000 physicians.

Interoperability

In addition, Heather Caouette’s August 2016 press release announces that leading EMRs such as eClinicalWorks® and Athena have adopted the CareQuality Interoperability Framework. The framework enables health record systems (EHRs), health information exchanges (HIEs) and record locator services (RLSs) to share data.

Growing trends in home health care 

Lastly, this recent New York Times article by John F. Wasik refers to a “home medical care renaissance” in the United States, and reveals a growing need and desire for a return to home medical care for the very elderly. The article quotes Dr. Thomas Cornwell, who has made more than 32,000 home visits. He affirms: “We can do X-rays, EKGs, medical records and other applications in the home …” If this trend continues, leading EMRs like eClinicalWorks® will play a significant role in accessing patient data during home visits, where visiting health care providers obtain patient data remotely on a regular basis.

With today’s increasing need for interoperability among health care providers, eClinicalWorks® is on the cutting edge. If you are a private healthcare provider with a staff of 1-100 employees, eClinicalWorks® offers solutions to streamlining your operations.
