Texas hospital to implement Prognosis EHR

Eastland Memorial Hospital is implementing Prognosis Health Information Systems' ChartAccess Comprehensive EHR to help meet meaningful use incentives.

ChartAccess Comprehensive EHR is a shared web-native EHR, delivered via a cloud computing model, that provides clinicians with a view of patient data to support clinical care.

The 52-bed Eastland, Texas-based hospital began software installation and implementation earlier this month and plans to start the attestation period on May 31, and to complete attestation to meaningful use requirements by Sept. 1, 2011.

Under this connectivity model, all participating hospitals dial into one centralized tool remotely and the EHR is integrated with billing, laboratory, pharmacy, radiology and other ancillary systems at the various hospitals.
