Information to be shared includes patient demographics, medications, allergies and reactions, diagnosis history, lab results, procedures, immunizations and health care providers....basically most of the components of any EHR/EMR....on target to be up and going in September....BD
The hospitals announced Thursday that they have signed on to a network in which they will share electronic records of patients who seek care in their emergency departments. It seemed that that (SMRTNET) tool really fit the desire of those Oklahoma City hospitals to say ‘here is a cost-effective way to test creating this health information network,'” said Craig Jones, president of the Oklahoma Hospital Association. "After they looked at it and determined it would be cost effective to get it up and going and test it, that's why they jumped on it.”
Oklahoma City-area hospitals participating in the initial implementation of the electronic records sharing network are Edmond Medical Center, Integris Baptist Medical Center, Integris Canadian Valley Regional Hospital, Integris Southwest Medical Center, Mercy Health Center, Midwest Regional Medical Center in Midwest City, Norman Regional Health System, which includes the Moore Medical Center, Oklahoma Heart Hospital, the OU Medical Center and St. Anthony Hospital.
