Faster Case Finding
Because cancer cases begin with diagnosis, the ability to easily identify new diagnoses is critical to fast and accurate case finding. Impac Software’s PathConnect™ maximizes your oncology IT investment by automatically transferring data from Impac Software’s PowerPath to METRIQ. The result is expedited case finding, as well as decreased transcription errors and improved data accuracy and consistency.

Standards Compliance
PathConnect is a Health Level 7 (HL7) compliant interface that supports the import of pathology data elements – discrete demographic and ICD-9 data fields, free text fields, and date information. In addition to exporting discrete data fields in HL7 standard format, Impac Software anatomic pathology customers can export data entered via the CAP protocol worksheet utilizing SNOMED® coding.

Registry Integration
PathConnect accepts and HL7 message and outputs a NAACCR formatted file for incorporation into the registry database. Upon import, METRIQ creates a new abstract with the imported information for patients not previously identified, or updates an abstract for an existing patient. Integrating pathology information with Impac Software registry systems aids case finding efforts and provides a more complete abstract without redundant data entry.
 


The ability to transfer data electronically from Pathology expedites case finding and ensures accurate and consistent diagnosis and staging data.
