“With Corepoint Integration Engine’s graphical user interface, building, testing, and deploying interfaces is simple.”
Healthcare Interfacing Challenges
Seattle Radiologists needed a stable integration platform that would enable them to integrate disparate applications within their IT infrastructure and eliminate costly point-to-point connections. In addition, they required more control and better monitoring capabilities over their entire integrated environment enabling them implement interfaces within their timelines and proactively monitor and address any connection issues in the orders-to-results cycle. Reading for a large group of referring hospitals posed a need for efficient EMR and EHR connectivity with varying hospital EMR or RIS systems to eliminate manual steps and automate data exchanges.
