Allscripts Community Solutions

To achieve the vision of a connected community, widely disparate ambulatory, non ambulatory, acute and post acute systems must share patient data seamlessly. Allscripts Community Solutions enable hospitals and physician groups to practice collaborative, coordinated care with other healthcare organizations and facilities in their communities by linking disconnected Electronic Health Records (EHRs) so information can be shared across a broad network of providers and care settings.

Allscripts offers several components necessary to build a truly Connected Community.
