EHRs

Charlotte, N.C.-based Atrium Health will transition from its Cerner EHR to an Epic system as part of its ongoing effort to integrate with Navicent Health in Macon, Ga., according to a Feb. 28 news release.

OhioHealth O'Bleness Hospital last week launched a new Epic EHR across its Athens-based hospital.

The American Medical Association is working alongside artificial intelligence software company Nuance to build new technologies that will reduce physicians' documentation burden.

Here are 12 updates on Cerner's operations, software products and partnerships reported by Becker's Hospital Review in February.

Here are seven updates on Epic's operations, software products and partnerships reported by Becker's Hospital Review in February.

Athenahealth has big plans in 2020 to grow the company and innovate in product development, particularly around improving the patient and clinician experience.

EHR implementations are costly, and in some cases health systems have taken an unexpected financial hit related to the transition.

After delaying its anticipated Cerner EHR go-live, which was scheduled to deploy March 28, the Department of Veterans Affairs announced it will now launch the EHR system in July, according to a Feb. 27 Fedscoop report. 

Most patients consider patient portals as the engagement technology that best simplifies their experience and helps them participate in their care, according to a recent KLAS Research report.

The Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs' inspectors general will begin a joint audit this month to assess the agencies' progress achieving interoperability between their Cerner-built EHR systems, according to a Feb. 24 letter.
