PointClickCare Emergency Department Integration
Connecting care across the healthcare continuum.
Overview
While not a traditional EDIS, PointClickCare plays a critical role in the triage and disposition of patients who frequently move between acute and post-acute settings (e.g., skilled nursing facilities). The platform provides ED staff with real-time insights and alerts, access to patient records from post-acute facilities, and tools to coordinate care transitions. This helps EDs make more informed triage and admission decisions, reduce avoidable readmissions, and ensure safer handoffs for vulnerable patient populations.
✨ Key Features
- Real-time notifications for ED visits from post-acute patients
- Access to post-acute patient records and care plans
- Care collaboration and secure messaging tools
- Network management to identify high-performing partners

🎯 Key Differentiators
