Making Healthcare Accessible to All

Results

Open Door uses eClinicalWorks to establish provider panels and ensure that patients are consistently seen by their primary care provider; clinical performance metrics are maintained for populations of patients with chronic diseases; clinical decision support at the point of care is used by all care teams; patient registries are used for managing populations; e-prescribing, electronic referrals, and electronic care planning tools are used to improve the safety and speed of care.

Clinical and Administrative Improvements:

• Patient charts are accessible from all locations. There is no more moving paper charts from location to location.
• Easy and secure access to critical patient information.
• Reporting tools identify high-risk patients and patients with chronic illnesses who can benefit from additional care and counseling.
• Tracks orders and results for all laboratory and diagnostic imaging.
• Bidirectional lab interfaces improve timeliness of reporting results to clinicians and patients.
• Improved patient safety is realized due to e-Prescribing, allergy/interaction checking, and use of telephone encounters to document patient requests for refills of medication.
• Patient records are available over a secure network, which improves coordination of care after hours, on call, during hospital rounds, or at other times when the provider is not at the practice site but needs to make medical judgments.
