BLOOMINGTON, Minn., May 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MatrixCare, a leading global technology provider in post-acute care, has partnered with Health Gorilla, the nation’s only dual-designated Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN) and Qualified Health Information Organization (QHIO). This strategic alliance enables MatrixCare to seamlessly access, exchange, and integrate comprehensive clinical data into its Electronic Health Record (EHR) platform.
Medical providers need an easy and secure way to exchange data electronically to care for their patients. By joining Health Gorilla's national network, MatrixCare providers gain actionable insights into their patients' medical histories, empowering them to make informed treatment decisions, enhance care coordination, and streamline administrative processes.
“As we press forward with innovation, interoperability stands as the bedrock of our solutions,” states Bharat Monteiro, General Manager, Facilities at MatrixCare. “Our collaboration with Health Gorilla empowers us to expedite our customers’ enhancement of operational efficiency, enabling them to deliver unparalleled patient care.”
Through this partnership, MatrixCare gains access to comprehensive clinical data and facilitates bi-directional data exchanges across Health Gorilla’s extensive national network. Leveraging Health Gorilla's federally designated QHIN, MatrixCare is the first post-acute EHR to tap into the Trusted Exchange Framework and Common Agreement (TEFCA) and launch the first EHR-to EHR TEFCA transactions. This connectivity enables access to a vast network encompassing over 220 million patients, 750 thousand clinicians, and over 147 thousand care sites nationwide.
“We’re thrilled to incorporate an innovative organization like MatrixCare into our QHIN,” said Steve Yaskin, CEO and Co-founder of Health Gorilla. “MatrixCare has a long history of providing cutting-edge solutions to the post-acute and home health markets, and its commitment to enhancing interoperability and improving patient outcomes aligns perfectly with our mission at Health Gorilla. Together, we look forward to revolutionizing how health information is exchanged and accessed, ultimately benefiting patients and providers alike.”
MatrixCare is continuously evolving its solutions through partnerships with innovative healthcare technology leaders. With the addition of Health Gorilla, MatrixCare has grown its partner ecosystem to include more than 15,000 partners spanning our provider ecosystem solution suite.
