Vendor Spotlight
 
 
Clinigence integrates patient data from multiple EHR systems across practices and care settings and merges it with cost data from payers. We do not depend on EHR vendors or limited interoperability standards. Clinigence extracts data directly from all EHR systems and normalizes that data to create a complete clinical picture of each patient. No Fees from EHR vendors.

Once we get the data for you, we give you the ability to see actionable insights from that data and deliver these insights directly to providers at the point and time of care right within their EHR workflow.
