The Clinical Portal – A Powerful Means to Leverage Your Current Healthcare Information Systems Environment

Dr. Meera Kanhouwa, Medical Director Information Services, Swedish Medical Center, Seattle, WA and Andy Davidson, Director, FCG present a case study detailing the tremendous hard and soft dollar value generated through the implementation of a clinical portal.  For almost 2 years, Swedish has used a clinical portal to aggregate data from 19 disparate applications across their multi-hospital enterprise.  Prior to implementing this solution, clinical users had no way to see a patient’s records across the continuum of care as patient centric data is housed in separate systems under separate identifiers.  Now clinical users can access a real-time patient- centric virtual health record from anywhere they can access the web.   Find out how Swedish has used this solution to benefit physicians and patients, while leveraging existing investments in their application portfolio.
