MiHIN Expands Its Network Throughout the State via Partnership with PointClickCare
As part of the partnership, MiHIN will be able to offer PointClickCare’s Emergency Department Optimization (EDO) platform to hospitals across the state of Michigan, enabling emergency departments to access real‐time insights, ranging from prior patient encounters histories to interorganizational patient care plans, to support high‐risk patients across the healthcare continuum. The tool will be particularly beneficial to those clinicians delivering care to increasingly complex and vulnerable patient cohorts such as expectant mothers, those experiencing health inequities, those that are being transitioned from post-acute facilities, and those impacted by the opioid crisis.
MiHIN and PointClickCare are calling upon hospitals in Michigan who are interested in accelerating the responsive, HIE-enabled capabilities of their Emergency Departments (ED) to provide feedback and input to the broader network. Providers and groups using the statewide digital infrastructure are also encouraged to collaborate to explore a new Use Case with MiHIN, termed Alert and Query, that looks to harness alert notifications to trigger a query to a long-term care facility in order to gather and present the most actionable prior information to the ED.
The MiHIN maintenance window is our standard recurring ‘reserved’ time to implement production changes/perform maintenance on our live systems. We standardly hold this every Thursday from 5:30-10:30PM EST so our customers know when to expect maintenance/downtime if we have to perform any that week. If you would like to be added to the MiHIN Maintenance Window Email Distribution list, please email help@mihin.org with this request.
Looking ahead at the Week of Thanksgiving, our maintenance window will occur 11/22 instead of 11/24 and only include critical changes. Think of critical changes as ‘must have’ vs ‘nice to have’. If there’s a significant business deadline with funding attached that depends on the change, or the change is required to resolve a break/fix issue with a production service, we would typically consider it critical. Things we will delay are new customer onboardings, incremental version updates, standard patches, new features, etc. that can wait.
Please note that effective October 1st, due to the very limited number of after hours incidents for these services, MiHIN will be no longer offer after hours support for HealthConnect (ie:VIPR, Results Delivery, Solution Center, etc.). Please place a helpdesk ticket and we will address your request on the next business day.
