Essential Elements of a Fully Integrated EHR
The fully integrated EHR needs to support the continuum of care …
MANAGING FOR CLINICAL

Extension of capabilities hospitals within the
“care continuum” Extension of capabilities

A Deeper Dive into the Vendor Marketplace
Focus is on patient‐centric, enterprise solutions for clinicals, access and revenue cycle,
population health, and analytics
Scope tends toward clinical enterprise/health system, affiliated physicians and
patients/families
Delivered through unified/single database platform or interoperable solutions; in‐house or
remote hosted solutions
Small group of dominant commercial vendors; new cloud‐based solutions emerging but
immature
2016 | © Kurt Salmon | 5
A Deeper Dive into the Vendor Marketplace (cont’d)
Major functional emphasis on:
Process/workflow automation to improve quality/efficiency/effectiveness
Automated information capture and delivery
Clinical activity based on evidence‐based protocols
Proactive, “intelligent” alerts to improve patient care
Analytics to support outcomes management, performance improvement, quality,
population health, etc.
Personalization (not customization) based on user needs/practice
Integration of multimedia, biomedical devices, wearables, emerging technologies
Robust “starter” systems, prepackaged content and more streamlined implementation
methodologies

Attributes: EHR Integration vs. Interoperability
Integration Attributes Interoperability Attributes
› Single vendor, single contract › Limited number of vendors, multiple contracts
› More interfaces/complexity; error queues;
› Few(er) interfaces; interfaces still required
customized
› Integration over department function › Some department function over integration
› Mostly shared information; interoperability › Shared information is incomplete, but adequate
required with affiliated providers on other EHR for many needs
› Single patient experience, single patient portal › Multiple portals
› Provides population health and analytics within › Often required for population health
the organization management across different organizations
› Single sign‐on for the user › Single sign‐on requires additional software
› Single eMPI, master files (provider, charges, etc.) › Incomplete eMPI, multiple set of master files
› Some niche vendors still required (radiation › “Best of breed” orientation with niche vendors
oncology, device integration, etc.) still required and many interfaces
› HIE and data warehouse products often included › HIE and data warehouse at additional costs
› Attestation for meaningful use is simpler › Attestation for meaningful use is more complex
2016 | © Kurt Salmon | 29
Vendor Interoperability vs. Integration Conclusions
› Cerner, Epic and MEDITECH are moving to integrated solutions vs. interoperability across
the continuum of care
› McKesson Paragon is still missing many modules requiring interfaced solutions
› Health information exchange is here to stay
Hospitals will continue to have partnerships with organizations with different EHR
vendors
Meaningful use regulations require the exchange of clinical data with HER
FHIR, CommonWell, and Sequoia projects will drive more standardization
› Future technologies
