Hospitals and health systems have typically struggled with optimizing their electronic content with the most current evidence. A Knowledge Analyzer assessment will instantly pinpoint opportunities essential to decreasing care variation and improving performance in clinician practices, focusing on the most vital interventions that advance clinical and financial outcomes.

"With Zynx Health as our partner for the past five years, we have successfully integrated robust clinical decision support into our hospital's care processes. The result is an electronic system that hard-wires evidence into patient care and makes it easy for clinicians to do the right thing, leading to tangible outcomes such as significant reductions in inpatient mortality," said Jeremy Theal, chief medical information officer, North York General Hospital in Toronto, Canada. "We are pleased to be a partner in the development of this cutting-edge technology. With Knowledge Analyzer, we are able to gain further transparency into clinical practices, allowing us to fine-tune our patient care processes and meet evolving healthcare mandates."

In the current era of healthcare reform, hospitals and health systems face numerous incentives and requirements to provide high-quality care across the continuum. Knowledge Analyzer enables healthcare organizations to drive compliance for performance and quality measures related to some of the most demanding mandates including: Meaningful Use Stage 2 requirements; Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Accountable Care Organizations; and Value-Based Purchasing, among many others.

"Zynx Health is committed to innovative solutions that provide care guidance at the most vital moments of an individual's health journey," said Bertina Yen, MD, MPH, executive vice president at Zynx Health. "ZynxAnalytics is a critical step toward closing the gaps in healthcare."

A preview of Zynx Health's newest innovations will be available at HIMSS14 in Orlando, Fla., beginning February 23, 2014.
