Episode 17: Customize your clinical workflows

No two patients are the same, and no two clinicians practice medicine exactly the same way. In our latest episode, Dr. Nele Jessel walks us through ways clinicians and departments can customize workflows like order sets (including making changes at the point of care), questions asked on order entry, vaccine orders, and more.

Episode 13: Growing and reducing costs via clinically integrated networks

The Alaska Provider Network is a clinically integrated network (CIN) -- a group of independent healthcare providers who collaborate on best practices to improve cost, quality, and patient care, as well as the efficiency and wellbeing of providers. The largest benefit for the members of Alaska Provider Network is access to collective data. Clinicians can use this data practice to better identify high-risk patients and prepare the appropriate treatment. Learn more about opportunities for growth and cost reduction through clinically integrated networks in today's episode of the athenahealth podcast.
