Patient health information access when and where it is needed
MobileMD 4DX Enterprise AccessTM is invaluable to those health systems planning a connectivity strategy that reaches out to their entire community, including those practices that have not yet opted to implement an electronic medical record.
4DX Enterprise AccessTM enables progressive health systems with the ability to:
- provide electronic feeds, in a practice-centric view, to physician practices that have not yet implemented an EMR,
- aggregate clinical data into a comprehensive data repository against which various reports and analytics can be executed, thus enhancing decision support through the use of technology, and
- provide interoperability with the MobileMD HIE through a standards-based API.
The benefits are enormous and stretch across the entire healthcare community. Practices with EMR systems benefit from real-time data feeds facilitated via MobileMD's 4D HIE.
| "Before, when a patient called the office to inquire about test results, the office staff took a message and went to the health system portal to see if the results were available -- they logged in and searched for the patient, then looked for the correct result. Now, as soon as the result is available, it appears in the practice's instance of 4DX Enterprise Access. The office has immediate access to the result, and, often, is able to contact the patient, communicating the outcome of the test before the patient calls. The practice is thus able to be more responsive to its patients' needs and, at the same time, be in command of a much more efficient process." -- John Skinner, EVP, MobileMD |
Practices not yet automated are provided access to the same electronic information and efficiencies as their counterparts through the EMR features of 4DX Enterprise AccessTM.
Unlike traditional hospital portals, the EMR features of 4DX Enterprise AccessTM organize patient health information in a manner that is specifically intended and designed for physician practices. Using an "in box" metaphor, practices have access to numerous features including: results and reports viewing, searching, printing and mangagement, electronic ordering, electronic prescription, and ad hoc messaging and eReferrals (with attachment capability) via 4DX Enterprise Access' eShareTM module.
The bottom line: 4DX Enterprise AccessTM allows health systems to replace the cumbersome and time-intensive faxing and mailing processes with secure, auditable, electronic access for their physician community. The result is faster communications, better controls, fewer lost reports, and more effective communications with patients – in other words, enhanced patient care, improved patient/physician relationships, better patient outcomes, and reduced costs.
Please note: once the "meaningful use" certification requirements are finalized and the certification process is established and available, Enterprise Access will undergo the prescribed certification process to be certified as a very cost-effective "meaningful use" AEMR.
