DISSM is a patented technology solution that provides detailed specifications for a clinically integrated, comprehensive and standard format for displaying patient test results in the same way across all points of care.
DISSM is a universal interface that can be easily embedded in the presentation layer of any ambulatory or hospital electronic health record (EHR), personal health record (PHR) or health information exchange (HIE). It is ideally suited for the development of customized, event-driven clinical decision support system (CDSS) applications.
Working prototype systems developed in two Rhode Island acute care hospitals have documented a media reduction impact averaging 80 percent as well as major improvements in both data readability and usability.
The
DISSM Technology solution was specifically designed for immediate use by all test results data users in physician offices, hospital inpatient facilities and outpatient clinics and community health centers. Its implementation will depend on collaborative innovation among a number of interdependent stakeholders. These include all the test results data providers in hospital and community-based clinical laboratories and in imaging and other testing facilities and the vendors of EHRs and PHRs, as well as the vendors of HIE data integration and exchange platforms and the RHIOs/HIEs that they serve.
Our current technology integration
partners include: EpiChart, a CCHIT and SureScripts-certified ambulatory EHR/PMS product from Polaris Medical Management, Inc. and ERCard, a leading online Personal Health Record (PHR).
