Enhancing patient care and collaboration start with
end-to-end interoperability
Enhancing patient care and collaboration start with end-to-end interoperability
Philips Interoperability Solutions (formerly Forcare) understands the challenges you face in today’s complex healthcare environment and we have made it our mission to help you address them. Our goal is to streamline your workflow and improve care collaboration by enabling smooth data exchange across healthcare players. Philips Interoperability Solutions have helped numerous healthcare enterprises and health systems create connected suites of information systems that create, manage and share clinical information – driving efficiency and ultimately enhancing the quality of care.
Promoting care collaboration across the health continuum
Interoperability is the foundation of the Philips health continuum vision. At Philips Interoperability Solutions, we bring together patient clinical information as people travel through the stages of the health continuum to improve care.
How our interoperability platform works
Interoperability platform
Build the foundation for care collaboration and growth
Our approach to interoperability allows systems, departments and stakeholders to communicate with each other and exchange clinical information. Based on IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) global standards, it offers a future-focused and positive answer to today’s interoperability challenges. Open, established standards, such as XDS, XDW, HL7, FHIR and DICOM, make our solution multi-vendor positive. We welcome and support vendors at every level, giving you more freedom and choice to empower the flow of information inside and outside your enterprise. Moreover, high-level security protects your sensitive data and provides peace of mind.

Bring information and people together with interoperability as a service
As your enterprise shifts to value-based care, how can you ensure that care providers have the information when and where they need it – without exposing your enterprise to financial risk? Instead of wondering how your hardware will manage data in multiple formats from multiple sources, create an environment of clinical information exchange that’s always on, always working. Since these services are hosted, you get all the benefits of an open-standards based information model – without the burden of investing in and maintaining your own hardware. There’s no vendor lock-in, so you’re always free to decide whom to partner with as your enterprise evolves. Our solution allows collaborating care providers to exchange all kinds of healthcare information seamlessly and with the security that sensitive patient data demands.
We’re not just vendor neutral, we’re multi-vendor positive
You’ve invested time and money in your infrastructure – and for good reason. We welcome and support vendors of every variety, including our competition, to empower the flow of information across care settings. We do this by implementing open standards in every aspect of our platform. This has enabled us to build strong relationships with major healthcare IT and clinical players, based on mutual trust and goals. Our knowledge of the applications and technologies used by major vendors helps us in turn build efficiencies of scale to benefit customers. That means you’re always free to continue to work with your current technology partners and add new partners as your enterprise evolves. By embracing all vendors, we help you do more with what you have, working collaboratively to achieve what matters to you.
