The benefits of better integration between healthcare providers are clear.

Background:

In today’s clinical environment, there is a disconnect between hospitals and their affiliated physician groups. Vital patient information such as lab results, pathology and radiology reports, discharge summaries, and operative notes are generally being transmitted to physicians via fax, courier or made available online through web portals.

VLink Solution

VLink addresses the needs of the healthcare community and solves its information management problems by providing a simple, secure, and cost effective method for connecting physicians and hospitals. Traditional solutions for interoperability; such as longitudinal EHR’s, common middleware applications, and web portals, have proven either to be too expensive or leave too many questions of data ownership and security to gain wide acceptance.

VLink is unique in its technology and simple approach. VLink is based on a number of community open standards, builds upon industry-standard Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), and adds adapters and management infrastructure to connect health information systems quickly and flexibly. This innovative platform allows VLink to solve the issue of interoperability for a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions while increasing the security and control of information.
