A patient registry for disease management identifies and tracks key information concerning identified patients enrolled in a care management program. The software tool makes the proactive tracking and outreach of population-based management feasible. It is highly focused on the limited patient demographic and clinical information needed for this purpose. Automated medical records are beyond the reach of most physician practices, and many of those in use lack the features necessary for population-based management. We believe the patient registry will meet both the needs for disease-management focused support and the budget of the typical physician practice.
