Regardless of the EHR a provider uses, MedAllies’ National Direct Network facilitates the exchange of authenticated personal health information between more than 4,500 healthcare organizations and 60,000 Direct Network users. Merge’s iConnect Network Services, a vendor-neutral referral management platform, will enable MedAllies’ users to implement an electronic solution for sending and receiving medical imaging study orders.
“The importance of this collaboration cannot be overstated,” A. John Blair, III, MD, MedAllies CEO, said in a statement. “When it comes to improving healthcare, coordinating care and lowering costs, a missing critical component has been interoperability among imaging providers and referring physicians. By working with Merge, MedAllies will be advancing interoperability on a grand scale.”
