Washington,DC -- Electronic health record company Medical
Informatics Engineering announced support for Microsoft Corp.'s
new HealthVault consumer health platform launched today at an
event in Washington, D.C. HealthVault provides consumers with
the ability to search, store and connect their health
information, simplifying management of their health and
wellness. |

"As new platforms
like HealthVault help consumers harness the power of the
Internet to take a more active role in health management, we
expect physician practice adoption of Web-based electronic
health record (EHR) solutions to accelerate," said MIE Executive
Vice President Peter Norder. "Like their patients, healthcare
providers are expressing increased interest in online EHR
solutions."
MIE built one of the first commercially viable RHIOs in the
mid-90's, and today nearly 95 percent of Northeast Indiana
healthcare providers can access this infrastructure to exchange
clinical messages. The wires and pliers effort required to build
this network drove the development of the Minimally Invasive(TM)
EHR portfolio - a fully interoperable and integrated line of
Web-based EMR, RIS/PACS and Document Management products
designed to minimize practice upheaval and help physicians
realize the maximum return on their EHR investment.
"Companies such as MIE are taking a leadership role in
developing EHR solutions for HealthVault," said Peter Neupert,
Corporate Vice President for the Health Solutions Group at
Microsoft. "The Minimally Invasive EHR portfolio from MIE helps
foster the physician adoption of healthcare IT, enabling
providers to better connect with patients and caregivers."
