Deborah Upgrades its Electronic Health Records System

New Meditech EXPANSE Platform Places Patients Front and Center in the Care Continuum Spectrum

Deborah Heart and Lung Center announced that it has launched EXPANSE, the next generation of its Meditech electronic health record (EHR) system.

EXPANSE builds on Deborah’s robust EHR platform by seamlessly and fully integrating Deborah’s inpatient and outpatient areas, simplifying user access, personalizing clinician screen lay-outs to target specific patient information they need to see, and ensuring smooth patient handoffs between hospital departments.

“This next generation electronic records system has been among the most highly rated system by the country’s top software evaluator,” said Rich Temple, Deborah’s Vice President, Chief Information Officer. “And although from an IT perspective, the new features, streamlined services, and enhanced capability and functionality will produce smoother clinical operations, the driver for us is that this system will open up the ‘big picture’ for each patient and will allow our clinicians to treat the whole patient under a ‘one patient, one record’ approach.”

He added: “Creating a behind-the-scenes EHR that will support and enhance patient care is ultimately the end goal for our organization.”
