The fundamental objective of MOSS (Misys Open Source Solutions) Health Information Exchange is the secure exchange of patient clinical data with authorized users to advance the quality, safety, and efficiency of healthcare delivery. Misys Connectâ„¢ Exchange leverages IHE technical profiles to exchange medical summary documents across various source systems. For provider organizations, communities, and state-level Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) or Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs), these HIE Services enable an XDS.b (CCD, HITSP C32/C48 specifications) document (containing patient health information) to be shared regardless of the source system.
Patient safety demands accurate identification of both patients and samples. Accurate sample identification and management processes need to begin at the patient bedside. The greater the time or distance between when a sample is drawn and when it is identified, the greater the chance for error.

To maximize asset utilization from IV pumps to portable emergency equipment, hospitals and clinics need to be able to find and rapidly deploy these assets to maintain top quality care.
