Altera Digital Health launches TouchWorks Note+ for clinical note generation
Altera Digital Health has launched TouchWorks Note+, an ambient listening and note generation solution intended to streamline the documentation process for healthcare providers. The new solution, which is fully integrated with TouchWorks EHR, represents an advancement in Altera's plan to develop AI and modernise electronic health record (EHR) workflows. TouchWorks Note+ is claimed to be the sole solution that seamlessly integrates and transforms provider inputs from ambient listening, voice dictation, text entry, and pre-set macros into structured and codified data suitable for clinical applications and billing purposes. The system captures ambient audio from both desktop and, in compatible setups, from mobile devices. It discreetly records natural conversations during clinical interactions, enabling healthcare providers to concentrate entirely on their patients and foster stronger connections, stated the company. Following the appointment, the solution produces a comprehensive, editable draft of notes for the provider to review and finalise with ease. Altera stated that the integration of the new solution with TouchWorks EHR eliminates the need for multiple logins or duplicate data entry. This approach standardises documentation across visits, leading to more efficient charting and improved accuracy and consistency in coding. As a result, practices can depend more reliably on the data for future applications. Furthermore, due to the proprietary AI coordination platform, Altera stated that it can utilise the most advanced current and future large language models (LLMs) to facilitate precise and efficient data processing across various specialities and modalities. Altera Digital Health chief medical officer Dr Jeanne Armstrong said: 'As a practising physician, I know firsthand the toll documentation can take on clinical time and cognitive load. 'TouchWorks Note+ reimagines the provider experience, allowing providers to stay present with patients while the technology works behind the scenes. It's not just about documentation efficiency. It's about restoring the human connection between provider and patient.' Altera described TouchWorks Note+ as the first in a series of planned AI-driven developments aimed at giving providers more time with patients by reducing time spent on documentation.

Altera Digital Health Delivers Ambient Listening and Note Generation to Provider Practices with TouchWorks Note+
NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Altera Digital Health, a global health IT leader, today announced the launch of TouchWorks Note+, an ambient listening and note generation solution designed to help independent providers reduce documentation burdens, save time, improve data accuracy and enhance interactions with patients. Fully integrated with TouchWorks® EHR, the new solution is the latest milestone in Altera's broader investment in artificial intelligence (AI) development and electronic health record (EHR) workflow modernization. TouchWorks Note+ is the only solution that combines and converts provider inputs from ambient listening, voice dictation, text entry and pre-set macros into native, structured, codified data for clinical use and billing. It captures ambient listening from a desktop and, in supported deployments, from a mobile device. The AI securely records natural conversations during clinical encounters from the background, allowing providers to focus fully on the patient and build stronger rapport. After the visit, the solution generates a complete, editable note draft for the provider to easily review before finalizing. The deep integration between TouchWorks Note+ and TouchWorks EHR removes the burden on providers to manage separate login credentials, copy/paste information or repeat data entry. This helps standardize documentation across visits, enabling more efficient charting and more accurate, consistent coding so practices can better rely on the data for downstream use. Additionally, due to the solution's proprietary AI coordination platform, Altera can leverage the most comprehensive current and future large language models (LLMs) to enable accurate, efficient data processing across different specialties and modalities. 'As a practicing physician, I know firsthand the toll documentation can take on clinical time and cognitive load.

Altera Digital Health launches intelligent faxing solution
Altera Digital Health has introduced Sunrise Health Record, an intelligent faxing solution that aims to enhance health information management (HIM) and reduce the inefficiencies associated with manual faxing. This new offering is integrated with the Sunrise electronic health record (EHR) platform and is available for hospitals and health systems using Sunrise 25.1, the latest version of the company's comprehensive EHR system. Sunrise 25.1 was made available for mid-size hospitals and health systems last month. Faxing continues to be widespread in the healthcare sector because of interoperability challenges and misunderstandings regarding the privacy and security of data exchanged over the internet. Despite this, conventional faxing frequently requires users to switch between different systems and revise documents, leading to labour-intensive manual processes and risks to data integrity that jeopardise patient safety and adherence to regulations. Sunrise Health Record addresses these issues by providing a modern user interface with features that streamline communication. These include the integration of faxing within HIM shortfall management, enabling staff to send deficiency notices directly within the workflow, and configurable inbound fax queues that automatically route faxes to the appropriate department or user. In addition, single-click outbound faxing eliminates the need to download, rename, or reupload files, and real-time audit trails ensure complete visibility of the faxing process. Altera Digital Health Sunrise group leader and executive vice-president Jay Adams said: 'By embedding these capabilities directly into Sunrise, we're helping hospitals reduce delays, cut down on manual effort and drive better outcomes across core operational workflows. 'Faxing may still be part of healthcare, but the frustration doesn't have to be. Hospitals need health IT solutions that not only offer efficiency but also enable their teams to put time and attention where they're most needed.'

Altera Digital Health Launches Sunrise CarePath Patient Engagement Platform
BUSINESS WIRE)-- Altera Digital Health, a global health IT leader, today announced the launch of Sunrise™ CarePath, a mobile patient engagement platform designed to close communication gaps and reduce adverse events, readmissions and financial barriers. Fully integrated with the Sunrise™ EHR, Sunrise CarePath delivers capabilities including real-time secure messaging, self-scheduling, patient notifications and appointment reminders, and online billing integration. Sunrise CarePath, compatible with version 22.1, is now generally available to mid-size hospital and health system clients. Research suggests approximately 20% of patients experience adverse events within three weeks of hospital discharge, many of which are preventable. To bolster patient-provider communication, during and beyond the critical post-discharge period, Sunrise CarePath includes on-demand messaging that connects patients to care team members. Enabling patients to quickly clarify discharge instructions and report side effects in real time will help prevent avoidable emergency department (ED) visits and readmissions while also supporting patient confidence and continuity of care. Sunrise CarePath also offers instant appointment management and intelligent rescheduling/cancellation capabilities to help reduce missed appointments hindering proper medication management, timely interventions, care quality and hospital revenue. To further empower patients and encourage care plan adherence, Sunrise CarePath includes notifications for new health data and appointment reminders customized to the patient's communication preferences. Additionally, Sunrise CarePath integrates with hospital bill pay pages, enabling patients to pay medical bills in a paperless, convenient and secure manner. This removes friction from the patient financial experience and speeds up revenue collection, while also reducing administrative burdens for healthcare organizations. "When patients can't easily message their care team, manage follow-up appointments or stay on track with medications, adverse events are inevitable,' said Jay Adams, Executive Vice President and General Manager for Sunrise, Altera Digital Health. 'Sunrise CarePath gives hospitals powerful tools to close these gaps—helping clinicians protect patients and drive better outcomes after discharge. This level of engagement is key to delivering truly patient-centric care.'
