NAME OF NETWORK:
Pointe Coupee Parish Health Information Technology
Partnership
Name of Grantee
Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals
Bureau of Primary Care and Rural Health
Principal Investigator:
Margaret Shipman, State Office of Rural Health Director
Address: 628 North 4th Street, 8th Floor Baton
Rouge, LA 70802
Phone: (225) 342-1889
FAX: (225) 342-5839
Project Purpose
The purpose of the proposed network is to fully implement functional electronic
health records within each network partner organization and to enable
appropriate sharing of health information among all partner organizations.
The primary partners include a critical access hospital (CAH), home health
and hospice agency (HHA), two locations of a federally qualified health
center (FQHC), four rural health clinics (RHC), one community clinic,
two private physician practices and a 761-bed tertiary care center (TCC).
The network will allow qualified providers to access the patient data
located in any and all of the network member systems.
Outcome Measure/Expectations
The objective of this grant is unique in that it is built on the premise
of data sharing not data exchange.
- Implement a functional Electronic Medical Record for each of the partners
- Develop a Community Portal that integrates systems at the network
level. The portal will employ a federated data model that allows
each network member system to access and present data without having
to move data from its local database.
- The Community Portal will present data from all partner applications
via a single web-based portlet which will create a data view specific
to the clinician’s workflow
Service Area
The Pointe Coupee HIT Network will serve the Pointe Coupee Parish service
area, which is located in south central Louisiana approximately 1 hour
from the capital of Baton Rouge. Agricultural production is a mainstay
of the economy. Pointe Coupee is one of the most diverse agricultural
parishes in the state. Close to 165,000 acres of land are used to farm
cotton, sugarcane, soybeans, corn, milo, wheat, cattle, hay, vegetables,
rice, crawfish and pecans. The 2006 estimated population for Pointe
Coupee Parish was 22,648 (U.S. Census, 2007). The largest town in Pointe
Coupee Parish is New Roads (home to Pointe Coupee General Hospital), with
close to 5,000 residents. Only 69% of the population aged 25 years
and older has earned a high school diploma. The unemployment rate is high,
with only 55% of residents at age 16 or older in the labor force. Consequently,
23% of all individuals and 19% of all families in the parish are below
the poverty level. Over 40% of area residents receive some form
of public assistance and 27% of the community is enrolled in Medicaid.
