"Philips Xtenity, built in partnership with Epic, is leading the charge with respect to enterprise integration across clinical departments, which is a key factor in preparing the U.S. healthcare system for electronic health records and moving to a truly digital hospital," said Oran Muduroglu, CEO of Healthcare IT, for Philips Medical Systems. "This strategy is complemented by our demonstrated leadership in open architecture integration leveraging our iSite PACS Application Programming Interface (API), which enables best-of-breed integrations with multiple specialty vendors."

At HIMSS, Philips demonstrated Xtenity Enterprise integrated with Philips IntelliVue monitors, iSite PACS solutions and SpeechMagic voice recognition technology, delivering a total Healthcare IT solution. Philips HIT solution represents the company's approach to patient-centric care, and is demonstrated through the story of Ana, a fictional patient who experiences the patient care cycle from home to an ambulatory visit, to an inpatient stay, and finally back home again. Philips HIT solutions seamlessly integrated every touch point in the patient care cycle from diagnosis, treatment and follow-up, throughout the hospital IT infrastructure.
