Jonesboro, Ark.-based St. Bernards Healthcare went live with the Meditech Expanse EHR system, replacing Meditech's acute EHR and three disparate ambulatory systems across the four-hospital network.
The unified EHR system is designed to make it easier to access patient records and input data. Meditech's professional services team managed the installation of the new EHR system, according to a Jan. 18 Meditech news release.
"Instead of making changes and pulling data from multiple systems to meet regulatory requirements, we now can implement changes in one EHR with data readily available for tracking and trending in one solution," St. Bernards Chief Technology Officer Josh Melton said.
