This partnership introduces Apixio’s Prospective Point-of-Care solution, designed to overcome these challenges and exceed traditional EHR alerts. Here’s how it achieves this:
- AI-powered Insights: Apixio leverages its expertise in extracting valuable insights from both structured and unstructured patient data (including medications, labs, reports, and notes).
- Vim’s Bi-directional EHR Integration: Vim’s advanced technology seamlessly integrates these insights directly into the point-of-care workflow. This ensures up-to-date and accurate diagnoses are captured within the EHR, minimizing administrative burden for clinicians and promoting accurate coding.

Integrating Apixio's AI insights and predictions into Vim's EHR point-of-care connections enables clinicians to spend more time on patient care and less on administrative work,” says Sachin Patel, CEO of Apixio. “This partnership goes beyond just technology integration – it signifies a pivotal change in minimizing provider friction in prospective risk adjustment, which is key to enhancing patient outcomes.”
