UC Health, the University of Cincinnati’s affiliated health system, has gained a Stage 7 Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model (EMRAM) Award from the proposed HIMSS Analytics, while the 167 of its network practices have acquired Stage 7 Ambulatory Awards.
The EMRAM is a popular methodology and process for evaluating the development and affect of electronic medical record systems for the hospitals, which involves 8 stages (0-7) that calculate a hospital’s execution and utilization of information technology applications. Similarly, the EMR Ambulatory Adoption Model offers a methodology for evaluating the development and affect of electronic medical record systems for ambulatory services owned by the hospitals utilizing the similar 8-stage scale.
UC Health involves the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, 3 extra hospitals, and the University of Cincinnati Physicians, Cincinnati’s greatest multi-specialty practice team with more than seven hundred board-certified surgeons and clinicians.
“UC Health is to be identified for our important adoption of the EHRs by receiving the HIMSS Analytics Stage 7 in both our acute and ambulatory care atmospheres. This achievement is because of our commitment to better patient results through the extended utilization of IT,” stated Jay Brown, UC Health’s senior vice president and chief information officer. “The HIMSS Analytics Stage 7 Award mentions our commitment to delivering the greatest quality of care and enhancing the experience of our sufferers.”
The health network joins an elite group of hospitals in the HIMSS Analytics database that have acquired Stage 7 certification for inpatient care. HIMSS Analytics points out that during the 4th quarter of 2015 merely 4.2% of the more than 5,400 U.S. hospitals in its contributor database gained the Stage 7 Award. And, only 7.89% of the more than 34,000 ambulatory clinics it detects acquired the Stage 7 Ambulatory Award.
