what is interoperabilityInteroperability is one of the hottest topics in the health care industry right now. But what does it have to do with you, the provider?

In Part 1 of our series on interoperability, we explained how interoperability can help practices take the next step in electronic health records exchange, and ultimately help improve care and outcomes, and reduce costs.

The official definition from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC):

Interoperable [in-ter-op-er-uh-buhl]
NounThe ability of a system to exchange electronic health information and use electronic health information from other systems without special effort on the part of the user.

Boiled down, it’s the capability for different electronic health records (EHR’s) or computer systems to communicate.

Just like with geographical boundaries, language barriers have existed in the health care world. iShare Medical has created solutions, so that computer systems between organizations and practices can communicate electronically.

A new day is dawning and providers see the vision of the possibilities of improving care by sharing medical records. Imagine being able to easily respond to patient records requests, without worry about HIPPA violations or long waits or erroneous fax sends or laborious re-entry of data points.

Imagine a smooth system of sharing and exchanging electronic health information between different doctors, labs, specialists, departments or health care systems. Imagine being able to immediately review a patient’s history, or lab report, or consult with another provider all within the protection of a highly secure, protected email-like tool.

Interoperability facilitates that. Now at iShare Medical.
