Referral process

EMR is designed for point of care delivery and not to track care across providers and for referral management. Today there are many vendors supporting different processes at the facility level with lack of integration between different systems. So the referral process is still very disintegrated even when a referral is made out of an EMR system as the receiving end may not use the same EMR. This poses a big challenge in terms of having one view of the patients across the continuum and assess the financial , clinical and operational outcome of a referral. Also the health care exchanges doesn’t address the process issue and this poses another layer of complexity. Because of this, today we have different versions, softwares and exchanges for post care, ambulatory care, acute care etc and healthcare entities spend a ton of money to add these integrations. This is why MedVoy provides a centralized secure referral management process which not only connects to the back end clinical system but more importantly makes the referral process integrated so as to get a one shot view of the patient across the continuum and assess the outcomes associated with each referrals by the use of sophisticated business intelligence and analytics.
