2bPrecise, an Allscripts company, partners with Holston Medical Group to launch early adopter genomics and precision medicine...
November 29 2016 - 8:01AM
2bPrecise LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Allscripts Healthcare
Inc. (Allscripts) (NASDAQ:MDRX), will deploy its cloud-based
genomics and precision medicine solution at Holston Medical Group
(HMG). HMG is one of the largest multi-specialty providers in the
Southeastern United States, and a national leader in clinical
research and EHR integration. The organization will use the
clinical-genomic solution in the areas of behavioral health to
improve the quality of patient care and patient-reported outcomes.
The 2bPrecise EHR-agnostic solution will empower HMG physicians
to use genomic information along with their current Allscripts
TouchWorks® EHR workflow, simplifying and optimizing the complex
process of finding, selecting, ordering and receiving genomic
tests. Results of genomic sequencing tests will be made available
and actionable at the point of care.
“We have a significant patient population that struggles with
opioid addiction and access to specialty care is a challenge in our
area. As these patients’ primary care providers, we are actively
trying to figure out ways to improve the quality of our mental and
behavioral health care,” said Holston Medical Group CEO Dr. Scott
Fowler. “The 2bPrecise solution will empower us with genomic
information at the point of care, so we are able to treat our
patients more effectively.”
In addition to improving the workflow experience for physicians
and nurses, the 2bPrecise solution uses advanced methods in
clinical-genomic ontology and information harmonization, and will
return merged, semantically harmonized knowledge in a
machine-readable and structured format. Medical researchers can
combine genomic data with clinical and environmental information in
a manner that enables statistical analysis and pattern
detection.
“The promise of precision medicine is becoming more and more
realized as the healthcare industry continues to shift towards
value-based care. Precision Medicine can play a meaningful role in
the community and the primary care setup,” said Founder and CEO of
2bPrecise Assaf Halevy. “We look forward to partnering with Holston
Medical Group to make an immediate positive impact on the care they
provide to their patient population.”
