Rochester Regional Health is Achieving Interoperability One Practical Byte at a Time

Published: Sept. 1, 2023, 1 p.m.

Rochester Regional Health is using a measured and practical approach to data interoperability. They have purposefully chosen NOT to turn on the firehose of interoperable data. Instead, they have focused their efforts on data that clinicians want to use, that fits their workflow, and can be seamlessly incorporated into their Epic system. They started with lab data and this integration, on its own, is having a positive impact on patient care. Healthcare IT Today sat down with Erik Jacob, Director of Interoperability at Rochester Regional Health (RRH) and Charlie Harp, CEO at Clinical Architecture to discuss how a practical, measured approach to interoperability is preferable to a tsunami of data.
