Microsoft Amalga to Catalyze TeamPraxis' Physician Information Network 

We are excited to announce that we will be deploying the Microsoft Amalga software platform to catalyze our existing physician information network, in order to create a secure open network for healthcare information sharing across the state!  We will be calling this initiative, “Community.”  Once complete, our network will provide Hawaii’s independent physicians with the same cutting-edge technology used by large hospital systems across the country.

Realizing our Founding Vision of a Physician Information Network

The Microsoft Amalga application will bring to reality our founding vision of building an integrated physician information network to connect physicians across the state, (especially in underserved areas).  We have always believed that independent physicians are key players in our healthcare delivery system, and so we have meticulously built our network from the ground up over the past twenty years, physician by physician. 

The Microsoft Amalga technology will now take our network to the next level by enabling physicians to securely share patient data with each other, providing tremendous benefits in the coordination of patient care, as well as laying the groundwork for secure physician-to-patient communication.  Additionally, our network will be able to more easily integrate with hospitals, other ancillary service providers (i.e., labs, radiology, etc), and emerging health information exchanges.  We will also be able to integrate our Clinical Quality Solution across our network, thereby providing clinical decision support to help physicians be better equipped for emerging pay-for-quality initiatives locally and nationally.

Continuing to Empower Independent Physicians in the Fast-Changing Healthcare Climate
