Portland pediatricians launch online population health management tool

An association of pediatricians in the Portland area has launched an online tool that will help pediatricians better track their patients' health across care settings.

The Children's Health Alliance's Wellcentive Advance platform will aggregate information from electronic health records, insurance claims, schools, social agencies and other sources. The goal is to give the more than 100 participating providers a more complete picture of their patients' health and wellness.

"Population health tools that bring information together and facilitate the sharing of well-coordinated care plans have the potential to create a collective impact on health outcomes," said Jay Rosenbloom, MD, pediatrician with Pediatric Associates of the Northwest in Portland and Children's Health Alliance medical director, in a news release. "Keeping everyone involved with the child's health goals and care plan improves the care experience and reduces health system duplication and inefficiency."
