Health services provider Fraser Health has selected Meditech’s electronic health record (EHR) solution, Meditech Expanse, to support 32 facilities across British Columbia.
The company plans to implement the EHR solution across its hospitals as well as the hospital-based clinics.
Fraser Health will use EHR solution’s mobile technology and advanced clinical functionality to enhance care and health outcomes of the people it serves throughout 20 communities.
Expanse will also provide advanced clinical functionality, including CPOE, physician documentation, and bedside medication verification.
Its mobile technology will offer healthcare providers with increased efficiency and more patient-facing time along with access to the EHR through mobile devices.
Fraser Health Informatics, Technology, and Facilities vice-president Brent Kruschel said: “Fraser Health serves one of the fastest growing regions in Canada and features a diverse patient population.
