Metriport

Metriport provides real-time access to comprehensive medical data for 300M+ individuals across the US. Our open-source intelligence platform helps organizations access, analyze, and exchange patient data while integrating with all major healthcare IT systems.

If you’ve been to doctors in the US, you may have encountered the problem: how does a healthcare provider get access to your up-to-date medical history to treat you properly? Reliance on archaic methods is still the norm: typically, you or your provider need to call the facilities where you’ve previously received treatment (assuming you remember them all), just to have them send your records via fax (yep, fax). This can take weeks, only then to have a provider sift through hundreds of pages of unstructured docs, just to figure out basic things like your active medication list, what conditions you may have, latest lab results, etc. This not only delays care—it can cause improper treatment, since the medical history is critical for informing treatment decisions.

Medical API & Dashboard

Through an FHIR-native API and Dashboard, Metriport integrates fragmented medical data from thousands of sources—including both national and state/regional Healthcare Information Exchanges (HIEs), ADTs, EHRs, pharmacies, and labs—through a single connector. The platform then standardizes, deduplicates, and enriches this data to create a comprehensive longitudinal patient record, with AI-powered clinical summaries.

Along with a rich understanding of patient health history, healthcare providers also get realtime updates about their patients' health through Metriport. This includes getting notified when a patient is discharged from the hospital, picks up their prescription from the pharmacy, or has a new lab result available. Through this data, care teams get insights across their patient population, helping with 30-day readmissions prediction, care gap closure, risk adjustment, and more.

On top of all of this, Metriport enables healthcare organizations to share net-new clinical information back to all major healthcare IT systems, and to become interoperable with major Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems such as Epic, Cerner, athena, eClinicalWorks, and many more—forming an internet for healthcare data.

EHR Apps

Metriport offers a growing number of out-of-the-box applications available within popular EHRs, such as athena, Canvas, Elation, eClinicalWorks, Medplum, Healthie, Altera, and more.

This enables healthcare providers to access and manage patient data more efficiently. Our EHR apps support both embedded applications within the EHR workflow and automated data synchronization capabilities.

Each app is designed to:

• Enable instant access to comprehensive patient medical record summaries
• Automate patient creation and data synchronization
• Support document queries and retrieval

Metriport improves both patient and provider lives at the point-of-care, supporting use cases such as chart prep, medication adherence, transitions of care management, and much more.

Why Open-Source?

Metriport is the world’s first open-source platform of its kind, which comes with a number of advantages:

1. Immortal code: with our open-source approach, you’re reliant on our code, not our business. If a closed-source company goes out of business tomorrow, its customers are out of luck. With open-source, you get unparalleled reliability, always maintaining the ability to self-host the source code on your own servers. This advantage can be especially critical in healthcare, where organizations need to ensure longterm stability and success for their patients.
2. Security: externally auditable source code makes Metriport more secure than our proprietary counterparts. Furthermore, closed-source vendors may not be as forthcoming about any security issues, leaving their customers vulnerable to potential security breaches. It goes without saying, but we’re also HIPAA and SOC 2 Type 2 compliant, thanks to our compliance monitoring partner, Oneleet.
3. Cost-effectiveness: in addition to offering a SaaS cloud hosted solution, we also offer our customers the ability to self-host our code, meaning there’s no risk of vendor lock-in. This is ideal for companies looking for a long term vendor partnership, knowing they can always self-host down the road once they scale their business.
4. Customizability: our solutions allows customers to benefit from community contributions, and build their own custom features and integrations on top of our source code.
