CHICAGO, July 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Allscripts (NASDAQ: MDRX) announced today that Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) will deploy Allscripts dbMotion interoperability and population health analytics solutions, and extend its use of its population-health-enabled Allscripts Sunrise platform electronic health record (EHR).

MSK will utilize Allscripts Sunrise and leverage Allscripts dbMotion to normalize and harmonize data across settings and systems, including non-Allscripts technologies, to ensure transitions of care are accurate and secure. Allscripts dbMotion helps improve care coordination by supporting clinicians' desire to share data throughout their referral networks.

MSK will also deploy Allscripts dbMotion Collaborate web-based functionality that organizes and displays actionable patient information—such as test results—consistent with clinicians' preferences. It provides high-level visibility into patient information across the organization, delivering key data, analytics and insights.

"MSK is entering a new era where interoperability and connectivity are paramount," said Patricia Skarulis, Senior Vice President, Information Systems and Chief Information Officer at MSK. "Allscripts is helping us meet new challenges in communicating with outside organizations including referring doctors."

Allscripts dbMotion aggregates and harmonizes patient information from disparate clinical systems and delivers a comprehensive view of the patient record into the provider's native workflow. Allscripts dbMotion can contribute to improved clinical decisions in real time and at the point of care.

Allscripts Sunrise platform provides acute Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE), integrated pharmacy, knowledge-based medication administration and other innovative features.  In addition, Allscripts Sunrise Ambulatory Care™, Allscripts Sunrise Surgical Care™ and Allscripts Sunrise Emergency Care™ augment Allscripts Sunrise acute care to effectively manage the complex medical needs of patients who require treatment in multiple settings, including outpatient and critical care settings.
