Hixny Releases Updated Snapshot App to Integrate Social and Medical Patient Care
ALBANY, N.Y., July 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Hixny recently released an update (2.7.0) to its patient record snapshot application that gives healthcare providers integrated access to the well-respected Accountable Health Communities Health-Related Social Needs Screening (AHC HRSN) tool. The screening allows providers to identify social determinants of health (SDOH), such as food and housing insecurity, or insufficient transportation, that affect a patient's physical or mental condition. Providers can then use Hixny's existing functionality to refer that person for services.
- ALBANY, N.Y., July 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Hixny recently released an update (2.7.0) to its patient record snapshot application that gives healthcare providers integrated access to the well-respected Accountable Health Communities Health-Related Social Needs Screening (AHC HRSN) tool.
- The screening allows providers to identify social determinants of health (SDOH), such as food and housing insecurity, or insufficient transportation, that affect a patient's physical or mental condition.
- Since Hixny's snapshot app is available in many major electronic health records (EHR) systems, providers can launch and review assessments without navigating away from a patient's open health record.
- "When the extension is approved, as we believe it will be, providers using Hixny will be positioned to meet the new requirements."
