Health Information Exchanges
Providing software solutions for Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) is our core business. A Health Information Exchange is a network, allowing our customers to exchange clinical data to support key clinical processes. Examples include imaging networks, referral networks and communication to GPs. An HIE can be built around a single hospital, or can cover a regional or national group of healthcare institutions.
Key benefits of a Health Information Exchange are:
- Improving the quality of care by instant access to clinical data, inside and outside the healthcare institution.
- Improving efficiency in care processes, saving time (instant access) and cost (time, transport).
- Securing relationships with your clinical partners by providing a highly-valued information system, which suppors their work flows.
- Patient-centric information access, demonstrating to your patients that care professionals spent their time caring about them – not chasing information.
Forcare’s software suite offers a standards-based, modular solution to build HIEs. We provide all the key components of a modern HIE, and offer the following advantages:
- We leverage existing information systems, connecting them into a “information sharing infrastructure”.
- We provide smart solutions, leaving information “at the source”, yet provide access from a central clinical portal.
- We offer a modular solution, based on the IHE (Integration the Healthcare Enterprise) standards, most notably IHE XDS – Cross-Enterprise Documentation Sharing.
- We use open standards, and integrate seamlessly with other vendor's components.
