There are ways to improve any EHR system’s patient matching performance without disrupting any of its core functionality. Join this webinar to hear how Executive Director of Northeast Georgia's HealtheConnection, Alan Wills, tackled the patient matching problem with a simple plug-in service. 

Patient matching is at the forefront of the national Health IT conversation. Senators are urging the GAO to consider a national patient matching strategy, and the ONC and CHIME have both run patient matching competitions in search of a better approach.  It’s no secret that a new approach to patient matching is sorely needed. The average duplicate record rate within health systems is 20% and growing. And when exchanging health information between health systems, the patient matching error rate is upwards of 50%. These numbers are jarring, but more importantly they drastically impact patient safety, patient care, and business costs. Luckily, a next-generation patient matching approach exists that organizations can leverage in three simple steps to dramatically improve their patient matching. Attend this webinar to learn about this next-generation matching approach, called "Referential Matching,” and to hear about the real-world successes that three large healthcare organizations have seen with Referential Matching.
