When the medical community encountered the Zika virus outbreak in 2015, IMO was ready to help with new terminology to document the disease. We learned some lessons in that situation – ones that are helping guide our response to the current novel coronavirus pandemic. IMO VP of Global Clinical Services, Steven Rube, MD, explains our past and current responses to these crises, and talks about how what we learned in 2015 is informing our efforts now.
In the midst of the novel coronavirus pandemic, updates to COVID-19 coding guidelines, terms, and names are important for patient care, but challenging to manage. IMO’s clinical, product, and coding experts break down how COVID-19 terms have been developed and explain how IMO can help providers by taking terminology concerns off of their plates.
Increased interoperability – specifically, the sharing of electronic health data between systems – can be an enormous help for clinicians. But as new federal rules are put into action, clinicians may soon be facing too much of a good thing. Download our latest white paper for more on the coming “data tsunami.”
IMO is committed to helping healthcare providers with workflow and cohort management needs related to the COVID-19 pandemic. That’s why we created IMO Precision COVID-19 Sets, available now to IMO customers, completely free of charge.
Many companies are navigating new ways of working during the COVID-19 outbreak. Our CEO, Ann Barnes, shares IMO’s strategy for keeping our employees and clients supported during this unprecedented time.
In medicine, value sets are key to identifying populations of interest. But without knowing who builds them – and how – it can be hard to trust their accuracy. Learn how IMO is taking on value sets – from scope definition, to architecture, to ongoing maintenance.
With the unprecedented global outbreak of COVID-19, the novel coronavirus, it’s crucial that we all do our part to help. At IMO, that means ensuring clinicians can easily identify and monitor COVID-19 patients using the most up-to-date terms for EHR documentation. IMO’s CEO Ann Barnes describes our new offerings, available free of charge on March 26.
Highly anticipated rules about interoperability, information sharing, and patient access to medical data were finalized and released today. The rules will impact many players in the health IT industry, including IMO.
In light of the cancellation of the annual Health Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) meeting, IMO today announced business updates that would have been highlighted at the event.
Sometimes close enough is good enough, but for those capturing and documenting high-risk patient diagnoses in the EHR, added specificity is key.
Some say that IMO is health IT’s best-kept secret. We think it’s time that all changed.
