Overview
Accurately identifying patients is a pre-requisite of meaningful health information sharing
IBM® Initiate® Patient Hub for MDM accurately matches and links patient identities to create a single view for use by EMRs, clinical portals, administrative applications & analytics. How can you be patient-centric when you don’t know who your patients are? An EMPI helps achieve the following goals:
Recognize the patient at all points of service
Improve quality of care by accurately locating and linking demographic information
Govern information and patient privacy preferences across organizational boundaries with distributed data stewardship capabilities for workflow and a user interface to manage tasks
Improve clinician satisfaction by providing more trusted and accurate patient identification at the point of service
Accelerate time to value and reduce total cost of ownership by implementing a proven EMPI with demonstrated integration capabilities
Create a foundation for growth with a scalable master data management solution
Quickly create applications powered by patient data that can be used to solve standalone problems or can be embedded into existing applications
