ALERT: Axolotl Secures Public Sector HIE Deal
January 20, 2010
Axolotl Corporation and Memorial Healthcare System of Florida have entered into an agreement, as a part of which, the former will deliver its Elysium® Exchange suite of solutions to help streamline the exchange of information among Memorial physicians.
Memorial Healthcare System, one of the largest public hospitals in the US, serves across Broward County through its network of facilities including Memorial Hospital West, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital, Memorial Hospital Pembroke, Memorial Hospital Miramar, Memorial Manor, Memorial Regional Hospital and Memorial Regional Hospital South.
With the Elysium® solutions in place, Memorial Healthcare hopes to establish clinical interoperability with physician practices, by allowing the hospital to network health data with electronic medical records (EMR) deployed at the disparate physician practices. This will empower physicians and medical staff with the ability to securely access and exchange data among themselves. Axolotl’s President Glenn Keet hopes that with this implementation, the hospital will be able to also meet the ‘meaningful use’ criteria.
Used by more than 25,000 physicians and 80,000 healthcare professionals, Elysium Exchange provides tools to electronically communicate and transfer radiology reports, laboratory results, sharing referrals, and other patient information between disparate EMRs. Through the Elysium Exchange solutions, Axolotl also supports over 200 hospitals, and 18 regional and 3 statewide HIEs. Bronx Regional Health Information Organization (BronxRHIO) is one of the recent clients to select the Elysium Exchange solution.
Enhancing its HIE solution portfolio, the vendor recently announced the addition of Elysium Image Exchange, a medical image sharing technology from its partner, eHealth Global Technologies. Integrated with the Elysium® Exchange suite, the new solution is expected to help streamline image sharing between care facilities within a HIE organization.
