White Papers and Research
Achieving "Meaningful Use" from Your Electronic Health Records Investments
The pace of Electronic Health Records (EHR) adoption is accelerating, spurred by the $20 billion of incentives available as part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA) for meaningful use of EHR. ARRA legislates reimbursement not only for the cost of EHR software but also for costs associated with the hardware and underlying infrastructure that is critical to ensuring reliable and secure 24x7 access to patient data. Without round-the-clock availability of EHR data, meaningful use becomes meaningless since patient care is compromised.

What other changes exist in how payers are planning for ICD-10? Find out in this Q2 2009 trending report.

What are the risks when clinicians cant access EHRs? How far-reaching are the consequences when data is lost or compromised? Explore the mission-critical role of EHRs, and learn how to enable resilient systems with practical solutions for high availability and continuous availability.
Big Savings Make a Big Difference
For Catholic Health Initiatives (CHI) saving $125 million with the Lawson suite of business applications was a big deal. And it didn't hurt that the 45,000-person rollout was accomplished in an accelerated 24-month timeframe. Or that they expect to save another $50 to $60 million each year.
But, it's also the start of something bigger. A more responsive and streamlined supply chain. Easy-to-access, actionable reporting. And most importantly, millions freed up each year to help this non-profit organization keep its focus on patient care and healthier communities.
