St Vincent’s Health Australia has adopted MEDITECH’s Expanse platform as the foundational electronic medical record (EMR) system for its ten private hospitals.
By using the Expanse platform, St Vincent’s aims to improve patient care at the ten private hospitals, which are located across New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.
The system will unify patient records across these hospitals and provide a single EMR platform for them.
According to MEDITECH, its Expanse platform is designed to be an intuitive and interoperable EMR that facilitates care across various settings.
Expanse will be implemented through a scalable Cloud-based subscription model, MEDITECH as a Service (MaaS).
This model offers real-time, web-based navigation personalised to each care team member’s workflow.
