Improve and extend your EMR’s capabilities with the OnBase Integration for Epic
Supplying the best patient care possible comes down to having the right information. Gathering the necessary information is one thing, but storing and retrieving it is another. If your organization relies only on an electronic medical record (EMR), your staff can’t access to up to 25 percent of the patient file. Without this information, how can your clinicians and staff hope to provide high quality care?
By integrating your Epic EMR with the OnBase enterprise content management (ECM) solution, all patient information becomes immediately available within the Epic environment. More than 100 Epic customers use OnBase to securely store unstructured content – including paper, forms, faxes, clinical images and videos – and link it directly to their EMR. That way, clinicians and staff always know where to find the information they need.
Based on a true API approach, the OnBase Integration for Epic provides functionality to ensure a seamless interaction with your EMR and clinical IT environment. Designed specifically for Epic, the solution enables you to sign in and retrieve any documents directly from Epic at the patient, order and encounter levels, ensuring a smooth user experience. Additionally, real-time synchronization with Epic helps provide access to the latest information, no matter where you are in the health system.
Take your solution beyond the patient record
The ability to integrate with the EMR is great, but a true enterprise solution needs to extend its reach beyond the clinical side. Patient information goes through several other systems, and constantly switching between these systems to find the right information causes major slowdowns for staff.
Fortunately, OnBase easily integrates with other systems in addition to Epic, allowing you to connect all of the solutions your organization relies on. Clinicians and staff no longer needs to waste time switching between systems, as a patient’s information can be pulled up in almost any application.
At every phase of patient care and service, the OnBase Integration for Epic provides clinicians and staff with fingertip access to clinical and financial content normally outside core HIT applications
Outside of the clinical realm, healthcare organizations also use OnBase in areas like Accounts Payable and Human Resources to speed up the administrative processes and eliminate paper. With one solution for areas across a hospital, IT has less systems to worry about and you get a better return on investment.
. As an ECM solution built on extensive Epic experience and an active community of shared customers, OnBase offers a proven solution that helps you complete the patient record, eliminate reimbursement delays and enhance business processes.
