N.Y. Health Information Network harnesses MedLink, Thrasys systems
MedLink, in collaboration with Thrasys, have formed the New York Health Information Network (NYHIN), a regional health information network that falls under the Connected Healthcare initiative launched by the two companies earlier this year.
Connected Healthcare and regional health information networks will enable physicians, patients, service centers and health plans to coordinate care, manage costs, increase revenues, improve outcomes and enhance patient experience, MedLink stated.
NYHIN will provide interoperability, applications and services using Thrasys’ cloud-based SyntraNet connected healthcare platform, which provides an open foundation for collaborative healthcare networks.
NYHIN will implement a health information exchange (HIE), enabling providers to meet interoperability requirements for meaningful use, and deliver applications and services including EHRs, practice management services, e-prescribing, group purchasing, insurance and eligibility verification, remote charge capture, physician quality reporting, patient portals, and services to enable accountable care organizations and patient-centered medical homes.
