Innovaccer's new alert system integrates with EHRs without adding to clinical workflow

San Francisco startup Innovaccer said it will announce a new alerting tool that integrates with EHRs at HIMSS18.
The software, dubbed InAssist, is compatible with browser-based electronic health records platforms to make health data more transparent by employing algorithms that let clinicians know when a specific patient needs attention. 
“Actionable insights like records found through multiple clinical systems, care gaps, CDI gaps, patient's previsit summary and other information is directly sent as a notification to EMR's web view without altering the EMR experience,” Innovaccer CEO Abhinav Shashank said.
Shashank said pulling that data into an EHR is more effective than two-way interoperability because there are no additional workflows and clicks to access the information, meaning physicians do not have to navigate through multiple records to find out information for every visit.
