Upcoming press release:
UCHealth is excited to be the first in the state of Colorado to offer Open Notes to all 1.5 million patients in our system (as of May 2016). Open notes are now available across the spectrum of care, including outpatient clinics and emergency department notes to hospital discharge summaries. We believe that information transparency is crucial; an informed and engaged patient is a healthier patient.
Or, in Haiku form:
Not sure what Doc said?
Why hide medical advice?
Open Notes are here.
