Health Gorilla Releases Marketplace 2.0 for Doctors

Healthcare Marketplace Connects Providers with Tens of Thousands of Vendors to Simplify Workflow and Ensure Compliant Communications

SUNNYVALE, CA., October 28, 2014 – Health GorillaTM, Inc., the first online healthcare marketplace to connect doctors and clinicians with over 9,000+ diagnostic labs and 35,000+ radiology centers, today announced the release of Health Gorilla Marketplace 2.0.  Health Gorilla’s expanded marketplace adds many tens of thousands of vendors, seven new vendor categories and expanded support for physician medical groups such as Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and Independent Practice Associations (IPAs).

The marketplace was designed from the beginning to connect clinicians with diagnostic laboratories and radiology centers.  Now seven new vendor categories have been added to include:  doctors (providers), skilled nursing facilities, physical therapists, sleep centers, urgent care centers, surgical centers and home health. The Health Gorilla marketplace is also fully integrated with the Health Gorilla Mobile app.  This enables doctors that are outside the office to use their iPad and iPhones to receive results, place orders and communicate with team members, peers and patients.

Health Gorilla’s healthcare marketplace greatly simplifies the workflow of placing diagnostic orders to the most appropriate vendors, enabling diagnostic information exchange between providers within the affiliated ACO/IPA, while reducing the risk of communication errors between doctors and their patients -- all within a fully HIPAA compliant secure environment. Health Gorilla messaging enables a physician to forward diagnostic test results, radiology images, admission and discharge summaries and other clinical documents to patients and care coordinators in a fully compliant manner.  Health Gorilla Mobile also supports the same functionality using Apple® iPhone® and iPad mini™.

Benefits of the Health Gorilla Marketplace 2.0 include the following:

•             Order diagnostic tests in less time than it takes to use paper forms;

•             Receive results faster wherever you are;

•             Forward results to patients instantly;

•             Immediately refer or sync results with another doctor and send messages;

•             Eliminate error prone paper and fax processes;

•             Access to integrated mobile solution at no charge for doctors and their teams; and,

•             Privacy Assurance with HIPAA compliant and ONC modular certified MU2 solution.

“We have added support for affiliations to support Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), Independent Practice Associations (IPAs) and their physician members," said Andre Zudin, Chief Technology Officer, Health Gorilla, Inc.  “This allows ACOs and IPAs to extend our marketplace to their entire roster of membership.  The benefits are compelling and include connectivity to any number of preferred vendors and full visibility to ordering patterns across the entire group.  Because of the EMR-agnostic nature of the marketplace, we see great adoption by physicians and staff. ACOs and IPAs can now benefit from this level of control, visibility and managed secure communications.  No other vendor can provide this benefit at anywhere near the extremely low cost and high efficiency of a marketplace.”

Liquid Medical Office, Inc. Joins the Health Gorilla™ Advantage™ Partner Program

Leading EMR Vendor Integrates with Health Gorilla Marketplace

SUNNYVALE, Ca., – Health Gorilla, Inc., the first online healthcare marketplace to connect doctors and clinicians with over 9,000+ diagnostic labs and 35,000+ radiology centers, and Liquid Medical Office Inc., a leading provider of EMR (Electronic Medical Record) and HIE (Health Information Exchange) systems, have announced plans to integrate their cloud based services.  Physicians will now have unlimited electronic access to order and receive results from any number of diagnostic labs and radiology centers through the LiquidEMR, LiquidHIE and other Liquid cloud services.

“The integration of Liquid enterprise and cloud services with Health Gorilla’s marketplace provides a superior solution for clinicians,” said Steven Yaskin, Chief Executive Officer.  “Today medical practices depend on electronic medical records (EMR) solutions for access to critical patient information, but continue to rely on paper documents and faxing, especially when dealing with diagnostic labs and radiology centers.  Now, together, Liquid Medical Office and Health Gorilla can provide any medical practice virtually any number of electronic interfaces, set-up for ordering and receiving diagnostic tests and results.  We bind all of this together with secure messaging which can be used within each medical practice, or, can enable different clinicians in different practices to communicate. This is in sharp contrast to some of the “free” EMR companies that try to charge doctors, or the diagnostic labs, perhaps $15,000 or more for a single interface.”

“Digital health brings new opportunities for our member physicians and their patients to expand access to information and services in a secure environment,“ said Dr. Huy Trinh, founder of Northern California Advantage Independent Practice Association (IPA).  “The Health Gorilla Healthcare Marketplace and Liquid Medical Office will now provide complete access to any mix of diagnostic laboratories or radiology centers and ultimately enable secure patient access and communication.  This is a powerful combination – it enables us to improve the accuracy and speed of communications between our physicians, our patients and the vendors that support us.  We believe that this has the potential over time to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs for our IPA.”

Liquid Medical Office, Inc. provides an integrated enterprise and cloud suite of paperless solutions including scheduling, electronic medical records, paperless document management and integrated electronic billing in one comprehensive package.  This gives clinicians flexible access to medical records, saving time, enhancing patient care, and improving regulatory compliance.  Easy to install, easy to use, Liquid Medical Office brings a paperless clinical environment that increases efficiency, reduces costs and allows physicians the flexibility to practice without systemic intrusion.

“We’re putting a truly complete solution in the hands of the physicians," said Bruce Young, Chief Executive Officer, Liquid Medical Office, Inc.  “Legacy EMR vendors have always been missing key functionality.  The physician ends up with one or two electronic interfaces at excessive cost, half a dozen proprietary portals and the ongoing liability of a constant stream of faxed data.  The integration between Liquid Medical Office and the Health Gorilla healthcare marketplace gives the physician one single place to manage all of their vendors.  This reduces the cost to the medical practice, reduces the ongoing risks associated with fax and brings improvement to productivity and workflow within the medical practice.  It is a natural step for us to leverage this same capability for secure communications within Liquid Enterprise and Hosted Services to support Accountable Care Organizations (ACO’s) and Independent Practice Associations (IPA’s).  As a leading provider of software for the medical community, we’re very pleased to join the Health Gorilla marketplace.”

Health Gorilla Receives Funding to Grow Digital Healthcare Businesss

Digital health funding is expected to nearly double in the next three years – from $3.5 billion in 2014 to $6.5 billion by the end of 2017, according to new research[1] by Accenture. Among the participants in this market, Health Gorilla and its Online Healthcare Marketplace continue to make significant progress as demand skyrockets. Both healthcare and technology media following this space are highlighting the successes made by Health Gorilla, including recent news. In a recent article titled, Health Gorilla Receives Funding to Grow its Digital Healthcare Business as Market, editors covered financing led by True Ventures saying, “Health Gorilla’s online marketplace links doctors and clinicians with more than 9,000 diagnostic labs and more than 35,000 radiology centers, enabling online ordering and digitally delivered results to speed up the process and reduce-based paperwork admin (such as sending and receiving faxes).”

The article continued… “[Health Gorilla’s] centralized, single point of entry marketplace for ordering diagnostic tests streamlines the process for doctors by removing the need to negotiate multiple different incumbent systems, as well as by offering real-time access to results. It also intends to open up patient access to its platform so individual results can be communicated by doctors to their patients via its system — again with a focus on time and efficiency savings. Health Gorilla says the marketplace is HIPPA compliant and supports ONC modular certified MU2 at no extra charge. Its business model is to offer its system free to doctors but to charge a small fee per order to the labs and centers using its platform.”

According to Accenture, “Pressures on the US healthcare system coupled with evolving consumer expectations have fueled the appetite for funding of digital healthcare start-ups and have ushered in a new era of industry innovation. A digital disruption in healthcare is being played out, as witnessed by the emergence of new business models and technology offerings that change social interactions, alter consumer expectations and ultimately improve health outcomes.”

Health Gorilla is a software-centric organization with a patient-driven vision on the future of Healthcare. Healthcare technologies today are concentric to the doctor’s practice – not the patient. Patients go to different providers, switch providers and have a variety of test results and services from other referred vendors. A marketplace solves this problem. Data is now organized in a patient concentric clinical view, initially with the doctors and their ecosystem of vendors, and then for the patient directly. Diagnostic vendors also benefit. They can reduce the expense of subsidizing EMR connections, eliminate investment in portals that are not used, and focus on their core business which is providing high quality diagnostic tests. This is a new technology wave that Health Gorilla is addressing, ultimately making patient records truly portable for everyone’s benefit. Improved patient care and improved patient outcomes.

Breast Imaging Specialists Joins the Health Gorilla™, Inc. Online Marketplace

Leading Provider of Tomosynthesis Joins Marketplace

SUNNYVALE, Ca., October 1, 2014 – Health Gorilla, Inc., the first online healthcare marketplace to connect doctors and clinicians with over 9,000+ diagnostic labs and 35,000+ radiology centers, and Breast Imaging Specialists (eBreastImaging.com) have announced a new multi-year agreement which extends Breast Imaging Specialists diagnostic imaging services through the Health Gorilla Marketplace.  Breast Imaging Specialists is one of the leading providers of tomosynthesis (3D mammography) services in the western United States.

“Breast Imaging Specialists brings very advanced diagnostic technology and services to our marketplace” said Steven Yaskin, Chief Executive Officer.  “3D mammography has the real potential to save lives.  Our marketplace enables customers such as Breast Imaging Specialists to process diagnostic imaging orders electronically and then deliver results rapidly and securely to doctors.”

Headquartered in Los Gatos, California, Breast Imaging Specialists has lead the way in bringing advanced technology and better diagnostic techniques to woman’s health.  Tomosynthesis or 3D mammography is a relatively new breast imaging modality which will likely replace traditional (digital) mammography due to its’ increased detection rates and superior performance when compared to regular 2D mammography.  The June 2014 Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) summarized the increased detection rates seen in multicenter center study which involved Harvard (The Massachusetts General Hospital) and the University of Pennsylvania.  The study showed a remarkable increase in invasive cancer detection of 41% using tomosynthesis.  The detection rate increase for Breast Imaging Specialists in the same category is 100% (59% increase over the other large scale institutions in the JAMA study which is being presented at the international meeting of radiologists, The Radiological Society of North America in November, 2014).

"It is our mission to bring the very best technology and expertise to our patients.  Better diagnosis has the potential to save more lives." said Dr. Dipa Patel, Chief Medical Officer at Breast Imaging Specialists.  “The Health Gorilla Marketplace has enabled us to more easily and accurately extend our services to any doctor and to more rapidly support our mutual patients.  We’ve set the stage to enable patient access to their data through the Health Gorilla Marketplace.  It is a big win for us.”
