Healthcare Scene sat down with Scott Stuewe, Director at Cerner Network and Daniel Cane, CEO & Co-Founder at Modernizing Medicine, where we talked about Cerner’s participation in CommonWell and Modernizing Medicine’s announcement to join CommonWell. This was a great opportunity to learn more about the progress CommonWell has made.
During our discussion, we talk about where CommonWell is today and where it’s heading in the future. Plus, we look at some of the use cases where CommonWell works today and where they haven’t yet build out that capability. We also talk about how the CommonWell member companies are working together to make healthcare interoperability a reality. Plus, we talk a bit about the array of interoperability solutions that will be needed beyond CommonWell. Finally, we look at where healthcare interoperability is headed.
In the “After Party” video we continued our conversation with Scott and Daniel where we talked about the governance structure for CommonWell and how it made decisions. We also talked about the various healthcare standards that are available and where we’re at in the development of those standards. Plus, we talk about the potential business model for EHR vendors involved in CommonWell. Scott and Daniel finish off by talking about what we really need to know about CommonWell and where it’s heading.
CommonWell is a big part of many large EHR vendors interoperability plans. Being familiar with what they’re doing is going to be important to understand how healthcare data sharing will or won’t happen in the future.
