2023-01-31T04:35:21-06:00

As CommonWell continues to expand the services and reach of its interoperability network, the concept of a real person at the heart of different representations of a patient’s healthcare across different systems remains core to CommonWell’s mission to create a vendor-neutral platform that breaks down the technological and process barriers that currently inhibit effective health data exchange. From the onset of discussions within the CommonWell Health Alliance there was a clear requirement to conceptually connect all the instances of care to meet the goal of providing a complete picture of an individual’s healthcare in a timely fashion wherever they received care.

2023-01-31T04:35:24-06:00

Check our Executive Director Jitin Asnaani’s video interview with Paul Barr of Hospitals & Health Networks from HIMSS16. In the video, Asnaani discusses progress made with regard to national deployment of CommonWell cross-vendor interoperability services both in numbers—4,400 sites live nationwide and growing weekly—and care settings—members announced in February plans to deploy to post-acute care setting. “It’s really our opening thrust of a long deployment cycle as we continue adding thousands more sites over the coming years. We started out this past year and really made a hard push, 4,400 sites is something to be very happy about, and we’re not done yet.” To watch the video and learn about the focus of CommonWell in our fourth year and beyond, visit HHNmag.com.

Faces of CommonWell 2015

2023-01-31T04:35:31-06:00

Since our inception in 2013, CommonWell has focused on putting a face to our mission – from our fictitious cancer patient Susan taking us on the journey of how CommonWell works to our member company representatives sharing their view of why nationwide interoperability is a game changer. When we released our first Faces of CommonWell video in June 2013, we had 5 Founding Members and a vision. Today, we have 29 member companies and real world interoperability services live at provider sites across the nation. Our members’ commitment to action will soon contribute to improved health care delivery and outcomes. Check out our newest Faces of CommonWell video below.

#GotInterop – Let CommonWell Health Alliance know!

2023-01-31T04:35:32-06:00

It’s the third and final day for the Exhibition at HIMSS15. For those of you at the conference, this probably means your feet are aching, your body would like a bit more sleep and your mind is racing to figure out how you are going to make it to all the booths you have yet to see before the show ends. We at CommonWell don’t look at today as our final day to showcase our services and efforts. We look at HIMSS as a starting point, taking away the ideas we have heard, the feedback received and the excitement felt for what we are doing. We also look at it as a way to make new friends and continue to keep connected throughout the year. That is one reason why [...]
