Care for underinsured and uninsured patient populations is generally provided by a network of hospital emergency rooms, community-based clinics and other safety net care providers. While electronic health record solutions can improve coordination of care and clinical outcomes while reducing costs and service duplication, EHR implementation faces a variety of hurdles in these settings.

The MIE Safety Net Health solution helps care providers overcome obstacles in the design and implementation of EHR systems by:

• Configuring tailored EHR solutions for the unique workflow needs and practice environments of each safety net care provider. Unlike vendors that require each provider to use a cookie-cutter EHR system, MIE recognizes that variables ranging from transitory volunteer staff to budget constraints necessitate a flexible approach. Each provider can utilize the EHR modules best suited to their situation – including EMR, document management and PACS functionality.
• Creating a central data repository that allows care providers to share and access important patient health information based on defined rules and permission levels.
• Utilizing a Web-based architecture that provides anytime/anywhere access to patient records and requires little or no additional investment in hardware, database licenses or IT support.
