Eclipsys expands Sunrise access capabilities

DALLAS - Healthcare informatics firm Eclipsys of Boca Raton, FL, unveiled two new products at the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) conference yesterday -- Remote Access Services (RAS) 4.0 XA and Pocket Sunrise 4.0 XA.

RAS 4.0 XA provides clinicians with access to the company's Sunrise Clinical Manager application from locations outside an institution. The product allows clinicians to enter orders and access all configured patient lists, patient charts, and demographics, as well as review results. An optional Secure Health Messaging module enables clinicians to interact with one another or with patients via e-mail.

The firm also introduced Pocket Sunrise 4.0 XA, a wireless, portable companion application to Sunrise XA that runs on a Microsoft Pocket PC-enabled device. The product allows clinicians to review patient information or enter simple orders. Complex orders can be pre-configured and stored on the device for later selection, Eclipsys said.

A "My Favorites" capability, developed by chief medical information officer Dr. Rick Mansour, allows a physician to pre-configure a list of orders appropriate to their clinical specialty for later selection. The product enables the use of configured Sunrise Clinical Manager patient lists and other patient information, such as allergies, health issues, visit history, significant events, insurance, employer, care providers, emergency contacts, demographics, and comments, according to the developer.

Pocket Sunrise 4.0 XA and RAS 4.0 XA are available now on a facility-licensing basis, the company said.
