eHealth Technologies – Leading Health Care Technology Company that Advances the Delivery of Life-Altering Care

We talk a lot about the role of digital tech in healthcare – its ability to speed up diagnosis, manage conditions and improve both patient care and the way in which healthcare professionals connect with patients, for example. In these testing times, it is also becoming apparent that the role of digital has an increasingly important part to play in the way we continue to care for the elderly population. Despite lockdown easing measures, the threat from coronavirus is far from over, particularly for more vulnerable sections of society. As the younger population and those with no underlying health conditions start to move back into a pre-COVID-19 existence, however that may look, it’s important we look to ways to keep the elderly and vulnerable connected, safe and involved. Digital technology is the obvious way to achieve this.

eHealth Technologies, a leading health care technology company that advances the delivery of life-altering care, serves over 100 of the nation’s top hospitals, including 17 of the top 20 U.S. News & World Report Honor Roll Hospitals. Since opening its doors in 2006, eHealth Technologies has helped 2.2 million patients receive prompt treatment for critical health needs, like cancer and organ transplant, by retrieving, organizing, and aggregating medical information, pathology reports, and images from disparate systems into a searchable digital medical record. eHealth Technologies also enabled access to over 27 million images for providers in 2021 alone, through the company’s nationwide Health Information Exchange services.

Offering Best Health Care Technology Solutions

Record Retrieval: The nation’s top hospitals trust eHealth Connect® solutions every day to retrieve and organize referred patient medical records. They make sure you have access to the clinical information you need to create a treatment plan for your patients. eHealth Technologies brings value to many types of health care organizations. While the needs and ways that they support these organizations may be different – the common result is an enhanced ability to provide care for patients in need of medical services. eHealth Technologies acts as an extension of a hospital department clinical care team. With partners across the country, eHealth Technologies works with all types of facilities – from large academic medical facilities to specialty hospitals. The standardized request process includes having slides sent directly to the main pathology department, rather than to the requestor – who then has to get them over to the main lab. Without this improved workflow, in large health systems with a number of offsite locations, getting the slides to pathology can involve many hands and can take up to a month. Connecting different networks within a large health system or imaging center is critical as health care organization look to expand their footprint by acquiring physician groups, hospitals, outpatient care facilities, etc.

Image Exchange: Medical images are essential to deliver informed, effective, and efficient patient care. Many leading HIEs across the country have incorporated eHealth Connect Image Exchange as one of their key services to enable immediate, community-wide access to imaging studies. eHealth Technologies is firmly committed to making medical imaging truly interoperable with all other health record systems, and they led the way by pioneering image-enabled Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) in 2009. eHealth Connect® Image Exchange connects your PACS with your HIE. In a few short weeks your radiologists, cardiologists, referring physicians, and other key care providers across the community will be accessing the medical images they need from all connected locations with a single click. The images are accessible within a unified viewing environment, in full diagnostic quality, when and where needed. Specialized workflow options are available to enhance how providers can retrieve and access images, based on their specific workflow needs. eHealth Technologies bring value to many constituents in a health care community. Benefits from functional HIE image sharing have far reaching effects for providers, administrators in a health system or other health care organizations, payors, and most importantly – patients.
