Rolls Out Medicity Clinical Integration
Platform with EMR Gateway
Central Florida
Medical Associates Resolves Physician Demand for
EMR Independence by Deploying Medicity’s Clinical
Integration
Software and EMR Gateway
Salt Lake City, UT,
Medicity client Central Florida Medical Affiliates
(CFMA) announced that it has begun aggregating clinical
data from different community sources using Medicity’s
Clinical Integration Platform. The 1200-physician
association in mid-Florida receives electronic patient
data from sources in the community—including
a national laboratory, local hospitals, and an imaging
center—then redistributes the data to its membership
according to their delivery preferences. The Clinical
Integration Platform includes a web-native viewing
application accessible from any internet-connected
computer and the ability to route clinical results
directly to an office printer or fax machine.
For many CFMA members, the ability
to choose the EMR that will receive the data is crucial.
“CFMA struggled with the problem of selecting
an EMR that would be suitable for all its constituent
practices,” explains CFMA chief executive Robert
Alexander. Rather than make unpopular compromises,
this Independent Physician Association (IPA) chose
a strategy that allows practices to receive electronic
clinical data and still select their own EMR.
“This strategy leaves our members
free to choose EMR software appropriate for their
practice,” Alexander continues, “and it
gives them options for connecting to a longitudinal
record of electronic patient data garnered from provider
organizations throughout the community. None of this
data would be available to them conveniently without
the clinical integration platform Medicity has implemented
for us.”
