Electronic Health Record System

Altera (Allscripts)

Primary Electronic Health Record System

Research Analysis
Methodology & Findings

Northwell Health primarily utilizes the FollowMyHealth patient portal, which provides patients with online access to their personal health records and allows for communication with healthcare providers. FollowMyHealth is described as a cloud-based patient engagement platform designed to integrate with various Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems. Northwell Health has a long-standing partnership with Allscripts (now Veradigm) and uses Allscripts Sunrise as its EHR system in its hospitals and Allscripts Touchworks in its outpatient practices. The health system has been using Allscripts' EHR since 2009 and has extended its agreements for both Sunrise and Touchworks. Northwell Health and Allscripts also announced a collaboration to jointly develop a next-generation EHR platform. This strong relationship, including Northwell Holdings' investment alongside Veradigm in other ventures, further indicates that Allscripts/Veradigm is the primary EHR vendor for Northwell Health. While FollowMyHealth is designed to be EHR-agnostic and can integrate with various systems, its association with Allscripts/Veradigm and Northwell Health's extensive use of Allscripts' Sunrise and Touchworks platforms indicates that FollowMyHealth is the patient portal connected to Northwell Health's Allscripts EHR system. Some smaller or affiliated practices within the Northwell Health Physician Partners network may use different patient portals like MyChart (associated with Stamford Health, an affiliate) or ezAccess and My Patient Visit for specific practices. However, FollowMyHealth is the widely used and promoted patient portal for the main Northwell Health system.
