Uber Health is collaborating with Cerner to embed its platform into the health IT company's electronic health record (EHR) system, according to an article on the Fierce Healthcare website.
The integration will make it easier for healthcare providers to schedule nonemergency transportation.
Providers who use Cerner's EHR will be able to access the tools to book transportation directly from the Cerner EHR.
A patient’s information, including name, phone number and pick-up address, will auto-populate from Cerner technology directly into a ride request with Uber.
