Allscripts
Merck Manuals, a comprehensive electronic medical reference, will now integrate its provider reference and patient education content into the Allscripts EHR platforms: Allscripts Sunrise, Allscripts Professional EHR and Allscripts TouchWorks EHR.

Made seamlessly accessible by an HL7-compliant Infobutton, the materials are readily available to clinicians within the Allscripts EHR workflow. The Merck programs have automatically been authorized for all Allscripts clients and they simply need to activate the programs and enroll their users to make use of the Merck content.

Clinical Decision-Making Support and Patient Education

The provider reference content contains current information on the symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for hundreds of diseases. Clinicians can share this same quality information written in language specifically for consumers. The patient education material can be electronically sent to patients through the Allscripts EHR platforms or printed out and handed to them.

By enabling clinicians to deliver understandable health information directly to consumers, Merck Manuals serves as a tool for improving patient education. Merck Manuals content for providers and patients is available in English, Spanish, and eight additional languages.

Find more information about the Merck Manuals on the Allscripts Application Store. Health IT developers can create a free Allscripts Developer Portal account to access the Allscripts Open APIs and start building or connecting new innovations for Allscripts users.
