FHIR-Side Chat: Unite Us × MEDITECH on FHIR, EHR Integration & Community Care

Описание: Join us for a “FHIR-side Chat” where we sit down with innovators across the healthcare ecosystem to explore how interoperability, EHR integration, and community collaboration are powering more connected, person-centered care.

MEDITECH, a leading EHR provider, is helping organizations deliver on population health goals by embedding Unite Us directly into its Expanse EHR. This integration enables providers to easily identify non-medical needs and connect patients to community resources—right within their clinical workflows.

You’ll also hear from Citizens Memorial Hospital, the first health system to adopt this integration, as they share early lessons and real-world outcomes from supporting whole-person care across their community.

🔹 Why MEDITECH and Citizens Memorial Hospital partnered with Unite Us to advance whole-person care.
🔹 How providers can address drivers of health within the EHR
🔹 The role of FHIR-based interoperability in bridging the gap between clinical and community care
🔹 How this model is laying the groundwork for hospitals nationwide
