Accenx Exchange

Accenx Exchange™ is a wide-area integration platform for creating a health information exchange, delivered over the internet as a set of secure, robust, interoperability services. Using the Accenx Exchange platform, healthcare organizations can seamlessly share virtually any type of confidential patient information with physician practices. This can include direct integration with electronic medical record applications in the practice, while also providing a convenient web-based application for order entry and results viewing for practices using paper charts.

Key characteristics:

Connect to any practice. With Accenx Exchange, you can provide interoperability services to physician practices that have an electronic medical record application, as well as practices still using paper charts.

Deliver a wide variety of services to physician practices. With Accenx Exchange, you’re not limited to exchanging just laboratory orders and results with physician practices, but can exchange any type of clinical information such as radiology orders and interpretations, problem lists, or even a full continuity of care record.

Make it easy for physician practices to participate. With Accenx Exchange, you can connect to physician practices with little effort or resources required of the practice, greatly increasing the number of practices that will participate. With Accenx Exchange, practices can be connected in weeks rather than months since the infrastructure you need is already in place and our team of integration experts has experience with dozens of electronic medical record applications.

Pay only as benefits accrue. With Accenx Exchange, our service delivery model and subscription pricing means you only pay for connected practices, rather than buying expensive hardware and software that will be underutilized potentially for years.

 

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery model:

Software-as-a-Service means all of the hardware and software required to deliver our services to hospitals and physician practices is hosted remotely in Accenx’ world-class data centers. This approach provides substantial benefits to our customers:

No big up front capital investment. The Accenx Exchange infrastructure is already in-place and proven, so there are no computers or software to buy and install before the first physician practice is ever connected.

Faster deployment with less risk . The Accenx Exchange platform is already installed, running, and tested, eliminating the implementation time, risk, and uncertainty inherent in traditional solutions installed on-premises.

Cost-effective. You benefit from our ability to spread the costs of the Accenx Exchange infrastructure across many customers, so we can provide a more robust and comprehensive solution than any individual hospital or health system could afford on their own.

All maintenance and support is included. Accenx provides all maintenance, support, and upgrades so there are no extra costs and scarce information technology resources can be focused on other high-value initiatives.

Physician outreach services:

The Accenx™ Physician Outreach Services department addresses the people and process change components of creating a successful health information exchange. Our outreach managers are experts in developing deployment strategies that address the unique characteristics of each market and the objectives of our customers. These services can be invaluable in helping you maximize community adoption, in the shortest time possible, while minimizing the schedule and financial risk of your health information exchange initiative.

Strategy and Planning. Accenx outreach managers are experts in helping you develop a sound strategy for maximizing the success of your health information exchange initiative. They bring the perspective of having worked with many other hospitals and health systems, have seen what works best, and use this knowledge to help you craft a strategy most appropriate to your market and objectives.

Physician Engagement. Accenx outreach managers have the knowledge and experience to engage physicians in a constructive dialog about participating in your health information exchange. Our flexible approach means we can use this experience to educate your own outreach team, augment your team with additional staff, or assume responsibility for physician engagement on your behalf.

Connecting Physician Practices. When a physician practice is ready to participate, they don’t want to wait to get started, and they don’t want the implementation to take any longer than absolutely necessary. Our outreach managers know the right questions to ask, the key problems areas to proactively address, and how to manage expectations and the technical implementation details to ensure success and maximize the satisfaction of every physician practice.
