Hamilton Memorial to go live with Epic on Sept. 17

McLeansboro, Ill.-based Hamilton Memorial Hospital District is transitioning to the Epic EHR system on Sept. 17.

A team of more than 40 health IT professionals has been working on Epic's implementation. The hospital is asking patients to arrive 15 minutes early in the weeks following Sept. 17 to help with the transition, according to the Aug. 1 Hamilton news release.

"For years, using the same highly coordinated Epic EHR in our rural communities that are used throughout the nation had been a seemingly unreachable goal. Now, electronically connecting our local healthcare services and patients through Epic is a reality which will both better coordinate and improve the quality of care provided to the patients we serve," Hamilton Memorial Hospital District CEO Victoria Woodrow said.
