A Community of Benefits.
The success of the Connected Care network in Yakima is due to the area's critical mass of physicians who opted into the NetPracticeMedicalHub™ with the NetPracticeEHRweb™ application. Area data providers (hospitals, labs, etc.) were encouraged to interface to the NetPracticeMedicalHub with NetPracticeRESULTS™, which allows them to securely send data to almost all physicians needed. After interfacing to a substantial number of providers and labs, Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital (Memorial) and Yakima Regional Health Center also joined the network. This allowed both hospitals to exchange data through NetPracticeMedicalHub for delivery to NetPracticeEHRweb users in the Yakima Valley. With these additions, even more area physicians recognized the time savings and began using NetPracticeEHRweb in their offices.

Adoption Equals RESULTS.
In 2002 healthcare organizations in the Tri-Cities of Richland, Kennewick and Pasco, Wash., banded together to realize the community-wide benefits of electronic exchange of healthcare data. Instead of implementing separate solutions, they chose NetPracticeRESULTS, which gives the nearly 125 participating providers in the Tri-Cities access to all needed local healthcare information in one place through interfaces with a local hospital; six laboratories (hospital-based, regional and national); two radiology groups; and almost 100 area pharmacies. :: Download this Case Study ::
Improved Efficiency.
After using NetPracticeEHRweb for barely eight months at Three Rivers Family Medicine, Dr. Pattillo saw a major impact on their ability to streamline office workflow, improve communication with the practice's healthcare partners and more efficiently support patients. Of the 40-member staff, about 30 people—including the front desk, switchboard, billing, nurses, medical assistants and most of the doctors—are using different features and adopting them at different paces.

Small Practice Independence.
The only medical clinic along a 77-mile stretch of Route 2 between Sultan and Leavenworth, Sky Valley schedules 12,000 to 16,000 visits a year and began using NetPracticeEHRweb in mid-2005. Raney saw a major impact in less than six months. "It's a great tool—I can't imagine not having it. NetPracticeEHRweb gives me the ability to maintain the level of care the community expects," Raney said. He has a unique relationship with the community that rallied to help the clinic become financially independent after it was cut from a large medical group. "With the help of Noteworthy, it's possible for small private practices to survive.":: Download this Case Study ::
Increasing Productivity.
"We purchased NetPracticeEHRweb to help manage our patient records," explained Mario Garriga, administrator at the Riveside clinic. "The other product we considered at that time did not have the features that NetPracticeEHRweb does. Noteworthy brought the community to our doorstep. We didn't have to do anything—it was completely set up."
