Surescripts
Secure Network for Sharing EHR

The lack of a single health system often results in disrupted information across the health care space. It is important to ensure the integrity of patient health information such as prescriptions, test results, and billings. Arlington, VA based Surescripts provides health information network by partnering with health care professionals for secure exchange of Electronic Health Records (EHR) to create a collaborative health system.

Surescripts delivers its solution through Clinical Messaging, a secure messaging service for information sharing, enabling connectivity to Surescripts network. The Surescripts Network stores all the EHR data, acting as a secure storage for important clinical information. Clinical Messaging is based on direct messaging protocol to send authenticated and secure information directly to the required recipient. “Surescripts ensures the secure flow of important health information to the right place, at the right time,” says Tom Skelton, CEO, Surescripts.

Surescripts’ National Record Locator Service allows the clients to obtain and track the history of patients. The medical professional can leverage the service to track a patient earlier visit for health checkup for avoiding any repetition of medical tests and procedures.

With Surescripts, an organization can effectively meet the MU Stage 2 eligibility criteria needed to use EHR. At Surescripts, entire focus is aimed at connecting medical professionals and providers through its integrated and technology independent neutral platform.
