The hospital is implementing MEDITECH 6.1, the latest version of the EHR available to hospitals. Magnolia Regional has used MEDITECH’s EHR since the 1990s, according to the report.
“This is a monumental project for this organization and requires a vast amount of capital and human resources,” David Parker, CIO and vice president of technology at Magnolia Regional, said in the report. “When complete, this [EHR] should provide us with a mechanism for the future, as we deliver healthcare to our patient population.”
