Patient Centered Care Model – EMR
+
+
With an average of 500+ applications
per hospital, an integrated and homo-
geneous solution is needed to best
enable patient care.
Collecting and sharing clinical infor-
mation like genomic, pathology,
and imaging are key build blocks
to achieving a “Complete EMR.”
KEY DRIVERS:
Clinical Workflow
Patient Engagement
Care Anywhere
7. I 7
Data Readiness and Interoperability
The journey to improved clinical outcomes while bending the
cost curve requires an ongoing, multi-year comprehensive
data management strategy and platform.
Devising longer-term road maps will help you
identify and implement new IT solutions to
collect, access, secure, and analyze all data
created in the patient care continuum.
Roadmap may additionally save you
money by consolidating projects
and work.

Personalized Medicine
As personalized medicine gains momentum and genomics become
mainstream in the care model, aggregating and sharing clinical data
to all care givers and researchers will become the next mandate.
