Clinical Interoperability Overview

The Surescripts Network for Clinical Interoperability

As the healthcare delivery system changes rapidly to address new demands and challenges, a better approach to clinical information exchange is needed to effectively connect care providers and healthcare organizations across all technology platforms.

The Surescripts network enables information exchange across care providers, health systems, and EHR platforms-increasing efficiency, helping to improve care coordination and patient outcomes, and reducing costs:

• The Surescripts Directory helps expand your reach to care providers locally and nationally, which simplifies Bi-directional electronic information exchange of health information, aligned with Meaningful Use C-CDA, CCD and more
• Serving as an HIE and HISP gateway for our network participants, Surescripts connects to many HIEs and HISPs (e.g., Illinois, Michigan, Florida, Maryland and Maine), supports HISP-to-HISP agreements with Direct-enabled EHRs, and can facilitate connections with others
• Guaranteed Delivery allows clinical information to reach providers across transitions in care and collaboration, for off-network care providers and affiliates not electronically enabled
• Supporting additional clinical information exchange across healthcare broadly, including connections to retail pharmacies, retail medical clinics, mail order pharmacies, and PBMs
