Overview
Providing a Single Point of Access
Patient records are scattered across multiple, disparate systems throughout the enterprise, resulting in a system-centric view that limits the ability to accurately link patients across facilities.
Merge Enterprise Master Patient Index (EMPI) allows healthcare enterprises to aggregate patient IDs across disparate systems, providing “fire and forget” identification matching to ensure a patient-centric view. The solution facilitates a complete and accurate view that can be shared across multiple facilities - providing the framework for more comprehensive, coordinated and collaborative patient care.
Increase physician satisfaction
Improve patient care
Drive EMR adoption
Promote enterprise-wide collaboration
Merge EMPI provides a complete, image-enabled profile within a zero-client environment that helps foster collaboration across the continuum of care. The solution ensures patient information and images existing within the system will be available when needed - no matter where they are located, what format they exist in, or how large they may be.
Merge's zero-client software is dramatically easier to deploy - and more cost effective - than manually installed systems. This environment eliminates the complexity and management workload associated with PCs, freeing up staff to take care of more important matters.
Merge's 20+ years imaging solution experience within the healthcare industry combined with 15+ years master data management (MDM) domain experience provide a best-of-breed solution with the proven technology, methodology and workflow to promote collaboration throughout the healthcare enterprise.
A Robust EMPI Solution
Data Quality - Merge helps maintain data quality by leveraging existing healthcare system infrastructures to reduce duplicate records and ensure enterprise-wide patient data remains consistent.
Image-Enabled Patient Profile – Merge ensures a complete and accurate view of each patient's information - including images - eliminating the disparate "silos of information" that plague most healthcare enterprises.
Data Standards – Merge provides the foundation to ensure compliance with today's patient data mobilization standards (HIPAA, Meaningful Use, HIE).
Data Aggregation – Merge provides a single point of access for all patient information. This "reference point" helps promote collaboration across the enterprise by facilitating the sharing of patient information.

The mobilization of patient information has been a goal of the healthcare industry for years now. The ultimate "finish line" being to improve the efficiency and safety of healthcare across the United States while making it cost-effective for the entire population.
Whether a healthcare enterprise is attempting to comply with HIPAA, achieve "Meaningful Use", or get ready for a Health Information Exchange (HIE) initiative, they'll need to prove they can securely and beneficially share information between disparate healthcare facilities.
Merge EMPI provides the framework necessary to promote "Meaningful Use". Unlike imbedded EMPIs, Merge EMPI is fully interoperable, enabling healthcare enterprises to aggregate patient IDs across disparate systems to provide a patient-centric view of healthcare information.
