VillageMD, a leading national provider of primary care, has launched DocOS, its purpose-built digital healthcare system, that allows clinicians and patients to engage in patient care free from artificial physical or technical barriers, the official announcement reads.
With this ambient technology, physicians have access to critical patient information and insights that allows them to practice medicine optimally, all without changing their existing EHR.
“The shift to a value-centered health system requires that physicians proactively manage conditions by anticipating what patients are going to need, early enough so that we can make impactful interventions. Our operating system is the conduit to help make this happen,” said Clive Fields, M.D., co-founder and chief medical officer, VillageMD, and president of Village Family Practice, a large, multi-site clinic based in Houston. “This system allows us to extend the doctor-patient relationship beyond the exam room and into everyday life to promote faster, more convenient pre-emptive care. This is a game changer.”
