As Patient Information Exchange Evolves, Santé and Encore Stay Connected With Inofile Kno2

Clinical document exchange platform ensures skilled nursing facilities can send and receive patient information with hospital partners seeking meaningful use attestation

BOISE, Idaho--()--Santé/Encore, a leader in transitional rehabilitation services throughout Arizona and Washington, announced today it has implemented Inofile’s Kno2™ clinical document exchange platform to manage the evolving needs of electronic patient information exchange with key referral partners.

Like most post-acute care providers, being able to communicate efficiently with referring hospitals and healthcare systems is critical to its business. As each acute care organization adopts new electronic patient information exchange technology to attest for meaningful use, Santé/Encore faced the challenge of managing an increasing number of standalone platforms throughout each day simply to stay connected with more than 30 primary referral partners.

“Instead of relying on each partner to provide exchange tools that are often standalone, Kno2 gives us the ability to shape how we exchange information with our partners from a single, centralized and customized resource,” said Christopher Opladen, vice president, Operations, Santé/Encore. “Having more control over this critical process means we can be more responsive to our guests and our partners, from the moment a patient is transitioned to Santé through the admission process and throughout our care.”

Santé/Encore leadership discovered Kno2™ while looking for a Direct message and clinical document exchange solution that could manage all referral partner communication and meet meaningful use standards. Kno2 met all of its criteria with minimal financial and resource investment, and gave them the ability to improve relationships with referral partners through increased responsiveness and enhanced transitions of care.

“Santé/Encore is known for its commitment to quality care, from the level of attention every guest receives to being a trusted partner for some of the most esteemed healthcare organizations in the nation,” said Jon Elwell, CEO, Inofile. “Kno2 gives them the ability to evolve with and often before their partners to be even more responsive and to control how they implement Direct messaging into existing processes instead of being subject to receive-only options implemented by acute care providers.”

After successfully testing Kno2’s Direct messaging capabilities with several leading names in healthcare, Santé/Encore is exploring opportunities to leverage Kno2 technology to improve document management processes.
