AT&T, Covisint and Microsoft to Deliver Nationwide Health Information Exchange Connecting Patient and Provider Communities
Innovative Solution Gives More Control to Patients and Provides Two-Way Medical Record Access and Collaboration
SAN ANTONIO, Texas; REDMOND, Wash.; and DETROIT, Mich., June 23, 2008 — AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T), Covisint, which is a subsidiary of Compuware Corp. (NASDAQ: CPWR), and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) today announced a major eHealth initiative — a nationwide information exchange — to enhance the health care experience for patients and practitioners alike.
The new eHealth information exchange is a revolutionary approach designed to reduce costs and improve the quality of care while putting patients in control of their medical records. It allows consumers using Microsoft® HealthVault™, a software and service-based platform for storing and accessing personal health information, to share information with authorized physicians and health care providers connected to AT&T Healthcare Community Online.
The new eHealth information exchange, enabled by Covisint’s On-Demand Healthcare Platform and layered on AT&T’s patented eHealth solutions and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network, shares information electronically and in a security-enhanced way across the continuum of care — from patient to provider communities such as HealthVault, health-information exchanges and insurers.
