St.
Francis Hospital Partners with Medicity to
Enhance Care and Elevate Patient Safety
SALT LAKE
CITY, UT and LOS ANGELES, CA, January 15,
2004 - St. Francis Hospital, Los Angeles’ busiest
private trauma center, is collaborating with Medicity,
Inc., to deploy a physician portal solution that will
integrate data from disparate
legacy systems into a single, user-friendly interface.
“The ProAccess system allows St. Francis to
easily tailor decision support so that it provides
maximum value to the physician and the patient receiving
care,” said David Coyle, President and cofounder
of Medicity. “The goal is to equip physicians
with the tools to make informed decisions at the bedside.
Results review is now streamlined and standardized,
with real-time data access, enabling physicians to
provide patient care in a more efficient, effective,
and safe manner.”
The implementation of Medicity’s
ProAccess physician portal will simplify workflow
for physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals,
with all patient data easily accessible in a unified
patient view. Using Medicity’s interface management
tools, St. Francis will deploy an integrated IT system
that will enable clinicians to securely access medical
records anywhere in the world.
St. Francis Hospital provides patient-centered, economical
health services with a special concern for the sick
poor and their families. St. Francis operates a 384-bed
acute care hospital, six community-based health clinics,
and the largest and busiest private emergency trauma
center in Los Angeles County.
