Products

Axolotl's Elysium solutions manage the creation, transformation, distribution, exchange, storage, retrieval, and analysis of patient health care data.

Elysium has an open, extensible architecture and can be deployed in a combination of product modules that best suits the needs of each individual customer. Examples of such customers are Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs), hospitals, Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs), reference laboratories, physicians, payers, public health departments or any mix of these. Elysium is web-based and deployment requires only the use of standard web-browsers.

Elysium Products:

Elysium Community Virtual Health Record (VHR) assembles information, on demand, from all connected healthcare systems to enable clinicians to view a patient's complete electronic health record. Viewed through a standard browser, data is presented in a logical, chart-like manner and includes admission records, discharge summaries, visit records, medication history, problem lists, allergies, current eligibility information, and the results of all tests and exams ordered by clinicians.

Elysium EMR Lite provides physician practices with an electronic medical record system with integrated workflow management. It includes:
  • Clinical Messaging
    Results and patient data automatically populate personal clinical inboxes. Physicians and office staff manage their inboxes interactively - forwarding reports to consulting physicians, writing prescriptions, ordering lab tests, and optionally queuing data to print in the medical records department.

    Physicians and staff use secure communication to collaborate with each other and their health care partners. Physician consults, patient memos, referrals, authorization requests etc. are delivered electronically to the clinical inbox of recipients or to EMR systems, or by fax to non-automated practices.

  • E-Prescribing
    Elysium prescription management focuses on the workflow surrounding the creation of prescriptions, refills, and renewals, as well as providing automated delivery to pharmacies through the SureScripts network or by fax.

  • Workflow Management
    Physicians interact directly with Elysium, electronically managing all incoming data and eliminating the need to pull charts. They can create orders, sign documents and delegate tasks to assistants and to office staff.

    Customized forms can be created to capture clinical encounter information. Results stored in one practices' EMR Lite can be forwarded to another practices' EMR Lite for consultation. Customized authorization and referral forms can be created to IPA or payer requirements.

  • Electronic Signature
    Physicians improve turn around time on hospital reports using Elysium e-signature. For Hospital Information Management (HIM) departments, signed reports are returned directly into medical records chart completion applications or hospital EHR systems.

  • Electronic Ordering
    From their web-based desktop, physicians and staff use intelligent, intuitive ordering forms to place lab and radiology orders with their supplier of choice. For each supplier, Elysium provides a compendium of tests, one or more intelligent order forms and automatic printing of Advanced Beneficiary Notices.

  • Care Management
    Using configurable patient selection criteria, such as age and gender, and test data criteria (e.g. A1C > 7.0), reports for chronic disease monitoring can easily be created and updated to look at information across the physician practice..

  • Public Health
    Public Health Reporting of communicable diseases by physicians is improved as office staff complete Web-based forms that are automatically forwarded to the appropriate Health Department staff.

    Required abnormal lab data is delivered automatically to public health officials allowing them to immediately alert providers regarding urgent public health issues and enabling them to identify trends - data can be de-identified as needed to ensure privacy.

Elysium Transcription Management System is a comprehensive transcription management application that provides complete control over the entire transcription process. Hospital and clinics can view the status of all outstanding dictations and transcribed reports in real-time. They can view and make necessary changes to reports, monitor cost of in-house or outsourced transcription, automate printing and distribution to dictating physicians and track delinquent dictations and reports on-line.

Elysium EdgeServer consolidates reports from all departments in a single hospital, and automates report delivery to affiliated physicians. Results can be transmitted directly into ambulatory care EMRs, sent by fax, or automatically printed. Optionally, Elysium EdgeServer builds an internal repository of transmitted data for subsequent query by internal and appropriately authorized external personnel. *Available for Healthcare Systems in order to provide immediate access to patient information when and where it is needed, without requiring change to the hospitals internal systems.

 
How Elysium HIE Works

Elysium HIE functionality is provided through three product layers: Framework, Gateways, and Presentation Services - as seen above, Elysium Community Virtual Health Record (VHR) and Elysium EMR Lite.
Framework: The framework layer includes the following:
  • Record Locator
    The Elysium Master Patient Index (MPI) is the basis of a Record Locator Service (RLS), which is able to find patient-related data across multiple sources. Reliable patient identification provides the ability for users to query for a patient's complete Virtual Health Record (VHR) when parts of the continuum of care record are scattered across the community.

  • Entity Registration
    All users of the system must be identified. Entity registration provides the mechanism by which entities and users are made known to Elysium as well as authenticated and authorized for use of all functions. This feature is enabled through the Elysium Directory. The Elysium Directory identifies each user of Elysium uniquely to the network, including job role, title, addresses, and the EMR application information for distribution and collaboration. Entity Registration also provides for administration of user accounts, complete auditing and reporting of entity and user activities.

  • Security
    VPNs and SSL protect private health information as it is exchanged between hospitals, labs, third-party EMRs, and Elysium. Its robust role-based security system with configurable access controls and enhanced reporting ensures that Elysium users can meet the requirements of HIPAA and their local privacy regulations.

  • Elysium Interoperability Hub (I-Hub)
    The Elysium I-Hub takes clinical data in a wide array of formats, converts that data into a standard format, preserving the original clinical content, and presents that data to any number of third-party EMR systems.

Gateways: Elysium gateway layer includes the technology needed to connect Elysium to other systems for information exchange.
  • Elysium EdgeServer
    The Elysium EdgeServer provides a gateway between Elysium and hospital, lab, and radiology information systems as well as EMR applications outside the Elysium network. Functions within the EdgeServer insulate entity operational systems from intrusion, respond to external queries, and transform data into standard formats for delivery into the Elysium network.

  • Real-time/web-services connections
    Web-service queries and responses are supported in Elysium gateway components.
