EHR vendors eClinicalWorks, Epic and Greenway Health have gone live on the service, connecting more than 490,000 providers to the technology. CVS Health supports the effort, according to a news release.
The Arlington, Va.-based Surescripts’ service is a federate query and response solution that integrated into the provider workflow through existing EHR software. The Master Patient Index of more than 230 million patients to locate and exchange records allows providers to search the national healthcare system for patient’s records, according to a news release.
“Leveraging Surescripts’ National Record Locator Service, we can offer our customers an enormous lean in search and record location capabilities,” said Carl Dvorak, president of Epic, in the news release. “We look forward to partnering with other payers, vendors and provider organizations to make it easier to find and aggregate patient medical records, regardless of where they have received care, all while ensuring the highest level of security, privacy and patient consent.”
