Jon Elwell, CEOBringing forth a revolution in the healthcare industry with its innovative systems is Kno2®. A prominent healthcare solutions provider, Kno2 brings to the table state-of-the-art Interoperability as a Service™ (IaaS) that allows healthcare providers to connect to multiple methods of exchange in a single integrated platform. With Kno2’s IaaS, providers can share information through cloud faxing, direct secure messaging, patient query, referral networks and HIE connectivity. “Our core mission is to eliminate antiquated fax machines from the healthcare realm and deliver a unique opportunity to minimize cost, increase productivity, and improves the patient experience,” says Jon Elwell, CEO of Kno2.
Most of the organizations typically consider interoperability as a complex subject, hard to implement, expensive, and largely inaccessible. Kno2 effectively overcomes this hurdle by providing immediate access through their subscription and cloud-based platform to all national and major health information networks. With Kno2’s IaaS, providers and their staff can upload medical data and documentation right into their system in a matter of seconds. The information is then packaged up in Kno2 and submitted across one or more of the integrated health information networks based upon the preference of the receiving provider.
In order to deliver better visibility, clarity, and guidance to an organization’s path to interoperability, Kno2’s IaaS is integrated with tools and analytics that help facilities to view the progress towards interoperable exchange and away from fax.
Our core mission is to eliminate antiquated fax machines from the healthcare realm and deliver a unique opportunity to minimize cost, increase productivity, and improve the patient experience
As part of their service, Kno2’s platform also allows organizations to optimize the key daily workflows while reducing inefficiencies.
While HIPAA compliance remains a top priority in the medical arena, Kno2 assures high-level of data security by protecting and encrypting all patient and provider information within HIPAA-compliant data centers provided by Microsoft and adhering to the rules of engagement on each of the networks to which they are connected.
Elwell narrates how Kno2 was the solution of choice for Vision Source, a large network of private practice optometrists, to deliver interoperability in vision care. When Vision Source decided to help patients at risk with diabetes, their in-depth search for healthcare technology came to an end with Kno2. Kno2’s IaaS offering helped them establish thriving collaborative relationships with health systems, health plans, and physician groups. With Kno2 technology, Vision Source’s practices became the recipients of electronic referrals of patients that needed access to high-quality eyecare. Vision Source’s move to electronic referrals and reporting facilitated enhanced and consistent workflows with increased productivity.
The future holds even brighter prospects for Kno2 as the company intends to enhance their analytics and social networks to empower providers with better forms of information exchange. There are also plans to strengthen their referral networks to add value to their subscriber base.
Kno2 and CareEvolution Unite To Spearhead the Next Era of Clinical Information Exchange
Tuesday, October 17, 2023
BOISE, Idaho, -- In a bold move intended to accelerate the adoption of healthcare communication, industry leaders Kno2 and CareEvolution proudly announce a strategic partnership to revolutionize the exchange of clinical information.
Combining Kno2, the largest health information network, with CareEvolution’s data enrichment technology and state-of-the-art FHIR capabilities, the partnership will redefine how clinical information is shared and used at scale, further enabling Healthcare's Digital Ecosystem. This collaboration bridges the gap between comprehensive data exchange and customizable communication, addressing the need for a more streamlined, efficient, and targeted approach to healthcare information exchange that delivers enriched, ‘decision ready’ clinical information when and where you want it.
By integrating CareEvolution’s innovative data technologies into Kno2's communication platform, health information technology (HIT) platforms, from EHRs to digital health solutions, can quickly assimilate and use discrete, harmonized, and enriched patient information. This accelerates HIT vendors time-to-market, and empowers healthcare providers to access, share, and utilize relevant and critical patient data.
“By uniting the strengths of Kno2 and CareEvolution, we are leading the future of healthcare communication and accelerating our evolution from a great technology company to a meaningful and impactful technology company." said Jon Elwell, CEO of Kno2.
"Our vision is to democratize clinical data exchange to empower healthcare professionals with clinical information at the point of care for informed decision-making, enhancing patient safety, improving operational efficiency and clinical outcomes, truly enabling collaborative care,” said Kno2’s Chief Health Office, Dr. Peter Schoch. “Being Kno2 ConnectedTM – now more than ever – gives healthcare organizations the freedom to unlock their potential."
The impact of the partnership will be felt immediately through data technologies that bring elegant answers to data usability challenges felt by most technology vendors and providers. Kno2 and CareEvolution will quickly expand the partnership through focused offerings to critical audiences, including post-acute and emergency medical services. In addition, with a shift to home-based services in healthcare, Kno2 will expand its network to include patient generated and reported data from wearables and other devices through integration with CareEvolution’s MyDataHelps technology, seizing the opportunity to access and distill patient reported/generated data as never before.
“The explosion of data liquidity has created the unintended consequence of simply moving more data faster, putting a burden of high cost and inefficiency on those that need data to be trusted, harmonized and ‘decision ready,’” said Trent Gavazzi, Principal at CareEvolution. “Our collaboration with Kno2 will refine the quality and usability of clinical information that flows across the rapidly growing healthcare digital ecosystem.”
“Together, we're reshaping communication norms and providing healthcare professionals with tools to facilitate trusted, data-driven care delivery to elevate patient outcomes and enable providers to practice at the top of their license."
As an applicant QHIN, this partnership will accelerate Kno2’s already differentiated Communication API, making it easier to use and get exactly what is needed at the point of care to drive real transformation clinically and operationally.
In a rapidly evolving healthcare industry, the strategic partnership between Kno2 and CareEvolution demonstrates the profound impact of innovation and shared commitment to improving provider experience, transforming care delivery, advancing new care models, and improving patient outcomes. These visionary organizations are ushering in an era where stateless, usable, targeted, and on-demand data is the new norm. This visionary journey continues towards the true democratization of clinical data to empower every clinician, in any care setting, to evolve and transform our healthcare system.

Kno2’s new MuleSoft Certified Connector for Salesforce helps healthcare providers create digital experiences, faster
BOISE, Idaho, — Kno2,announced a new MuleSoft Certified Connector for Kno2, which is accessible in the MuleSoft Anypoint Exchange and will allow companies to simplify integration to Kno2 Connector – Mule 4.
With Kno2’s MuleSoft certified connector, Salesforce Health Cloud users can connect to their healthcare ecosystem through the Kno2 network, one of seven federally Qualified Health Information Networks (QHIN) named by the Office of the National Coordinator (ONC) successfully implemented under the TEFCA framework. This connectivity will streamline patient onboarding and improve patient experience by retrieving critical patient information at the time of registration and scheduling.
Product Specifics
Kno2’s MuleSoft Certified Connector allows customers to streamline connectivity between Kno2’s patented healthcare Communication APIs and their target systems allowing access to national frameworks, connected organizations, EHRs, and other digital health platforms, improving data connectivity and interoperability.
Customers can leverage pre-developed assets from MuleSoft’s Accelerator for Healthcare to quickly establish integrations between Health Cloud and Kno2. Current use cases supported by the accelerator include patient onboarding and exchanging data with known and trusted standards across national frameworks, directly within Health Cloud.
With the Kno2 MuleSoft Connector, organizations can expedite growth, reduce time spent on repetitive tasks, and create efficient workflows and integrations.
“Siloed data across many different systems at a healthcare organization have made it difficult to create a unified patient profile and address increasing patient and member demands,” said Amit Khanna, SVP & GM for Health at Salesforce. “With QHIN, the ONC is implementing a core nationwide interoperability framework for a more secure data exchange. The Kno2 and Salesforce Health Cloud integration will help healthcare organizations bring connected and harmonized clinical data right into their application workflows, giving them a single, unified profile that enables personalized experiences for every patient or member.”
MuleSoft helps businesses and developers transform into customer-first companies by enabling a single customer view across hundreds of systems and touchpoints using one unified platform. With MuleSoft, organizations can empower no-code and pro-code teams to build integrations and automations across any system, connect data for a single customer view, and discover and govern every API. The result is empowered business users who can do more with less, quickly creating workflows and integrations that drive efficient growth and faster time to value while removing time spent on repetitive tasks and complex integrations.
