Health Gorilla has scored a deal with Scripps Health, a nonprofit regional integrated health system based in San Diego, California, to provide access to imaging and lab data from its facilities to community physicians and their patients.

The company’s HIPAA-compliant and Meaningful Use 2-certified Clinical Network is already used by thousands of doctors to automate their practices through instant electronic lab and medical imaging orders, referrals, and test results, including Scripps affiliated medical groups Scripps Mercy Physician Partners and Mercy Physicians Medical Group (MPMG).

Under the agreement, the Health Gorilla Clinical Network will allow independent doctors and nurses to access Scripps’ stored patient data to avoid repeat tests, lower costs, and help eliminate errors in care. The solution will allow ambulatory personnel and hospital doctors, along with Scripps’ physician medical groups and unaffiliated doctor’s practices and labs to connect in one place, where they can uniformly view patient records, place electronic orders, and access and share results.

Health Gorilla’s Clinical Network connects thousands of doctors and clinicians with over 9,000 diagnostic labs, 35,000 radiology centers, and a host of other facilities.“Health Gorilla has been working for years to close communications gaps and interoperability issues across the medical community,” said Steve Yaskin, CEO of Health Gorilla. “This is critical across the board, but especially for ambulatory and hospital care, where the fast pace truly demands seamless, automated communications. We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to work with such a well-respected integrated health care system as Scripps.”

Health Gorilla’s Clinical Network connects thousands of doctors and clinicians with over 9,000 diagnostic labs, 35,000 radiology centers, and a host of other facilities including physical therapy, sleep and surgical centers, skilled nursing and long-term care facilities, and more. Health Gorilla offers electronic ordering, referrals, and results, consolidates patient records in one place to offer a comprehensive health history, and allows seamless and secure sharing of information across a patient’s care circle.

The solution is available both on desktops and mobile devices, as long as they run Android or iOS platforms.
