Charleston Area Medical Center (CAMC) needed a way to update the hospital's master patient index with information from ambulatory medical locations. Moving patient registration data between these two systems would allow emergency department doctors to determine if patients being treated at the hospital had recently been seen at one of the clinics. This is particularly important when dealing with those in fragile categories, such as cancer patients.
In this case study, you’ll learn how even disparate systems were no challenge to Boston WorkStation. CAMC has closed the information gap, and is experiencing higher accuracy in all registrations.
