NHIN Integration Technology & Strategy Consulting
The Nationwide Health Information Network (NHIN), or Health Internet, promises to usher in an era of knowledge-centered patient care never before seen in the healthcare industry. Although it will take time to be universally implemented, Apprio is at the forefront of this exciting development. Apprio professionals help organizations interface existing and new systems to the Health Internet, as well as leverage the newly found data into actionable knowledge.

NHIN Adapter and Gateway Development Services
Specific technical implementations of the Health and Human Services Department's CONNECT open source software include the gateway and adapter components. These require customization to interface with specific commercial Electronic Health Records (EHR) applications. Apprio provides expertise in a number of the major commercial EHR applications. We have also developed public sector EHR solutions. This knowledge has enabled us to develop CONNECT adapters specific to public sector EHRs. In addition, we have the knowhow to assist organizations in the development of adapters and gateways for their commercial products.
NHIN Infrastructure Development and Testing
Development and optimization of the NHIN CONNECT infrastructure requires flexible environments. Apprio has developed a virtualized NHIN infrastructure testing environment to quickly migrate and test various versions of CONNECT. This seamlessly provides multiple environments in which to test the fluid versions of CONNECT software. Whether it is Linux, Windows, or Solaris, each environment can be quickly simulated and duplicated from template virtual development machines. Combining virtualization technology and agile open source development proves a winning combination.
Outsourced NHIN Development Environment
Every healthcare environment will eventually be connected to the Nationwide Health Information Network (NHIN). Why wait for your competition to leverage the benefits of data interoperability? From physician practice to IDS, patient to provider, leveraging the NHIN and movement of patient data allows healthcare organizations to be more efficient in the provision of patient care. Apprio can provide multiple development environments thereby minimizing ramp-up time. This will help you move quickly into this new technology.
