The new EMR system connects hospitals, emergency departments, primary and specialty outpatient services, and the health system’s home care agency into one unified medical records and finance information system to help clinicians deliver safe, efficient care, and allows patients easy access to their records through a secure patient portal called MyChart. Clinicians are able to access a patient’s record at any patient site and easily refer them to necessary specialty care through the system’s eConsult capabilities – further streamlining the process for patients, limiting wait time for appointments, and overall increasing access to expert care. Since the integration, more than 277,000 specialty care referrals have been facilitated through eConsult.

NYC Health + Hospitals is the largest public health care system in the nation serving more than a million New Yorkers annually in more than 70 patient care locations across the city’s five boroughs. A robust network of outpatient, neighborhood-based primary and specialty care centers anchors care coordination with the system’s trauma centers, nursing homes, post-acute care centers, home care agency, and MetroPlus health plan—all supported by 11 essential hospitals. Its diverse workforce of more than 42,000 employees is uniquely focused on empowering New Yorkers, without exception, to live the healthiest life possible.

Key components of the EMR system includes: 1 Giving Patients Easy Access to Personal Health Records – MyChart is the online portal that allows patients to use a computer, tablet, or smartphone to find their test results, send messages to their care team, request prescription refills, and make/reschedule appointments. 2 Improving Health Outcomes – An early alert system and real-time reports can help clinicians improve the identification of patients with sepsis, in both inpatient and emergency department settings. The EMR system also supports the hospitals’ ability to prevent medical errors. 3 Growing Revenue Collection – The new Epic revenue cycle management product is projected to help the health system capture an additional 5 percent of adjusted patient revenue – or up to $142 million in added revenue annually.
