US-based health centre Contentnea Health has selected eClinicalWorks’ Cloud-based electronic health record (EHR) system to streamline its operations.
The health centre’s adoption of this AI-powered EHR is intended to improve the quality of patient care and efficiency across its operations, which include medical, dental, behavioural health and vision services.
Contentnea Health said it also expects its use of eClinicalWorks’ platform to optimise patient data management and expand access to healthcare for its patients.
Contentnea Health CEO Melissa Torres said: “Implementing a unified solution will help us make significant progress toward our value-based care goals, and solutions like PRISMA allow us to quickly access patient information.
“We’re particularly looking forward to implementing capabilities such as customisable reporting and analytics for improved data management, interoperability to improve care coordination with external entities, and patient engagement solutions like telehealth.”
Contentnea Health serves a predominantly uninsured patient population in North Carolina, with more than 86% of its patients lacking insurance and 38% being agricultural workers or their family members.
It operates through five centres, two mobile medical units, two school-based sites, a mobile dental unit and an on-site pharmacy.
eClinicalWorks CEO and co-founder Girish Navani said: “With our AI-driven Cloud-based EHR, we aim to reduce the burden on healthcare professionals and help them increase their focus on patient care and access.
“Contentnea Health will have access to improved data management tools and customisable reporting and analytics, which will help it better serve its patients and continue its important mission of creating healthier families and communities.”
Based in Massachusetts, eClinicalWorks offers unified AI-powered solutions tailored to the specific requirements of health centres.
In December last year, the company’s behavioural health module was adopted by the mental health non-profit agency Mental Health Cooperative (MHC) in an effort to improve practice efficiency, staff satisfaction and patient care.
