Share the KnowledgeCenter Vision

For more than 20 years, providers of cardiovascular care have asked a simple, compelling question: why can’t I have all of my clinical and administrative data available when and where I need it?

After all, Cardiovascular Services is a high technology area of medicine, and virtually all of the critical data is electronic. And for two decades, the major IT vendors have been singing the praises of an electronic healthcare environment—electronic medical records and order entry, automated charge capture, centralized imaging networks, enterprise scheduling, and inventory control. And we all know the benefits by heart: better quality outcomes, higher revenues, lower costs.

So why do the USA’s top heart centers still cope with islands of disconnected data and inefficient manual access? There is no simple answer, but many contributing causes. First, the IT vendors sell information systems that don’t talk to systems designed by other vendors. There are hundreds of diagnostic devices churning out millions of bytes of data in proprietary formats. Then there is always a shortage of internal IT resources—it takes a great deal of time and money to tie all those systems together.

Allow us to offer a fresh perspective on an old problem. We call it the Cardiovascular KnowledgeCenter^TM. It’s more than just a new name for a common vision. It represents a novel approach to creating a truly integrated information environment supporting your heart programs long-term clinical and business goals. We cordially invite you to share the Knowledge Center vision.
