EMPI for Healthcare

A complete patient record across systems, trusts and partners to the NHS.

The digitising of health services is challenging the sector to raise its data game. Great data supports improved outcomes. It delivers the effective patient insights needed for timely diagnosis and improved population health management.

A growth in volume of patient data creates duplication and quality issues for individual and merging NHS Trusts and their partners. The rise of Local Health and Care Record Exemplars (LHCRE), new Integrated Care Systems (ICS) and Sustainability and Transformation Partnerships (STP), make data management more important than ever. To be effective they need a single source of trusted data.

Civica’s cloud-enabled Enterprise Master Patient Index (EMPI), MultiVue, helps healthcare practitioners and solution providers to accurately match, merge and master data from many sources, including when no NHS number is available or an individual has multiple NHS numbers. It ensures a complete, accurate and shareable view of patients and providers; anywhere, at any time, and on any device.

We can deliver a shared care record to help you coordinate and deliver services more effectively in under 90 days.

MultiVue forms the citizen identity core of the GM Digital Platform and has been pivotal in supporting our COVID response.
