TORONTO, ONTARIO — (Marketwired) — 02/10/15 — (HOW), one of Canada–s leading e-health software solutions providers for optimizing patient care and cost outcomes, announced today a finalized agreement with , Canada–s foremost provider of clinical decision support tools.
The partnership will see HOW–s award-winning how2trak® software integrated as a third party application into Think Research Group–s cloud-based platform EntryPoint, immediately making it accessible to the Group–s network of 300 North American health care organizations.
How2trak® is available as a mobile app on all iOS and Android mobile devices. In real time, the how2trak® mobile app analyzes complex data sets to empower nurses and physicians with more knowledge to help them improve patient care and dramatically reduce costs.

At the point of care specifically, the how2trak® mobile app helps nurses and physicians understand if a patient–s condition is improving or worsening.
Health Outcomes CEO Corrine McIsaac said of the announcement, “We–re incredibly excited to be working with the Think Research team to instantly expose our platform to such a large North American network of organizations. Having developed an industry leading wound care platform, backed by the most extensive wound care database in Canada, HOW is now seeing rapid market adoption validating the work undertaken. With HOW clients achieving $4-5 in savings for each $1 of spend, we believe this level of growth can, and will, continue for the long term.”
