Grant Supports Electronic Medical Orders Registry for Patients
DOVER, DE (May 31, 2022) — Delaware Health Information Network (DHIN) recently received a $50,000 BluePrints for the Community grant from Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield Delaware to support the Delaware Medical Orders for Scope of Treatment (DMOST) form electronic registry.
Spearheaded by the Delaware Quality of Life Coalition, a collaboration between the public and hospice and palliative care professionals, the DMOST initiative is designed to improve the quality of care received at the end of life by translating patient goals and preferences into medical orders.
“I think it has saved a lot of money particularly for my practice. I’m not getting duplicate faxes sent to me and from other facilities and that’s been a huge resource in terms of time. My staff is not spending time on the phone trying to get results sent. Instead we can just log onto DHIN, verify the patient, and have access to all of that in less than 30 seconds.”
