Breathing Life into Patient Data: How the ZAP Brings Care to Life with CPR
Most patient data today is flatlined, scattered across systems, incomplete, and often out of date.
At Zus, we built the Zus Aggregated Profile (ZAP) to change that. Starting with the Common Patient Record (CPR)–our unique way of resuscitating fragmented data–ZAP breathes life into the patient story, transforming it into a living, dynamic record that follows the patient wherever they need care.
We spent this summer spotlighting eight features that bring this record to life. But the ZAP is so much more than the sum of its parts. Each feature, from record location to condition enrichment, is an example of how our platform finds patient data, enriches it, and makes sense of it so care teams can focus on what they do best: caring for patients.
First, A record you can trust — CPR
Every strong care plan starts with a heartbeat: the Common Patient Record (CPR). By deduplicating, normalizing, and stitching together information from across sources, CPR transforms fragments into one unified record. No more guessing which version of “John Smith” is right — the pulse of the record is clear. Read more →
Keep the record alive
But a record that sits dormant quickly loses its value. With Intelligent Refresh, ZAP breathes continuous updates into the chart, proactively pulling in new labs, admissions, and prescriptions. The record stays alive, mirroring the patient’s real-world journey in real time.Read more →
Find the hidden signals
Even a living record needs to be complete. ZAP’s Record Locator Service digs deeper than traditional tools, layering in six search methods to find the records others miss. With 96% hit rates on record requests, it ensures nothing critical goes unseen — like uncovering a second breath of data. Read more →
Bring clarity to complex conditions
Chronic conditions often cloud the patient story with duplicative or inconsistent codes. Chronic Condition Enrichment cuts through the noise, translating across SNOMED, ICD-10, HCC, and more. It restores clarity so clinicians can act with confidence — illuminating the path forward like oxygen to a fogged chart. Read more →
See the whole episode of care
Hospitalizations are inflection points in a patient’s journey. With Hospitalization Summaries, ZAP detects 33% more admissions and discharges than prior vendors and attaches discharge notes to bring context. It’s the difference between a faint signal and a clear, strong rhythm in the record. Read more →
Untangle the medication maze
For many patients, prescriptions are the pulse of stability. Medication Journey Enrichment normalizes Rx codes and groups meds by active ingredient, making histories understandable at a glance. A chaotic list becomes a steady beat clinicians can trust. Read more →
Turn data into insights
A living record is powerful, but it must also be usable. Data Marts transform complex FHIR data into structured, analysis-ready tables in Snowflake, BigQuery, and Databricks. They give care teams a clear rhythm for population health and risk management, without heavy lifting. Read more →
Putting the record to work in every workflow
Data matters most when it reaches the bedside, the clinic, or the care manager’s screen. With the Embeddable ZAP, the living record flows seamlessly into the workflows clinicians already use. It’s not just data in a system — it’s a vital sign in the moment of care. Read more →
More than 8 features — a living record that never flatlines
These eight features highlight how ZAP brings patient data to life, but they’re only part of the story. ZAP does much more to ensure every clinician has a complete, current, and clear view of the patient.
Because CPR is just the beginning. What matters most is a record that keeps breathing, keeps evolving, and keeps care teams confident in every decision.
