A recent Gartner's report states that patient engagement remains a top priority for nearly three quarters of responding physicians and eight in 10 are working on a way to make personal health records easier to access.Data aggregated from across the continuum of care is, in fact, key to enabling healthcare providers and their care teams to manage populations of patients healthcare information by reducing human workload and fostering enhanced patient engagement.
