For busy healthcare providers, EHR integration is vital to creating efficient workflows and reducing administrative burden. Toggling between systems to get a complete picture of patient medical records is time-consuming, tedious, and prone to inaccurate documentation. Not to mention, time spent manually maintaining organized information cuts into your practice efficiency, patient experience, and overall ability to deliver quality care.
Electronic health records (EHRs) give providers a centralized and secure platform to efficiently store sensitive patient data and document patient medical history for accurate and detailed reporting without adding to healthcare professionals’ administrative workflow. This makes EHR integration a critical consideration for practices and healthcare systems when choosing new practice management software or health assessment platforms such as those used for cognitive testing.
That’s why Creyos is built to integrate with your existing systems. It works with your EHR to centralize assessment data, enabling high-quality, secure documentation, reducing administrative work, and supporting data-backed clinical decisions by delivering insights at the point of care.
Top 5 Benefits of Creyos EHR Integration
EHR integration can help providers improve clinical workflows by reducing the burden of administrative tasks and allowing more time to be put toward patient care. Having cognitive assessment results populated in your EHR system is beneficial for both your practice and your patients.
1. Time-Saving Workflows
With patient details all in one place, clinical efficiency improves. Medical professionals can streamline the data entry processes; instead of manually recording the outcomes of cognitive tasks or behavioral health measures, reports automatically appear as part of patient medical records. By synchronizing the two systems, time and energy are freed up for your team to focus on more important tasks, such as liaising with patients and maintaining appointment calendars.
2. Lower Risk of Human Error
By integrating Creyos with your EHR system, critical patient health information and data related to their cognitive functioning are seamlessly synced, eliminating the possibility of transcription mistakes, data entry errors, or incomplete patient medical records—common occurrences when information is manually transferred between different systems. Accurate and up-to-date assessment results are accessible in real time, which not only enhances the quality of patient care but also improves patient safety by minimizing the chances of costly and potentially harmful mistakes.
3. More Confident Clinical Decision-Making
Having cognitive test results readily accessible within your EHR system empowers healthcare providers with a comprehensive view of your patient's health history. This easy-to-access, centralized information allows for quicker and better decision-making, enabling clinicians to promptly identify trends or meaningful changes in cognitive function and make timely adjustments to treatment plans or referrals to specialists. This streamlined system integration fosters more efficient, patient-centered care by providing valuable insights at your fingertips.
4. Integrated and Centralized Data
Creyos is designed to fit into existing clinical workflows by ensuring cognitive assessment data is located in the right place. Creyos integrates with your EHR so cognitive assessment data is captured within a single, complete patient profile, giving care teams cognitive insights to support confident care decisions at the point of care.
5. Security and Compliance
Creyos is both HIPAA and SOC 2 compliant, prioritizing privacy to protect your patients' data at all times. FHIR API endpoints or HL7 messaging standards also work to ensure all information exchanges are both fast, reliable, and secure.
Patient Data—All in One Place
With the Creyos EHR integration, busy healthcare practices can spend less time on paperwork and more time with patients, helping to reduce administrative burden while improving patient outcomes. Syncing patient reports with your existing health systems, including your EHR platform, means you can save time, improve clinical decision-making, and reduce the risks associated with manual data entry.
