Through this partnership, Centricity EMR users can implement eMedApps’ CareFinity solution, which enables clinicians and administrative staff to access patient information from devices other than EMRs, such as smartphones.

Healthcare organizations can use CareFinity as a contingency solution, should an EMR system go down during planned maintenance or hardware, network or power failures.

“With eMedApps’ CareFinity 3 solution our customers can continue to access the patient data that is critical to providing quality care during short-term EMR and health IT system outages,” said Neeti Gupta, director of independent software vendor marketing programs at GE Healthcare Digital.
