eHealthConnect grows among organ transplant departments

eHealth Global Technologies reported that its eHealthConnect medical record retrieve and e-delivery service at more than 25 U.S. solid organ transplant departments since launching the service just 18 months ago.

After patient coordinators submit a secure online request, eHealthConnect provides medical records and imaging study collection by eHealth Global’s clinical customer support team for patients that are referred to the departments. The records and images are then digitized and made accessible to these institutions through a secure delivery method of their choice, according to the Rochester, N.Y.-based company.
