OceanMD and Intrahealth strike up partnership
September 4, 2024
VANCOUVER and TORONTO – OceanMD, a subsidiary of WELL Health Technologies, and Intrahealth Solutions, a part of HEALWELL AI Inc., have entered into a strategic partnership. The partnership enables HEALWELL’s Intrahealth to integrate with OceanMD’s eReferral system and make it available to healthcare facilities across Intrahealth’s extensive network, benefiting both providers and patients with more efficient and connected healthcare services.
Intrahealth’s integration with OceanMD will enable healthcare providers to send, receive, and manage eReferrals directly from their EMR, simplifying their workflows and improving patient care.
OceanMD’s platform now handles over 120,000 eReferrals and eConsults monthly and has been pivotal in securing contracts with Ontario, British Columbia, and Nova Scotia for provincial deployments of eReferrals, eOrders, and eConsult requests. Building on OceanMD’s leadership in driving standards-based interoperability, this integration will allow Intrahealth to help streamline healthcare processes, reduce administrative burdens, enhance provider efficiency, and offer patients better access to their health data.
Dorian Prior (pictured left), president of Intrahealth, commented, “Our partnership with OceanMD is a testament to our commitment to excellence in healthcare. By combining our expertise with OceanMD’s innovative eReferral system, we are poised to transform the healthcare landscape, making it both more connected and patient-centric.”
Jeff Kavanagh (pictured right), CEO of OceanMD, commented, “We are excited to partner with Intrahealth and further extend the reach of our industry leading eReferral system to an enterprise EMR such as Intrahealth that is serving a number of important critical needs for our healthcare ecosystem and public sector at large. This collaboration underscores our shared commitment to enhancing the efficiency and accessibility of healthcare services through standards-based interoperability. Together, we are setting a new standard for healthcare efficiency and patient engagement, while helping to ensure patients receive timely and coordinated care.”
This initiative reflects the dedication of WELL Health and HEALWELL in advancing healthcare through intelligent solutions and represents a significant step in providing seamless healthcare experiences.
