MIAMI & SACRAMENTO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Sutter Health and OpenEvidence are teaming up to deliver the latest medical data and information to doctors working within electronic health records. This collaboration will help Sutter clinicians quickly find and use up-to-date clinical information – helping the system meet its high standards for quality, safety and patient-centered care.
OpenEvidence, the leading AI-powered medical search and decision-support platform, will allow Sutter physicians to find and implement the latest guidelines, studies and clinical evidence available. The platform will launch within Epic’s electronic health record workflows and offer easy, natural-language searches to clinicians across the Sutter system. As physicians care for patients with increasingly complex clinical needs, the OpenEvidence platform easily supports clinicians’ day-to-day practice with trusted, evidence-based data.
“At Sutter, we see AI as a tool that can enhance the information and data available to physicians to help them better serve patients,” said Dr. Ashley Beecy, chief artificial intelligence officer, Sutter Health. “Patients benefit when providers have the most current and relevant evidence incorporated into clinical decision-making. This collaboration enables our teams to access high-quality, peer-reviewed medical literature in real time, turning evidence into action while developing patient care plans.”
“Digital innovation plays a central role in our work to build a more connected, proactive and sustainable healthcare system. It’s how we’re transforming the way we serve patients, support care teams and improve outcomes,” added Laura Wilt, chief digital officer, Sutter Health. “We appreciate working alongside other like-minded organizations that share our vision for reimagining healthcare for the better.”
OpenEvidence is the most widely used clinical decision support platform among U.S. clinicians, supporting over 20 million clinical consultations in January. Over 100 million Americans were treated by a doctor using OpenEvidence last year.
“OpenEvidence was built to give every clinician instant access to the world’s best medical evidence,” said Dr. Travis Zack, chief medical officer, OpenEvidence. “It’s an honor to work alongside Sutter Health, an organization deeply committed to advancing innovation and supporting clinicians in delivering outstanding care. Together, we’re setting a new standard for how Medical AI can safely support clinical workflows.”
