Today, healthcare systems increasingly involve multiple stakeholders including primary care physicians, specialists, hospitals, health plan representatives, pharmacy and other care-givers operating at different institutions.

While this movement has created a number of benefits for the patient, a new set of challenges have developed for practitioners: How can I access patient information that resides on another institution's network? How can I securely exchange patient information between different facilities? How can I be sure that referring physicians are examining my patients? How can I optimize my time and revenues?

Conservative estimates currently indicate that over 200 different EMR solutions are in use in North America today. In the United States alone, patient information resides in over 40,000 different databases spanning EMR, HIS and PACS used by over 375,000 physicians. Considering the wide range of proprietary software solutions that span today's healthcare system, a significant challenge exists for practitioners who need to collaborate on patient care across a community, where diagnostic information resides in different, isolated locations.
