World’s Largest HIE: Orion Health to Help Saudi Arabia to Revolutionize Care Delivery
In what is considered a revolution in care delivery, Orion Health will build the world's largest health information exchange (HIE) for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The HIE will take data feeds from more than 5,000 governmental and private healthcare providers to create a single, holistic view of every single patient's medical and care information. At launch, the exchange will cover 32 million people, and will have the capacity to grow to well over 50 million.
"Globally, there are too many clinicians operating without all the details regarding medications, lab results, diagnoses and medical history,” said Ian McCrae, Orion Health founder and CEO. “As a result, patient health is often compromised and in some situations with serious consequences. Saudi Arabia is picking another path. Heading into a post-pandemic world, Saudi Arabia is the first country to revolutionize the delivery of healthcare for their citizens through technology and many others will follow."
Orion Health will also create an ecosystem of data that enables the Kingdom to apply machine learning and AI to analyze and better manage large-scale disease outbreaks, pandemics and ongoing chronic conditions such as diabetes.
According to this recent Healthcare IT News article, Orion Health delivered the first HIE platform in the Middle East. This latest contract with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is an extension of the company’s growth in the region.
Ideal for large-scale integrations, the RosettaHealth HealthBus platform enables one connection to connect with everyone. The solution opens up a world of possibility to hospitals, urgent and post-acute care systems, and ambulatory practices for use with any health information tools, not just EHRs approved components. It’s also easier to share clinical information with any system in any community – with one connection per system.
