Terms of the subsidy were not immediately disclosed.
Mountain States Health Alliance will interface the EHR with its Soarian hospital information system from Siemens Healthcare, Malvern, Pa. The alliance also will link the ambulatory and inpatient systems to CareSpark, a regional health information organization. The alliance is an existing user of older practice management software from Allscripts, as well as the vendor's home care application.
