New Victoria Hospital in London, UK, has selected US-based company MEDITECH’s cloud-based electronic patient record (EPR) platform, called ‘Expanse’, to streamline its processes and lower clinical burden.
MEDITECH describes Expanse as a web-based solution, which offers a complete and ‘easier-to-navigate’ digital patient record to deliver improved clinical results.
According to the vendor, New Victoria Hospital chose Expanse for its functionality, longevity, and cost-effectiveness.
The hospital’s decision to choose MEDITECH Expanse follows an extensive assessment of various EPR systems from Europe and the US and is said to have been driven by the platform’s potential to enhance experiences for both clinicians and patients.
The Expanse EPR at New Victoria Hospital will be hosted on the Google Cloud Platform (GCP) through MEDITECH UK.
The deployment of this subscription-based platform is claimed to offer sustainable services to New Victoria Hospital at a ‘predictable’ cost, removing the necessity for an on-site data centre and simplifying the complexities associated with EPR procurement and maintenance.

MEDITECH further noted that the intuitive software and personalised workflows of Expanse are expected to play a crucial role in enhancing physician efficiencies at the hospital.
Additionally, the integration of clinical decision support within the platform will deliver clinicians timely, actionable insights at the point of care.
The implementation of Expanse EPR will also bolster New Victoria Hospital’s patient engagement initiatives.
A new patient portal, part of the EPR, will be launched to grant patients access to their health data and incorporate features such as electronic forms and questionnaires.
New Victoria Hospital CEO David Marshall said: “Implementing Expanse puts our hospital in good stead for the next ten years. Our partnership with MEDITECH will empower us to use digital tools and technology like AI to continue to grow our business in an increasingly challenging world.”
