Hawai`i's Health Care Future

Leading in Innovation and Quality

We see how healthy Hawai‘i can be. That’s why we’re transforming health care in Hawai‘i by bringing technology and teamwork together in innovative ways, making it better and more convenient for people to manage illness and be empowered to live well. It’s changing the face of health care in Hawai‘i. It’s creating the health care of tomorrow today.

As Hawai‘i’s largest health care provider, Hawai‘i Pacific Health is in the best position – and has a responsibility – to reinvent the way care is delivered. Hawai‘i Pacific Health has ambitious goals for this work: to improve quality, improve the patient experience, and reduce the total cost of health care.

Exciting progress is already being made and the result will be sustainable health care in Hawai‘i for generations to come.

Sustainable Health Care for Hawai‘i is about:

• An integrated care model focused around the needs of the patient.
• Improving quality because high-quality care is the most cost-effective care.
• Reimbursements that reward quality and better outcomes.
• Using our system wide electronic medical record to strengthen the physician/patient partnership and ensure patients get the best and appropriate care.
• Collaboration between hospitals, doctors, insurance companies and patients.
• Always doing what’s best for our patients, their families and our community as a whole.

Hawai‘i Pacific Health Leads the Way in Technology

Delivering exceptional health care today requires the use of technology. Hawai‘i Pacific Health is proud to have a fully-integrated electronic medical record system that connects its four hospitals and 49 clinics and service sites with our physicians and staff. As a result, Hawai‘i Pacific Health is in the top 5% of all health care systems and hospitals nationwide in the adoption of electronic medical records.

Coordinated care equates to quality care by allowing our medical team to see your entire health record at any of our facilities. Understanding your medical history helps us to determine the best plan of care to get you well.

Patients who regularly see our physicians can also access their medical record online with MyHealthAdvantage, which is accessible anytime, anywhere via the internet or through your iPhone or Android. MyHealthAdvantage enables you to communicate non-urgent medical questions to your physician, make appointments, refill prescriptions and view your lab and/or test results.

How can you help?

We can’t do this alone. In order for Hawai‘i to have a better health care future, all of us –health care providers, insurers, employers and you – must work together to keep our state healthy.

We ask that you take charge of your health by leading a healthy lifestyle, asking your doctor questions, and staying informed. Use tools like MyHealthAdvantage to manage your health. If your doctor does not offer MyHealthAdvantage, ask him or her to get connected to Hawai‘i Pacific Health.

We also want to hear from you about what we as health care providers can do better. Continue to communicate your needs to your team of health care providers.

We commit to keeping you updated on what we’re doing to create the health care of tomorrow today. We will provide you with the information you need to improve your own health, including our new magazine Powering Your Health.
