Slide Presentation from the AHRQ 2007 Annual Conference

Project Infocare Vision

• Citizens Memorial Healthcare will implement Meditech to enable a patient to enter anywhere into our continuum of care and have a personal identity that is maintained across that continuum.
• Physicians and other caregivers will have access to all of that patient's medical information within the healthcare system.
• Health care providers will be able to document efficiently within the software system. Providers will be able to spend more time with their patients. Time will be spent providing patients with that human touch of care, rather than spent completing forms and paperwork.
• We will realize the benefit of our investment of time, talent and money in Meditech by enabling Citizens Memorial Healthcare to become a technologically advanced health care organization that is poised to grow to meet demand and offer new services to our current patients and to the community at large.

Notes:

The vision of having access everywhere was a challenge.
