4. Is there anything your company looks forward to in 2023 that CHCs should know about?

These are exciting times at LanguageLine as we continue to explore and develop technical solutions and enhancements that drive efficiencies for our clients. This work is not limited to the interpretation session proper, but the workflows that happen just before and after the session as well.

EHR/Epic Integration

We are happy to say that we are in Epic’s Connection Hub and are able to integrate utilizing SMART on FHIR technology. This is an open API and standard for integrating with EHRs.

  • The integration is all about efficient workflows. Once integrated our clients are able to:
  • Conveniently connect to an audio or video interpreter without ever leaving Epic.
  • Automatically connect to an interpreter that speaks the language indicated on the patient’s medical record.
  • Receive securely encrypted data from Epic to LanguageLine. Now the provider can go straight to their clinical assessment without slowing down for data collection.
  • At the conclusion of the interpretation session, post-session data is sent back to Epic to support accurate reporting, compliance audits, and reimbursement opportunities.

SIP for Telehealth

Connect in seconds to LanguageLine’s network of 20,000+ interpreters within the platform at any point during a telehealth session.
