Privacy regulations that govern healthcare data exchange can at times slow the industry's adoption of new technologies. Despite that, at Allscripts, we have long been committed to interoperability that delivers more than just data. We believe that data must be useful to the clinician at the point of care. Data Is Powerful...And Problematic I mentioned that our data warehouse contains the de-identified records of 151 million unique patients. That's about half the size of the US population, and it includes genomic data. We're able to search for specific diagnostic markers that help clinicians match treatments to patients and that may reveal required test and treatments. It creates a whole new level of analysis and insight. Our customers include several networks of children's hospitals that are using our tools and data to do groundbreaking work in pediatric oncology. It's incredibly powerful when hospitals leverage today's cloud storage and high-speed connectivity to share data with each other. However, access to patient data is a huge challenge for healthcare organizations that want to adopt solutions that change how they interact with patients and each other. Healthcare data is highly protected, and for good reason. That's why our solutions are all about giving care professionals access to the right information no matter where they are or which vendor or networks they use. Another challenge is the sheer amount of data a provider or doctor has to provide insurance companies for reimbursement. The information is highly specific, has to be in a particular format, and isn't always captured during the patient encounter. Our commitment to ease the burden on clinicians is second to none. We have made great strides in reducing the impact of this challenge in the latest versions of our practice management software. Our customers are open to adopting new technologies, and our early adopters are doing amazing things. What I see among our customers is a willingness to partner with organizations like ours so that their patients can benefit from latest technologies. Fortunately, the improvements in connectivity and telemedicine make that more possible in rural areas. 9
