I’m steadily getting all those interviews I did 3+ months ago at HIMSS up onto THCB. (For those of you not paying attention we had a bunch of tech issues at THCB needing a big change and had to forswear videos for a while. But we’re baaack…)

Intersystems has grown dramatically in recent years as its Cache database tends to get sold in conjunction with Epic’s EMR. But Intersytems not only has its own EMR (sold outside of the US) but is a big player in the HIE business. At HIMSS 2015 they unveiled a new solution called the “Healthshare Personal Community” which allows providers and others to build patient accessible records on top of their HIE solution Healthshare. I interviewed Paul Grabscheid, VP of Strategic Planning about the company, the technology and what he’s seeing. (Ignore the last question as I ran out of disk space before he could answer!)
