Key Features
Direct EHR Integration
Collective’s bi-directional EHR integration receives real-time admit, discharge, and transfer (ADT) and continuity of care (CCD) information from thousands of care entities across the nation, offering unique insight into where millions of patients are daily and which of them require help. This SMART on FHIR app removes the need for double documentation of Care Insights and Safety & Security notes being exchanged with the Collective platform. Additionally, Collective automatically pushes alerts and curated care information directly into existing workflows, offering care team members immediate insight into the patient right in front of them.
Automatic Identification and Notification of Vulnerable Individuals
Upon registration in the emergency department, Collective’s intelligent analytics automatically identify patients in need of special care, then delivers in-EHR notifications to front-line providers: high or rising patterns of ED utilization, collaborative care plans or curated histories of care, a history of sepsis, historical violence or safety concerns, and significant prescription histories.
Real-Time Care Collaboration Between Care Teams
The Collective platform lists each member of the patient’s care team, regardless of geography, with contact information for each. More importantly, each of these users are empowered to add historical care details and collaborative plans for future care to the information automatically gathered from the EHR. All of this information and more is automatically delivered back to the EHR when a patient in need of attention is identified by Collective’s analytics, and is made available on demand in the Collective portal.
Patient Segmenting and Reporting
Collective’s users are enabled to group individual patients for monitoring or future follow-up—and the platform offers live reporting of those patients’ activities across the network to help case managers and social workers care for those individuals. In addition, a regular emergency department census report is delivered, showing demographics, encounter information, and utilization metrics for all patients who have recently visited the hospital’s emergency department.
