The forthcoming EHR platform will integrate Oracle’s clinical AI agent and voice-activated tools, as well as Oracle’s Health Data Intelligence (HDI), to streamline workflow for healthcare providers. 

Oracle Health has announced plans to introduce a next-generation electronic health record (EHR) platform in 2025, aiming to modernize healthcare with embedded artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics. 

The forthcoming EHR platform will integrate Oracle’s clinical AI agent and voice-activated tools, as well as Oracle’s Health Data Intelligence (HDI), to streamline workflow for healthcare providers. 

Further, this platform will offer advanced search capabilities and patient data insights, enhancing care management through AI-powered automation. With data drawn from 300 sources, the platform aims to facilitate better analytics and benchmarking capabilities.

Seema Verma, Executive Vice President and General Manager at Oracle Health and Life Sciences, noted that this shift aims to reimagine EHR systems. 

"This will no longer be a record-keeping system but instead a dynamic, evolving system of intelligence that spurs action to ensure better patient outcomes," Verma said.

Highlighting the platform's adaptability, she explained that Oracle’s new EHR would move away from the “one-size-fits-all” model. According to Verma, the redesigned EHR platform will "empower providers to create personalized workflows that adapt to change," supporting a shift toward precision health capabilities and value-based care.

Oracle’s vision for the new EHR includes an AI-driven clinical assistant, described as “a doctors' best resident” by Verma. She added, “For providers, it’s not a scribe or an assistant. For administrators, it’s their most productive analyst. For researchers, it’s their best trial recruiter.” 

Further, Verma emphasized that the upcoming EHR is not a mere update of Cerner’s legacy system. “You can’t bolt new innovation onto something built in the 1990s,” she remarked, distancing Oracle’s platform from older technologies and indicating a more advanced, purpose-built system.

Larry Ellison, Oracle’s Chairman and Chief Technology Officer, previously outlined how Oracle has been gradually upgrading Cerner’s Millennium system by moving it to the cloud, reinforcing Oracle’s commitment to healthcare digital transformation. 

Oracle has also been enhancing its Health Data Intelligence platform, which was formerly known as HealtheIntent, to offer expanded analytics capabilities through cloud services.

Shifting Towards Value-Based Care with Precision Health

The new EHR platform’s AI functionality aims to infuse the entire clinical workflow with automation and insights. 

“Today’s EHRs dictate workflows that force providers to deliver care in a one-size-fits-all approach. The new EHR will empower providers to create personalized workflows that adapt to change,” Verma stated.

The platform’s capabilities also extend to supporting value-based care operations and are set to include an Oracle command center, enabling providers to form tailored care plans that are based on precision health capabilities. HDI’s longitudinal patient record, which consolidates data from diverse sources, will serve as a critical feature in providing comprehensive patient insights.
