By establishing a direct connection to My Turn, Keck Medicine can automatically pull the necessary information from a patient’s EHR and find available time slots for vaccination appointments, according to a March 31 news release emailed to Becker’s Hospital Review.

Keck Medicine is the first Cerner client to go live with the connection.
