With best-in-class interoperability, iKnowMed provides you and your staff up-to-date information when you need it and empowers you to make more informed choices at the point of care.

Developed in collaboration with oncologists, iKnowMed delivers:

Clear Value Plus^SM: Decision Support for Evidence-Based Cancer Care

Clear Value Plus is a clinical decision support tool that highlights evidence-based treatment options and provides clinical and financial information at the point of care for physicians and practice staff.

The application presents Value Pathways powered by NCCN^TM and NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology® (NCCN Guidelines®) within the clinical workflow—offering integrated financial information, real-time reporting and benchmarking, and the ability to interface with your electronic health record (EHR).

Practice Insights^SM: Oncology Practice Performance Analytics Tool

The Practice Insights performance analytics tool helps oncology practices analyze data generated throughout the patient care cycle to gain actionable insights into quality initiatives, value-based care programs, performance metrics, productivity measures, and peer/industry benchmarks.

Patient identification for clinical trials
Visibility into drug utilization
Oncology clinical pathways compliance based on NCCN Guidelines®

Qualified Clinical Data Registry (QCDR)

McKesson has received approval from CMS to participate in the MIPS 2024 year as a QCDR. As a CMS-approved QCDR, McKesson can collect and report clinical data on behalf of clinicians for both MIPS and custom QCDR quality measures (PDF, 198 KB) to drive improvements in quality and cost of care. The designation enables iKnowMed℠ users to efficiently submit data directly to CMS without engaging a separate registry vendor, streamlining data submission and minimizing the need for additional administrative resources.

My Care Plus^SM: Oncology Patient Portal

Through My Care Plus, practices that use iKnowMed EHR or iKnowMed Generation 2 can give patients secure online access to their clinical information. Patients can then view their personal health record (PHR) via an easy-to-navigate, customized portal account. As a result, they gain a better understanding of and take a more active role in their care.

My Care Plus makes it easier for your practice to:

Meet Meaningful Use objectives (MIPS)
Qualify for associated incentives for relaying patient information electronically
Engage patients, as well as family members and caregivers, in real time
Answer non-urgent questions through the secure messaging and broadcast messaging feature
Provide patients access to their comprehensive care plan, health information and condition/medication education from leading cancer resources
