The release of information process is challenging for healthcare providers.
With its deep knowledge of critical healthcare business issues, MRO lifts the burden of analog processes, helping providers keep up with developments related to compliance standards, regulatory changes, data management, accuracy and experience expectations, privacy and security.

The modular technology of MRO’s Release Exchange was purpose built to address the challenging issues facing hospitals and health systems, as well as clinics and practices, in the areas of health information management, revenue integrity, security, and compliance. Powered by MRO’s Clinical Data Exchange Platform (CDXP), Release Exchange optimizes traditional analog processes and digitally exchanges clinical data.
Fully Digital Release Exchange
Through requester portals and MROeLink® electronic medical record (EMR) integrations like Patient Lookup and Auto-Retrieval, Release Exchange automates the intake, acquisition and delivery of less complex, standardized requests. Current use cases focus on Risk Adjustments, with new use cases being continuously developed. The results culminate in efficient workflows, faster turnaround times, and reduced administrative burden, all while giving providers full visibility into what is being released to enforce their governance practices and protect patients’ privacy. Release Exchange is complimentary to EMRs and helps maximize technology investments.

As an organization, we needed a solution to help ease the burden of patients trying to request their medical records. Many of our patients requesting records live in rural areas, and it’s often hard to travel to us in person to request their records. The eXpress application has made the process simple and easy. Prior to implementing eXpress, we averaged a turnaround time of 3.4 days over the course of a year. Just six months after implementing, our average turnaround time has decreased to 1.1 days. Additionally, our patients who use the portal have rated eXpress a 4.1 out of 5 for ease of use and satisfaction.
