Happy clincian benefitting from the power of data

Intelligent Interoperability

Connect. Exchange. Care.

The era of static document sharing is over.
MEDITECH is advancing the charge toward intelligent interoperability by enabling clinicians to search vast amounts of data inside and outside the EHR quickly to support better decision making. With MEDITECH's powerful suite of interoperability tools, we're pioneering an approach that leverages the power of artificial intelligence to support the wisdom and judgment of human intelligence.

Traverse Exchange

MEDITECH’s national private data exchange network removes barriers to care by embracing the open exchange of discrete patient information across all participating care networks and vendor solutions, making data accessible through intelligent and intuitive workflows.

What Traverse Exchange Enables

A foundation for next-level interoperability
by moving beyond cumbersome, static documents toward real-time FHIR-based requests for targeted data at the point of care.

Improved data usability
with powerful, intuitive, intelligent new tools for accessing, viewing, and incorporating data from outside of your organization.

More flexibility and control
over use cases and workflows, helping us to respond more rapidly to our customers' evolving needs.

The ability to surpass core requirements
by enabling more types of data to be shared between MEDITECH organizations.

An accelerated transition
from static documents to real-time FHIR-based data requests, positioning MEDITECH and its customers for the future of interoperable data exchange.

Safeguard Your Independence

Traverse Exchange helps your organization stand alone — but not apart. You remain in control of your data and your future, with the tools you need to connect to other care organizations for accessing the right data at the right time to provide the best, most efficient care possible.

Boost Clinical Outcomes

When clinicians have access to comprehensive, real-time patient data — from both inside and outside of the EHR — they can make better, more informed decisions.

Empower Patients

Patients want and need access to their medical data. A patient who is informed about and engaged in their medical care is more likely to adhere to treatment recommendations, including medication regimens.

Strengthen Organizations

Interoperability enables innovative technologies that can reduce bottlenecks and facilitate automation, freeing staff and resources to engage in more meaningful, high-touch care.

Traverse Exchange in Canada

Traverse Exchange currently connects dozens of hospitals using MEDITECH Expanse in Canada along with hundreds of long-term care sites using multiple EHRs, providing clinicians with a more holistic view of their patients' care directly within the MEDITECH EHR.

"Traverse Exchange in Canada has enabled more Ontario organizations than ever to conveniently exchange key patient health data. We are very excited about being part of this network and look forward to further analyzing how to use this solution to work collaboratively amongst a wide breadth of institutions to ensure the health and well-being of our patients."

An Open Ecosystem For Innovation

MEDITECH actively participates with leading organizations and initiatives advancing interoperability, ensuring that our customers are always ahead of the curve.

The Argonaut Project

The Argonaut Project is a private sector initiative to advance industry adoption of modern, open interoperability standards. Launched in 2014, it has rapidly developed the FHIR-based API and Core Data Services specification to enable expanded information sharing for EHRs.

FAST

The FHIR at Scale Taskforce (FAST) identifies Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) scalability gaps, defines solutions to address current barriers, and identifies needed infrastructure for scalable FHIR solutions. Launched as an ONC-convened initiative, FAST has transitioned to an HL7 FHIR Accelerator focused on the infrastructure needed to scale FHIR.

The Gravity Project

The Gravity Project is a national public collaborative that develops consensus-based data standards to improve how information is shared and used on social determinants of health (SDOH). Founded in 2017, its members advance equitable health and social care by leading the development and validation of consensus-driven interoperability standards.

360X

360X strives to define implementation guidance to enable EHR interoperability in support of patient transitions of care, particularly around referral management and closing the referral loop, with an aim to add value to patients, clinicians, office staff and overall clinical workflows.

Da Vinci

The Da Vinci Project is a private sector initiative that includes payers, providers, and EHR vendors collaborating with HL7 to improve data sharing in value-based care (VBC) arrangements using the HL7 FHIR platform.

Helios

Helios is an alliance of government, private sector and philanthropic partners who aim to use widely accepted healthcare standards to help advance public health. It was launched by HL7 and jointly supported by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT (ONC).

Direct Trust

DirectTrust is a non-profit alliance of Health Information Service Providers (HISPs), Certificate Authorities (CAs), Registration Authorities (RAs), healthcare providers, consumers/patients, and Health IT vendors working to develop, promote, and enforce rules and best practices for maintaining security and trust within the Direct Secure Messaging community.
