PathGroup
Announces Partnership with digiChart
PathGroup, one of the largest private
providers of pathology services in the United States, announced today a unique
partnership with digiChart, one of the largest specialty-focused EHR providers
in the women's health space.
PathGroup and digiChart have partnered to develop a new
ordering interface that will give the digiChart EHR product full bi-directional
lab interface capabilities. PathGroup and digiChart clients will be able to
both place orders and receive results through their existing digiChart EHR,
creating a seamless process that will both save time in the office and simplify
the lab ordering workflow for their practice. "PathGroup is committed to
providing our clients with superior service. We have always been a leader in
utilizing technology to deliver fast, accurate results and this partnership
with digiChart adds ease of ordering for our mutual clients to that
equation," stated Dan Valenti, Senior Vice President and Chief Information
Officer at PathGroup.
"As one of the largest providers of women's health
services in the United States, PathGroup wanted an EHR partner
that showed that same commitment to women's health providers. We felt that by
working together, PathGroup and digiChart could significantly enhance and
simplify the workflow for our mutual clients, helping them ultimately better
serve their patients," stated Richard Halstead, Executive Vice President and Chief
Commercial Officer at PathGroup.
Built by OB/GYNs for OB/GYNs, digiChart's
specialty-focused EHR mimics the workflow in the OB/GYN practice, improves
clinical decision-making, and provides unique functionality to enhance patient
care. "This partnership with PathGroup significantly enhances our lab
interface capabilities, allowing our clients' offices to quickly and easily
order and receive results for all their lab testing needs, directly in their
digiChart EHR," stated Rodney Hamilton, M.D., Chief Executive Officer at
digiChart. digiChart also provides revenue cycle management tools that
integrate seamlessly with the EHR, providing faster, more accurate processing
of claims.
PathGroup and digiChart look forward to further enhancing
the partnership with future collaborations, focused on ensuring clients have
services that benefit both their practice and their patients.
