Cerner, Holon partner on decision support automation
Holon Solutions and Cerner on Thursday announced that they’ll jointly deploy patented technology to automate delivery of patient data from Cerner’s EHR-agnostic HealtheIntent population to keep clinicians informed about relevant health information.
WHY IT MATTERS
The aim is to deliver needed contextual information directly to clinicians within their EHR workflow, according to the companies, and eliminate the need to spend time combing through numerous different data sources for information that might inform care decisions.
Holon’s CollaborNet tool can detect provider workflow activity and is able to surface relevant patient information and identify gaps in care in display that runs alongside the patient chart, according to the company, enabling faster and less intrusive delivery of decision support.
THE LARGER TREND
