A Rose by any other Name

Connect Care stakeholders may struggle with unfamiliar health informatics terms and a host of new names for CIS modules and functions. As Epic Systems Corporation, our technology partner, works closely with all levels of Connect Care contributors, it can help to have an 'Epic-speak' crib-sheet.

For starters, we have enhanced the online eHealth Glossary to include short descriptions of software modules and applications that come up during Connect Care direction setting and clinical system design discussions. The 'CIS' layer of the glossary will be expanded to include other terms important to design and build activities.
