Kno2® https://www.kno2.com and Net Health® https://www.nethealth.com a provider of specialty EHR systems and advanced healthcare analytics, have announced the expansion of a partnership to provide an integrated solution for outpatient rehabilitation therapy clinics.
Through this agreement, clients using the Net Health Therapy for Clinics EHR, will be better able to seamlessly exchange patient information and improve care coordination and also meet the demands for new care models including value-based care.
In 2021, Net Health added Net Health Therapy for Clinics to their product portfolio. The product referred to as Kno2 Connected ™ EHR for physical, speech, was made available to occupational therapy providers. Post-acquisition, Net Health extended the licensing of the Kno2 Communication AP to further enhance interoperability capabilities embedded in Net Health® Therapy for Clinics.
As the industry advances into new care models including those driven by value based care, rehab therapy clinics are being asked to participate in data sharing and on-demand access to patient information at an accelerated pace. Data that needs to be communicated includes referrals, scheduling, care plans, and incremental progress notes.
One of these clients, Butte Premier Physical Therapy, a thriving outpatient physical therapy clinic in Chico, California, is utilizing Kno2’s integration with Net Health to help improve their processes, efficiencies, and outcomes. Now the company’s EHR, processes that used to take 11 steps now use minimal mouse clicks that work seamlessly into existing workflows.
Today, Net Health’s specialty EHR software and analytics are used at 23,000 healthcare facilities across the continuum of care. This includes facilities providing rehab therapy services in both acute and outpatient settings, as well as inpatient and outpatient wound care, employee health, occupational medicine, and hospice facilities.
“We are pleased that Net Health recognizes the value of integration through Kno2”, said Jon Elwell, Kno2’s CEO. “Our goal is to bring rapid, cost effective data sharing and interoperability solutions to as many providers as possible. This partnership with Net Health allows us to reach our goals for improving quality and outcomes while we create more efficiencies.”
