PatientKeeper Continues Its Strong Growth in the Meditech Hospital Market

Information and a Cost Effective Solution for Business Continuity

BOSTON–(EMWNews)–PatientKeeper®, Inc., the leading provider of

integrated physician information systems, announces that its MEDITECH

customer base has grown to over 200 hospitals, representing a

significant portion of the hospitals running MEDITECH in the United

States. Across the nation, the market demand for PatientKeeper software

is driven by a growing need among hospitals to improve the physician

experience with access to data in MEDITECH and other ancillary systems,

provide a cost-effective means of accessing clinical data outside the

hospital, and to implement a robust business continuity solution to

allow all clinicians to access data in MEDITECH when the MEDITECH system

is not available.

PatientKeeper software has recently been implemented at a number of

MEDITECH facilities including Ohio’s Berger

Health System, St. Joseph Medical Center in Towson, Maryland (a member

of Catholic Health Initiatives), and Provena St. Joseph Medical Center

in Joliet, Illinois.

By adding the PatientKeeper Physician Information System as a layer on

top of MEDITECH and other ancillary systems, hospitals deliver a unified

view of patient information and provide their physicians with a tightly

integrated suite of physician-centric applications. The Physician

Information System gives physicians a modern browser-based view of

patient data on tablets, laptops and PCs, and offers a mobile companion

that runs on most major Smartphones and PDAs.

PatientKeeper’s proven integration technology

connects disparate systems that physicians typically access throughout

their workday into a single physician portal. With a single sign-on, the

PatientKeeper Portal enables providers to review clinical data from

multiple sources —including lab and test

results, EKG, PACS, fetal monitoring, Ambulatory EMRs and medication

histories; hand off patients to other physicians at the end of a shift;

and electronically sign medical record documentation. This improves

physician satisfaction with hospital IT, provides cost-effective remote

access to information for the affiliated physician community and extends

the value of MEDITECH and other hospital applications.

“What impressed us most about PatientKeeper’s

portal solution is that not only does it provide a physician-friendly

shell over MEDITECH, but it actually integrates clinical information

into a physician-centric workflow,” said Andy

Chileski, Berger Health System CIO. “Physicians

rave about PatientKeeper’s Portal and its

usability. Some of the physicians have commented that our system now

outshines those offered by some of the bigger tertiary facilities in the

area.”

Another benefit of the PatientKeeper Physician Information System is

that it provides redundancy for clinical information —

an effective and economical solution to ensure business continuity

during both planned and unplanned MEDITECH system downtime. This

capability ensures that physicians and other caregivers will always have

the information they need for patient care while supporting the JCAHO

guidelines for continuous access to clinical information.

“We are very excited to add these hospitals

and their physicians to our growing customer base,”

said Paul W. Brient, PatientKeeper president and CEO. “The

breadth and depth of our physician applications give our customers the

opportunity to expand the capabilities they can offer their physician

community to improve patient care. We look forward to working with them

as they continue on this bright path.”
