Understanding the EMIS Partner Programme

In the rapidly evolving world of digital health, and particularly across primary care in the NHS, integration and interoperability are key to providing seamless and effective healthcare solutions.

As a leading health-tech company, EMIS Group has been at the forefront of delivering transformative technology in the healthcare industry for over 30 years. A crucial part of this mission is their EMIS Partner Programme, designed to foster collaboration and innovation among digital health innovators.

What is the EMIS Partner Programme?

The EMIS Partner Programme is a strategic initiative that invites technology innovators to integrate their solutions with EMIS’s extensive portfolio.

With over 100 partners accredited to the EMIS partner programme, it offers a diverse array of quality, add-on products that enhance and complement EMIS’s healthcare solutions. The programme provides flexibility and choice, enabling healthcare providers to meet their unique local needs while ensuring the products adhere to high clinical and ethical standards.

Levels of Partnership

The programme is structured to accommodate various types of partnerships, each offering distinct benefits:

  • Interoperability Partner: This level focuses on using standard APIs to integrate with EMIS’s solutions, providing seamless and efficient connectivity. This off-the-shelf service simplifies the integration process, allowing partners to deliver cohesive solutions to joint customers.
  • Elite Partner: Designed for solutions that either integrate with or stand alone yet complement the EMIS portfolio. Elite partners leverage EMIS’s business services, such as sales and marketing, to achieve significant market scale.
  • Major Partner: This level involves large strategic partners developing complex, functionally rich integrations that offer a more comprehensive user experience. Major partners work on high-value use cases requiring bespoke interoperability services beyond standard offerings.

Benefits of Partnering with EMIS

EMIS collaborates with big tech companies to develop groundbreaking solutions, such as using FHIR APIs (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources), which facilitate easy integration into their point-of-care systems. This alliance ensures that partners are part of an innovative ecosystem pushing the boundaries of healthcare technology.

Through EMIS-X Analytics, partners gain access to deeper data insights at a population level. This capability not only helps improve healthcare services but also supports public health research, offering exciting potential for significant contributions to health outcomes.

The development of EMIS’s solutions is also supported by significant clinical insight. By collaborating with partners and customers, EMIS ensures that their technology is purpose-built to meet the practical needs of healthcare professionals, enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of care delivery.

Joining the Programme

Becoming a part of the EMIS Partner Programme is a strategic step for any digital health innovator looking to make a substantial impact in the healthcare sector. Whether through the standard API integration of the Interoperability Partner level or the bespoke, complex solutions developed by Major Partners, there is a pathway suited for various innovative solutions.
