SERVICE OVERVIEW
Population Health Explorer, Connie’s encounter notification service, provides an easy-to-use interface for clinicians to access a worklist of notifications on patients’ health care encounters. Connie matches patient demographic data from the participating organization’s patient panel to admit-discharge-transfer (ADT) messages sent from Connie participating organizations that provide outpatient, inpatient, and emergency services. When a patient receives care at a Connie participating facility, the patient’s encounter is displayed in our Connie Portal dashboard, with easy access to details about the patient's care during that encounter.
Organizations can customize Explorer to receive vital alerts on critical patient populations. Explorer allows care coordinators to efficiently manage their patient population and provide timely care.
Population Health Explorer is a core Connie Alert service; included when onboarding to the Connie Portal.

USER STORIES
“I am a care coordinator at a health system. Using Population Health Explorer, I have a more comprehensive understanding of our patients’ inpatient and outpatient encounters across the healthcare landscape in Connecticut. With this information, we can provide more immediate follow-up care—preventing readmissions. Using the status setting, I can coordinate with colleagues, so we are not following up on the same patients.”
“I’m a mental health provider. I am often not aware when my client has an emergency room encounter. Having this information can be particularly critical if my client is experiencing a mental health crisis. Through Population Health Explorer, I am notified when they are admitted and can intervene within an ED visit when needed. My patients benefit greatly from having a known and trusted provider aware and involved when they are experiencing a crisis.”
“As a primary care provider at a small practice, I rely on Connie to help me support my patients’ transition of care when they have been discharged from an in-patient stay. I can get patients into the office for a transition of care visit to clear up any confusion over medications and decrease the risk of a therapeutic disruption. I can filter my list to focus on my most vulnerable patients to prioritize my workload.”
