SAN DIEGO, July 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Atrium Health care providers and partners will soon be able to send and receive bi-directional critical healthcare information for pre-hospital treatment provided by emergency responders. After significant review of available systems, Atrium Health has selected the Golden Hour / emsCharts EMS Health Information Exchange (emsHIE) solution as the standard throughout the entire Atrium Health system. emsHIE captures patient care data from Atrium Health partner EMS Agencies and first responders throughout North and South Carolina and beyond that are documenting the pre-hospital encounter using either emsCharts or another 3rd party ePCR system.
"Having access to important treatment, interventions, and other critical patient data prior to arrival at the ER enables physicians to provide the best possible care, improving critical decision making and gaining a better understanding of the patient experience while under the care of the EMS responder," said Dr. Kevin Hutton, Chairman and CEO of Golden Hour / emsCharts. "In return, EMS Agencies will receive patient outcome data which helps them validate the services they provide and improve overall patient pre-hospital care and outcomes while also reducing labor intensive follow up tasks."
"We searched to find a partner that could work with patient care records from multiple sources while also meeting our corporate technology standards with an easy to implement solution," said Jason Schwebach, vice president of Atrium Health's Mobile Medicine. "The emsHIE Platform from emsCharts meets our needs, especially in the way the process seamlessly connects the patient care records to our hospital EMR without the need for added process complexity or additional hardware."
The emsHIE solution is part of the proven multi-tenant EMS integration platform from Golden Hour and emsCharts. It provides value to both hospitals and EMS transport agencies in many areas including compliance, handoff of patient care records, elimination of manual processes, physician transparency, and integrated analytics.
