Nashville, Tenn.-based Ardent Health Services has partnered with software company EvidenceCare to implement the company's clinical and cost data product into Ardent's Epic EHR system.
The product, dubbed CareGauge, gives physicians access to cost and care insights within their EHR system, according to a Jan. 9 press release from EvidenceCare. It also gives physicians immediate feedback on utilization, length of stay, imaging, labs, medications, procedures and more to help them make more informed care decisions.
"At Ardent, we are working to leverage the power of data and technology to make better decisions for patients," Marty Bonick, president and CEO of Ardent, said in the press release. "This partnership with EvidenceCare is an investment in empowering our clinicians with better information to deliver the highest quality care."
