These companies join athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, NextGen Healthcare and Surescripts as Carequality adopters.
The Carequality Interoperability Framework includes legal terms, policy requirements, technical specifications and governance processes designed to help healthcare achieve interoperability.
"The diversity of organizations — from HIE to consumer access, large to small — adopting the Carequality Framework really highlights our vision for an interoperability framework that unites the entire healthcare continuum," explained Dave Cassel, director of Carequality. "Enabling patients and providers to access health records from the diverse participants in the Carequality ecosystem is a major step forward, not only for the healthcare experience but also for patient empowerment."
