Uber to integrate with an EHR system for U.S. providers

A patient’s information, including name, phone number and pick-up address, will auto-populate in Uber ride requests


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.

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.
