Zynx Health incorporates current national regulatory initiatives and P4P quality measures relevant to hospitals, physicians, and nurses throughout our clinical content. By providing concise summaries of relevant performance measures under each clinical topic and blue ribbons that highlight specific interventions associated with improved performance, Zynx saves valuable time otherwise spent searching multiple websites to keep track of quality initiatives.

How does an organization prioritize its quality improvement efforts to maximize clinical value?

With the ZynxEvidence™ forecasting tools, organizations can model the clinical and financial impacts of quality improvement initiatives and prioritize interventions in a clear, systematic fashion.

How can an organization drive care practice to encourage regulatory adherence and maximize P4P reimbursement?

With ZynxOrder™ and ZynxCare™, Zynx clinicians have developed order sets and plans of care that incorporate specific interventions based on relevant national regulatory initiatives and P4P quality measures. Zynx tools also help an organization customize order sets and plans of care to incorporate state, regional, or local initiatives.

"With Zynx Health tools and their physician leadership, we were able to develop standardized, disease specific, evidence-based order sets in a multidisciplinary setting in much less time than I ever dreamed possible."
