A MongoDB Case Study
Practice Fusion is the largest cloud-based connected health platform in the U.S., with over 30,000 healthcare practices using its services to manage patient records and coordinate care. As part of its commitment to connected healthcare, Practice Fusion implemented a novel Clinical Data Repository (CDR) using MongoDB. The CDR is designed for heavy read activity, assembling complex data structures such as patient records from multiple relational databases and packaging them as documents in MongoDB for efficient distribution. Practice Fusion’s CDR serves as a foundation for standards-based exchange of patient data between healthcare organizations.
