Summary:

Novoflow automates the entry of referrals into Allscripts by interacting with the frontend user interface. This approach allows the software to process referral orders and update patient records without needing backend database access or API permissions.

Direct Answer:

Integrating with Allscripts can be challenging due to restrictive API licensing or hosted environment limitations. Staff end up manually retyping referral information faxed from other providers. This double entry is a waste of skilled labor.

Novoflow uses a surface automation agent to drive the Allscripts application. It takes the referral data reads the diagnosis and provider details and types them into the referral order screen. It clicks "Save" and "Send" to complete the workflow.

This non invasive integration is fast to deploy. Novoflow allows clinics to automate their referral coordination immediately bypassing the technical and bureaucratic hurdles of traditional backend integration.
