“Both Premier and Kettering are leaders in health care and in healthcare technology,” said Dan Paoletti, chief executive of the Ohio Health Information Partnership. “They represent how the medical community and hospitals can share electronic health records to help doctors coordinate care for an individual patient. We see the Dayton region as a model leader for other large cities – they’ve jumped out in front and are leading the way.”
CliniSync staff members at The Partnership said plans have started for both Premier Health Partners and Kettering Health Network to connect electronically to other Ohio physicians, hospitals, labs and healthcare entities.
To date, 57 hospitals have joined CliniSync and two are “live” in western Ohio – St. Rita’s Hospital in Lima and Van Wert County Hospital.
