Convergence of Data
Real-time dashboard and robust reporting increase evidence-based care and documentation for quality metrics.
How Converge Works
- Clinical tools streamline referrals, workflows and increase standardization with decision support.
- Integrated administrative features ensure automated execution for everything from referral eligibility and
scheduling, to billing and documentation for quality or certification requirements. - Electronic consultations or “eConsults” facilitate a care plan dialogue between providers. Most eConsults
are completed within a day and over 60% are resolved without a specialist office visit.

“By facilitating communication and maximizing scheduling access, eConsult plays a significant
