eClinicalWorks CEO Girish Navani demonstrated his latest cloud-based EHR software along with other new Health IT offerings for inpatient settings at HIMSS18 in Las Vegas. While giving a glimpse of his forthcoming EHR software, Navani announced that it resembles a Bloomberg Terminal.

ys information in order to help bond traders in making the right decisions in near real-time, it was announced that the next version of eClinicalWorks EHR software would provide physicians with four major technologies each on its very own screen.
While explaining the new software and their future plans eClinicalWorks CEO Girish Navani said, “We spent the last decade putting data in EHRs. The next decade is about intelligence and creating inferences that improve care outcomes.”
Navani further pointed out that machine learning could not isolate the abnormal results that need instant action from the normal ones that do not need any immediate action. But still it could easily recognize an atrial fibrillation patient having a very high potassium level and needs to go to an ambulatory facility straightaway. This is because the said problem which is serious in nature could actually manifest in 48 hours.
“There is enough information now for machine learning to work. We can have the computer do things for the clinician to make them aware of actions they can take,” Navani said.
“eClinicalWorks is currently developing the software to recognize hardware monitors, such as Microsoft Surface, that work with Google Chrome,” he added.
Navani announced that eClinicalWorks was also planning to debut its latest software in late 2018 or early 2019 and plans to show it at the next year’s HIMSS conference.
