Columbus Community Hospital in the US has chosen to extend its contract with Altera Digital Health for an additional seven years, thereby extending the use of the Paragon electronic health record (EHR) system.

The 50-bed hospital has been using the Paragon EHR since 2010, and will now leverage upgrade services as part of its Altera subscription to stay up-to-date with the EHR and benefit from future Paragon releases.
