Ohio offers integrated electronic health records

Mednetworld.com, in partnership with the Rubicon Group, eHealth Ohio, Bostech, and TechColumbus Platform Lab, has implemented the Ohio Health Point-of-Care (HPOC) Service, which enables interoperable electronic exchange of clinical data -- including dental and vision records -- for healthcare providers.

The partnership provides clinicians and physicians with electronic access to detailed medical health records for each patient, according to the companies.

The HPOC Service offers Ohio healthcare providers complete access to patient health records, including dental and vision data. Healthcare providers using the service will have the option to participate in quality monitoring initiatives, gain improved operational performance, and find easier access to participate in clinical trials.

Payors will also benefit from the Ohio HPOC Service offering through improved economic efficiencies based on fewer errors, improved patient outcomes, increased consumer health self-accountability, and reduction of duplicate claims processing efforts, the companies noted.
