ORBIT® PHR is a comprehensive solution from IGI which securely connects healthcare trading partners regardless of legacy systems or the data formats in use. Modular in design, ORBIT® PHR is a completely secure solution of intelligent, interlocking rules and translation engines that facilitate the transfer of data across multiple layers and between associated partners. The ORBIT® PHR network includes all participating entities such as: Payers, Labs, PBM’s, IDN’s etc. connected over a secure portal including a searchable Master Patient Index (MPI) Database, Health Routing Engine and Translation. To round out our product, IGI has integrated partner solutions from Intel and Viocare Technologies. Based on the needs and size of the opportunity, IGI will replace our backend systems with the Intel® SOA Expressway for Healthcare. Our partnership with Intel as a Certified ISV Portal vendor provides our customers with the highest performance XML processing engine.
The following workflow overviews the conceptual model of IGI’s ORBIT® PHR solution:
The provider can request patient historical or current information for:
- Medical results and X-rays from Labs
- Medical prescriptions
- Diagnosis and procedures from medical claims
- Patients’ entire electronic health record available in the network
The PHR information can also be provided, without the PHI fields, to research firms, employers, government, and approved agencies to analyze the health of a specific city, state, geographic region, or the entire country. The data can be used to determine consumer health and wellness. Health patterns and risks can be identified and analyzed, and care plans can be derived for the benefit of all patients, thereby providing higher quality care at point of service and reducing total spend on healthcare. This also helps eliminate healthcare fraud and provides a true consumer-driven healthcare model.
