Under the One Virtual System Worldwide service, Epic will search for and collect patient records from clients and other organizations that use other EHRs and networks that work with the Epic clients, enabling outside clinicians to have a merged view of information on a patient from multiple provider organizations. The capability of gathering data is intended to eliminate gaps in care.

The information received from organizations that use Epic, and from those that use other companies\u2019 applications, are expected to be as easy to read as if all the information came from one organization, according to the vendor.

Further, Epic\u2019s MyChart patient portal will give patients a combined view of their healthcare records across organizations, without having to log in and out of multiple patient portals.

\u201cWe\u2019re taking interoperability from being able to \u2018view more\u2019 to being able to \u2018do more,\u2019 \u201d says Dave Fuhrmann, vice president of interoperability at Epic. About two-thirds of patients in the United States have one or more records in Epic EHRs.

Other features of the new service include:

\u2022\tClient clinicians will be able to see image thumbnails from other Epic customers, click on the thumbnail and get the image for review.

\u2022\tSchedulers referring patients to other Epic users can book the appointments in the scheduling system.

\u2022\tClinicians can send secure messages into the basket of clinicians at other organizations, which will aid the referral process.
