              Boca Healthlink Connects Patients of Boca Regional, Northwell Health

              January 21, 2016

              Northwell Health (formerly North Shore-LIJ Health System) and Boca Raton Regional Hospital are encouraging thousands of New York area residents with second homes in or near Boca Raton to enroll in Boca HealthLink Exchange, a program that enables healthcare providers to share medical records of patients served by Northwell facilities and Boca Regional.

              The first-of-its-kind service ensures that Northwell patients and their families who travel south during the winter months will experience the same level of world-class patient care and customer service in South Florida as they are accustomed to in the New York area. The HealthLink initiative is an outgrowth of the affiliation between Northwell and Boca Regional that began in 2014.

              Patients who enroll in Boca HealthLink Exchange and pre-authorize the sharing of records can receive the following services from both organizations:

              • A Boca Raton Regional Hospital care navigator onsite to ensure patients needs are met in Florida
              • Physician referrals and concierge appointment scheduling in Boca Raton available Monday Friday, 9:00am - 4:00pm
              • Availability of Northwell medical records in Florida, and enhanced communication between providers at Northwell and Boca Raton Regional Hospital
              • New York Call Center assistance available 24/7

              Our patients want to experience the highest quality of life, whether theyre enjoying New York during the summer or taking pleasure in the warmth of Florida during the winter months, said Michael J. Dowling, Northwell Healths President and CEO. Northwell Healths relationship with Boca Raton Regional Hospital provides better continuity of care for the thousands of patients who split time between New York and Florida. Patients enrolled in Boca HealthLink know that their health records are readily available at both health systems.

              Mr. Dowling said Boca Regionals exceptional programs and services make the hospital an excellent match with Northwell Health, which operates 21 hospitals and nearly 450 outpatient practices, which cover a service area with more than eight million people in the New York metropolitan area. Were partnered with an organization that shares our level of commitment to patient care, he said. Boca Regional, which again has been listed as a U.S. News & World Report Top Ranked Regional Hospital, is an institution that we recommend to our patients with great confidence.

              It is a privilege for us to collaborate with Northwell Health in the care of their patients, said Jerry Fedele, President and CEO at Boca Regional. We take great pride in a healthcare system of their stature placing its trust in us.
