• eClinicalWorks Announces Prizma; The Health Information Search Engine

    Prizma presents data from various networks to create a complete longitudinal view of the patient record

    Nashville, TN – October 5, 2018 – eClinicalWorks®, a leader in healthcare IT solutions, today announced the debut of Prizma, a health information search engine, to facilitate care across networks. By coordinating information from interoperability networks, such as CommonWell and Carequality, as well as payers such as CMS Blue Button® 2.0 API, Prizma will establish one longitudinal view to provide the critical information providers need to make informed health decisions. Prizma is integrated directly into the eClinicalWorks Electronic Health Record (EHR), providing seamless access for providers, ensuring complete and accurate patient information at the point of care.

    eClinicalWorks developed Prizma as the solution to establish a health information search engine to ensure providers have access to health data from various care settings organized into one point of care, creating a longitudinal view of the patient record. Prizma includes sophisticated search capabilities, and displays patient data in a format in which physicians can make informed decisions. By empowering providers, Prizma improves the delivery of care and helps promote better health outcomes.

    eClinicalWorks continues to enhance the provider experience with seamless integration with the Carequality Interoperability Framework and CommonWell Health Alliance®. Approximately 2,400 hospital nodes and 40,000 ambulatory care settings nationwide are already connected through these initiatives. Exchange of health information continues to increase, with over 7.1 million documents transferred by eClinicalWorks providers in September between the networks.

    “The internet contains a wealth of information, and search engines play a critical role by organizing and presenting relevant information. Currently, health information is scattered throughout various care settings,” said Girish Navani, CEO and cofounder of eClinicalWorks. “Prizma is the solution that very effectively searches, organizes, and presents relevant patient data, revolutionizing the availability of information and transforming how it is displayed.”

  • CHIME-KLAS Survey Measures Providers’ Confidence in Medical Device Security Programs

    WASHINGTON, D.C, Oct. 5, 2018 – A survey of healthcare IT executives found that 18 percent of provider organizations had medical devices impacted by malware or ransomware in the last 18 months, although few of these incidents resulted in compromised protected health information or an audit by the Office for Civil Rights, U.S Department of Health and Human Services. Only 39 percent of respondents said they were very confident or confident that their current strategy protects patient safety and prevents disruptions in care. Although organizations are making headway developing and maturing their overall security programs, progress has been slow, particularly when it comes to securing medical devices.

    The survey was conducted by KLAS Research in collaboration with the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) to examine the current state of the medical device security industry and identify best practices. The results were scheduled to be presented today at the CHIME Advocacy Summit in Washington, D.C., and will be available free to providers.

    “Unsecured and poorly secured medical devices put patients at risk of great harm if those devices are hacked,” said Russell Branzell, president and CEO of CHIME. “In recent years, that risk has increased exponentially as devices in hospitals and health organizations have become more and more interconnected. Our members are looking for ways to safeguard these devices, but they need resources and support to be effective.”

    “Safeguarding medical devices requires a joint effort from both provider organizations and device manufacturers,” said Adam Gale, president of KLAS. “Many providers have the basic building blocks for a general security program in place and are making progress, although it is difficult and time consuming, toward developing a mature program. We also are seeing some manufacturers being more proactive and accountable.”

    A total of 148 chief information officers (CIOs), chief security information officers (CISOs), chief technology officers (CTOs) and other professionals at provider organizations were interviewed about their medical device security programs, the challenges they face in securing medical devices and how they are tackling these challenges. Most of the interviews were with hospital and integrated delivery network employees although some respondents worked in midsize to large physician practices.

    Medical devices were defined as “biomedical devices used by healthcare-delivery organizations in the pursuit of patient care.” This definition excludes patient use devices (such as pacemakers) as well as non-medical devices (such as laptops and tablets.)

    According to the benchmarking report, “Medical Device Security 2018,” respondents cited patient safety as their top concern with unsecured medical devices. Larger organizations were more likely to be targeted by cyber criminals, but they also were more likely to have mature security programs. Organizations that were confident about their medical security programs cited solid security policies and procedures as the leading reason for their confidence, followed by strong technology. Those that lacked confidence in their medical device security cited lack of manufacturer support as the top reason, followed by lack of asset and inventory visibility.

    Overall, 96 percent identified manufacturer-related factors as a root cause of medical device security issues. Nearly all respondents reported struggles related to out-of-date operating systems or the inability to patch devices, which are major security risks. On average, respondents said the manufacturers for almost one-third of their medical devices have told them that they cannot be patched.

    The survey did not ask about the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) role in medical device security, but many respondents raised it as an issue. Almost two-thirds said manufacturers blame FDA policies, claiming the policies prevent them from making devices more secure. About a third said FDA policies are unclear, giving manufacturers ways to skirt around responsibility and a third said that even when policies are clear, the FDA doesn’t hold manufacturers accountable.

    Internal factors also were a concern. Some 76 percent reported that their resources are insufficient and too strained to adequately secure medical devices. Almost half cited poor asset and inventory visibility as a top organizational factor, followed by ambiguous security ownership and responsibility.

    Although many remained concerned about their medical device security, they also reported improvements to security programs compared to a year ago. Twenty-seven percent considered their security programs to be fully functional and 47 percent said they were developed or starting to function in 2018, compared to 16 percent and 41 percent, respectively, in 2017.

  • Intermountain CIO Marc Probst Wins CHIME Federal Public Policy Award

    ANN ARBOR, MI, Oct. 4, 2018 – Marc Probst, a nationally recognized healthcare IT leader who has served on the influential Federal Healthcare Information Technology Policy Committee, was named the winner of the 2018 College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME) Federal Public Policy Award for CIO Leadership. The honor was announced today at the CHIME Advocacy Summit in Washington, D.C.
     
    The Federal Public Policy Award for CIO Leadership recognizes a CHIME member who has demonstrated leadership in educating Congress and administration officials at the federal level about the value of health IT and its role in patient care.   
     
    Probst is CIO and vice president at Intermountain Healthcare, a not-for-profit health system based in Salt Lake City. He served as the chair of CHIME’s Public Policy Steering Committee (PSC) in 2017; chair of the CHIME Board of Trustees in 2016 and chair of the CHIME Foundation Board in 2017. As a member of the PSC, he has offered testimony on Capitol Hill, presented at several briefings in Washington, D.C, and represented the CHIME membership in numerous other ways. He also is a popular faculty member at CHIME’s Healthcare CIO Boot Camps.
    “Marc always puts the patient at the center in any healthcare IT initiative or policy involving healthcare IT,” said Liz Johnson, chair of the PSC and chief innovation officer of Acute Care Hospitals & Applied Clinical Informatics at Tenet Healthcare Corporation. “He has been a champion of two issues that are priorities for our members: creating standards for exchanging patient information and having a reliable, safe and accurate patient ID protocol. And, he dedicated countless hours as a member of the Health IT Policy Committee, providing thought leadership as the government embarked on regulating the use of EHRs and health IT. We all benefited from Marc’s willingness to tackle some of the toughest issues head on.”
     
    Probst has more than 30 years of experience working in healthcare IT planning, design, development deployment, operation, and speeding innovation to clinical practice. At Intermountain, his core competencies are systems design and implementation, strategic planning, system consolidation and project management. His major focus has been in healthcare, managed care, eCommerce and healthcare payer services. He and his team have played a key role in numerous innovative programs at Intermountain that use health IT and analytics to increase the quality of patient care and lower costs.
     
    “It is an honor to receive this award from my peers at CHIME,” Probst said. “It is especially meaningful to have this happen now, at our first CHIME Advocacy Summit. The PSC and CHIME’s public policy team have come a long way in just 10 years, and it has been a pleasure to be part of the transformation.”
     
    Prior to joining Intermountain Healthcare, Probst was a partner at Deloitte Consulting and Ernst and Young. In addition to his volunteer work at CHIME, he is a board member with the University of Utah School of Nursing and the Utah Food Bank. He earned a degree in finance at the University of Utah and a master’s degree in business management at George Washington University.

  • Hackensack Meridian Health Expands Vocera Care Experience Solutions

    Experience improvement strategy exceeds goals for patient and staff engagement and satisfaction

     

    San Jose, CA – October 3, 2018 – Vocera Communications, Inc. (NYSE:VCRA), a recognized leader in clinical communication and workflow solutions, today announced that Hackensack Meridian Health deployed Vocera Rounds in JFK Medical Center, making it the 10th hospital in its network to implement the mobile rounding solution.

    In 2016, clinical and experience leaders at Hackensack Meridian Health selected Vocera Rounds to improve, monitor and measure patient and team member engagement at five locations. Since that time, the 16-hospital system has doubled its deployment of the solution. By engaging patients face-to-face and using digital technology to capture their feedback, comments or requests can be escalated to the right care team member, tracked and closed in real time.

    “We aim to be life years ahead of other health care providers, and to do that means staying at the forefront of human-centered technology,” said Elizabeth Paskas, RN, Vice President of Experience, Innovation and Consumer Services at Hackensack Meridian Health. “Vocera Rounds has standardized the practice of rounding across our network and helped elevate our patient, family and team member experience.”

    A few months after implementing Vocera Rounds, Bayshore Medical Center significantly increased the number of patients who received rounds from a nurse leader. The hospital improved the percentage of inpatients receiving at least one round by a clinical leader from 18 to 95 percent, exceeding the health network’s goal of 90 percent. Bayshore Medical Center also increased its “likely to recommend” scores by four percent, according to the most recent patient satisfaction survey. 

    Hackensack Meridian Health uses the mobile solution for non-clinical rounds, too. Leaders of Guest Services, Nutritional Services and Environmental Services in many of the network’s hospitals round on patients to find out how their departments are doing. They use real-time feedback from patients and family members to quickly address issues and recognize high-performing team members. The rounding solution provides valuable analytics and insights into trends that help hospital leaders identify top performers and opportunities for improvement. The solution also flags patient names when additional follow-up is required during or after a hospital stay.

    Beyond patient experience, Hackensack Meridian Health is using Vocera Rounds to increase staff engagement and satisfaction. Hospital leaders also use the app and its data tracking capabilities to meet employees where they work, capture their voices, discuss processes, identify teaching opportunities and celebrate success.   

    Additionally, one of Hackensack Meridian Health’s academic medical centers, Jersey Shore University Medical Center, is using a second Vocera Care Experience solution to improve patient engagement and education. The stroke team at this location uses the Vocera Good to Go® solution to record patient discharge instructions and make them available to patients after they leave the hospital to help increase care plan compliance.

     “Hackensack Meridian Health is a high-reliability organization,” said Brent Lang, president and CEO of Vocera. “Using human-centered technology like Vocera Rounds and Good to Go, hospital leaders are actively engaging patients, families and care team members in the successful management of high-quality, safe, reliable and compassionate care experiences.”

  • ProMedica Health System to Deploy PeriGen Artificial Intelligence Solution Focused on Improving Outcomes in Childbirth

    System Targets Preventable Morbidity and Mortality in Childbirth

     

    Cary, NC and Toledo, OH – Oct. 2, 2018 – PeriGen, an innovator of perinatal early warning systems, today announced that ProMedica, a not-for-profit integrated health care organization serving 30 states, plans to deploy the company’s PeriWatch™ VigilanceTM, an artificial intelligence-based maternal-fetal early warning system (EWS), in all of its labor and delivery hospitals. Vigilance is designed to help clinicians identify troubling trends earlier and more consistently than manual assessments and creates a common language for nurses and physicians to assess cases. 

    The artificial intelligence-driven technology, developed by PeriGen, is the latest chapter in ProMedica’s commitment to lead improvement in Ohio and Michigan’s infant and maternal mortality and morbidity rates, which currently rank near the bottom of the nation. The software is designed to be implemented in a matter of weeks and brings an unprecedented level of monitoring to the labor and delivery floor. It does not require replacing any current systems already in place.

    “While we invest significantly in training our nurses, we feel this technology will enhance our ability to provide the safest care possible,” said Kent Bishop, MD, Chief Medical Officer for ProMedica Physicians and Acute Care. “Using AI to help our nurses assess and consistently identify irregularities is so logical, we considered trying to build our own solution; during our research we found a proven system that we can partner with.”

    Matthew Sappern, CEO of PeriGen, said that ProMedica’s commitment to patient safety is profound: “ProMedica has taken a very visible leadership role in combatting infant and maternal morbidity and mortality and aspires to continuous improvement in this service line.”

  • Santa Rosa Consulting Chosen by Berkshire Health Systems to Provide Meditech Expanse Implementation Services

    Franklin, TN – October 2, 2018 – Santa Rosa Consulting, Inc., a leading provider of management consulting and information technology services for the healthcare industry and a MEDITECH READY-certified firm, announced today that Berkshire Health Systems, a leading not-for-profit provider of superior and comprehensive healthcare services, has selected the firm to lead its MEDITECH Expanse system implementation.

    “Our partnership with Berkshire confirms Santa Rosa’s position as an industry leading EHR implementation provider,” said Mike Ragan, president of Santa Rosa Consulting. “We are especially excited to expand our presence in MEDITECH’s home state of Massachusetts to support this large-scale implementation effort. Berkshire is the region’s leading provider and we are proud to be a part of this critical initiative, to not only support the implementation of this advanced technology, but to support Berkshire’s continued efforts to improve the overall patient experience.”

    Santa Rosa began working with Berkshire during the vendor selection process, to assist with identifying the right system to support their clinical, operational and IT needs across multiple locations. In addition to the initial assessment, Santa Rosa developed a detailed implementation budget to address hardware, software, staffing, implementation, training costs, and to develop an implementation plan for both its acute and ambulatory practices. In the next phase, Santa Rosa will oversee all steps of the MEDITECH Expanse implementation from system design and build through go-live support.

    “Santa Rosa provided the level of creativity and flexibility we needed to make an EHR selection. The team has been willing to go the extra mile for us, and it only made sense that we continue to work with them for the implementation,” said Bill Young, chief information officer at Berkshire Health Systems. “We’re confident in Santa Rosa’s system knowledge and experience across ambulatory and acute environments to successfully lead this project.”

    By selecting Santa Rosa for the MEDITECH Expanse implementation, Berkshire will benefit from a dedicated team that will:

     – Provide an implementation design that is based on optimized workflows and incorporate quality improvement
       methods
     – Provide an expedited system build supported by expanded test capacity via automated testing solutions
     – Advance training via a combination of Sedona eLearning and classroom sessions
     – Optimize the system beginning day one during the initial implementation effort to achieve organizational
        objectives

    “An implementation of this magnitude only occurs once every couple of decades for providers like Berkshire. We are thrilled to play an important part in it’s success,” said Mark Scruggs, executive vice president at Santa Rosa. “Our vendor-neutral EHR expertise allowed us to present a number of viable options for Berkshire to select from, to meet their defined objectives. Ultimately, by deciding to upgrade to MEDITECH’s next generation platform, Expanse, the organization will be well positioned to meet the critical healthcare demands of lowering costs while improving the health of their patient population.”

    Berkshire is one of several Massachusetts healthcare providers Santa Rosa has partnered with for MEDITECH implementation services, making the firm one of the top EHR implementation consultants in the state. Other providers Santa Rosa has worked with include Signature Healthcare Brockton Hospital, Lawrence General Hospital, as well as, a number of other regional health systems to deliver optimized and advanced full service capability in support of the Expanse platform.
