Middle Park Medical Center today announced
it has selected Healthland as its healthcare information system (HIS) partner to
improve patient care and hospital performance. The hospital, a 19-bed facility
serving all of Grand County and a portion of northern Summit County, will
implement the Healthland's secure electronic health records (EHR) solution for
its critical access hospital and family practice clinic in Kremmling, its family
practice clinic in Granby as well as its new medical facility in Granby upon its
January 2012 grand
opening. "Our decision to move forward with an EHR solution will
transform the way we deliver community healthcare," said Cole White, Middle Park
Medical Center Chief Financial Officer. We consider this purchase a long-term
investment to enhance our quality of care and improve our processes, all while
elevating patient satisfaction." An electronic health record is
secure electronic documentation of patient health information generated in any
healthcare setting within the healthcare system. The record includes important
information such as: patient demographics, progress notes, medical history,
medications, immunizations and laboratory data. An EHR solution enables
healthcare providers to quickly, easily and securely access a comprehensive view
of demographic, historical and clinical patient information from all care
settings. The system's unique single patient chart is accessible in real time,
creating operational efficiencies, improved departmental and organizational
communication, and reduced cost by more effectively managing patient records and
optimizing reimbursement while ensuring regulatory
compliance. "Eventually, patients will leave their family
practice doctor's office not only having a summary of the visit, but also an
estimate of their bill." said Marie Johnston, health information managment
manager. In case of an emergency room visit, the doctor will have quick access
to important patient health information which may enhance
treatment. Middle Park Medical Center, Kremmling has already
begun the first phase of its EHR implementation, beginning with training. The
hospital, (formerly known as Kremmling Memorial Hospital) and it's clinics,
(Timberline Family Practice in Granby & Mountain Valley Medical Center in
Kremmling), plan to go live with the EHR by the end of the
year. Healthland's solutions are developed specifically for
small community and critical access hospitals. In addition to satisfying new
government regulations regarding adoption of electronic health records, this EHR
solution will deliver the results clients have come to expect - providing new
efficiencies and opportunities to improve patient care, while cutting costs that
directly impact the bottom line.###
