21 June 2017 - 11:00PM
Cerner, a global leader in health care technology, today announced
Carolinas HealthCare System (CHS) has chosen Cerner’s
HealtheIntentSM population health management platform to coordinate
and manage care for its more than 12 million patient interactions
each year across its facilities and clinically integrated network,
Carolinas Physician Alliance (CPA). CHS will continue to use the
Cerner Millennium® integrated electronic health record (EHR) and
will also extend its remote hosting relationship with Cerner.
HealtheIntent is designed to aggregate data in near
real-time from multiple sources to create a single, comprehensive
view of an individual’s experiences across the continuum of health
and care.
“Carolinas HealthCare System is committed to delivering the most
convenient, quality care possible to the patients and communities
we serve,” said Ruth Krystopolski, senior vice president,
population health, Carolinas HealthCare System. “Our goal is to
equip our care teams with a holistic and timely picture of a
patient’s interactions throughout CHS, as well as provide system
wide insights to ultimately improve quality of care and reduce
costs for our entire patient population.”
“As the healthcare industry transitions into value-based care,
the ability to consume all data whether it originates from our own
or our affiliate’s electronic medical records, social determinants
of the patient, self-reported data or from any source becomes
invaluable,” said Craig Richardville, chief information and
analytics officer at Carolinas HealthCare System. “This allows us
to create a 360 view of each patient to offer the insight to our
care team to deliver appropriate treatment, prevention and to bend
the cost curve to make sure our services are more affordable to the
patient and increase the health of each patient and of our
communities.”
This comprehensive suite includes: HealtheEDWSM, Cerner’s
enterprise data warehouse solution; HealtheRegistriesSM, a
registries and scorecards solution designed to identify gaps in
care and recommend interventions; and HealtheCareSM, Cerner’s
community care management solution that identifies, stratifies and
prioritizes individuals for care management services.
“HealtheIntent is designed to provide caregivers with actionable
insights at the individual and enterprise levels to create
healthier communities,” said John Glaser, senior vice president,
population health, Cerner. "We are excited to collaborate with
Carolinas HealthCare System on its population health management
journey. By investing in technology that identifies opportunities
for more cost-efficient engagements, Carolinas HealthCare System
continues to demonstrate its commitment to improving outcomes for
the people it serves.”
