Kryptiq EMR technology selected by Capital Region Healthcare

Capital Region Health Care (CRHC) has deployed Kryptiq Corp.'s clinical messaging applications for the electronic transfer of information between CRHC's seven electronic medical record (EMR) servers and to outside entities.

The Concord, N.H.-based CRHC provides EMR implementation and support services for several primary care and multi-specialty practices, each of which uses GE Medical Systems Logician ambulatory EMR.

CRHC providers will have access to Kryptiq's ClinicalMessenger, a secure messaging technology that integrates with EMRs to transmit electronic patient records throughout CRHC's network. CRHC includes two acute-care hospitals licensed for 357 beds, two visiting nurse associations with more than 160,000 visits annually, a county-wide community mental health system, a 70-bed assisted living facility and 14 primary care clinics.
