Partnership of innovators further moves industry needle in connecting care, improving population health

CARROLLTON, Georgia, Feb. 19, 2015 — As part of a continuing commitment to connect care and improve health, Greenway Health™ has become the first provider of electronic health record (EHR) solutions to sign a strategic referral agreement with Orion Health, a global population health management company with solutions that facilitate care for tens of millions of persons worldwide each day. Greenway’s selection builds on the recent announcement by Orion Health that its healthcare-dedicated Rhapsody Integration Engine will unify Greenway Health’s growing financial transaction-processing services on a single, scalable technology platform.

“Greenway Health and Orion Health share a common passion and mission — to revolutionize the way healthcare is delivered to enable everyone to live healthier, happier and longer lives,” said Tee Green, CEO of Greenway Health. “Our vision is a smarter healthcare system where all of the relevant information is integrated and placed in the hands of those who can make a difference…when, where and how they need it. With the open nature of both Greenway and Orion Health solutions, we can continue to lead in making that a reality.”

Referring to the Greenway Health partnership, BG Jones, Orion Health vice president of Global Partner Alliances, noted “We chose Greenway Health as a strategic partner due to the flexibility and ease of use of the Greenway PrimeSUITE EHR/practice management solution and Greenway’s ability to integrate its solution with the Orion Health platform. Orion Health wants as many providers as possible connected to and exchanging health information with our private and public HIE customers. The integration with the Greenway Health solution will enable providers to utilize and exchange health information within their current workflow.”

Only slightly more than half of the nation’s eligible providers utilize an EHR that can meet federal ONC information exchange standards under meaningful use, for which Greenway Health is certified. The Orion Health/Greenway Health partnership will help providers without such a certified EHR to cost-effectively receive meaningful use funding that supports viewing and exchanging patient information to improve care coordination, efficiency and health outcomes.

“Greenway Health’s partnership with Orion Health leverages both companies’ technological strengths for exceptional benefit to our respective customers,” Greenway CEO Tee Green said. “By facilitating broad-based information exchange through the Orion Health HIE and streamlining claims data for improved financial performance through Greenway Health’s growing transaction services, we’re working together to simultaneously improve people’s clinical outcomes, payers’ costs and providers’ financial outcomes — all critical to a successful healthcare industry and a healthy society.”
