Patterson is No. Cerner consistently receives high marks in independent user satisfaction surveys. However, the company has faced a few lawsuits regarding EHR functionality. In , Girard Kan. Medical Center sued Cerner for allegedly failing to complete the EHR implementation in time for the hospital to qualify for meaningful use incentives. Cerner's client intelligence portal, developed in-house, consolidates data from all the company's sales, consulting, support and service systems to provide Cerner leadership with a comprehensive overview of company activity and provide employees with actionable insights to use during client interactions.
The portal, Delphi, helped Cerner earn the No. Today, Cerner is contracted at more than 5, hospitals and 27, provider facilities. Later that year, Cerner hired its 1, th associate.
Since then, the company has expanded its footprint across the Kansas City metro, the U. Today, Cerner has associates on seven Kansas City campuses, as well as offices in 17 states and 25 countries. The innovative facility was designed to provide Cerner associates and their families with access to convenient, affordable and comprehensive care.
Today, Cerner has on-site health clinics on four of its seven Kansas City campuses. In June, Cerner completed construction of its ,square-foot data center, which was designed to withstand an F4 tornado and other natural disasters. Discern Explorer was modeled after the Structured Query Language SQL database querying language with additional functionality added to facilitate organizing information retrieved into properly formatted reports.
The LightHouse methodology supplements an organizations existing performance improvement initiatives and provides reporting and ongoing monitoring of improvement efforts. LightHouse solutions include:. Sepsis affects , patients per year in the United States alone. However, studies show sepsis can be handled better if it is diagnosed in the first six hours after contracting germs.
In order to make this detection as early as possible, Cerner now has come with a solution. John Sepsis Agent, created in co-operation with Methodist health care in Memphis, Tennessee speeds up early detection and diagnosis of sepsis.
How the system works? The integrated system analyzes all the information gathered from the above sources which includes Glucose level, Respiratory rate, Temperature, Heat rate, and Lab results. An alert fires when the system finds three out of range criteria. One of such is The Millennium Light house. This program includes sepsis management power plan with orders for intravenous fluid, diagnostic tests and an empiric therapy adviser. This adviser guide clinicians to a variety of treatment option based on the source of infection.
John Sepsis Agent can improve healthcare organizations in the following ways:. The Cerner electronic medical record EMR is an integrated database that provides a comprehensive set of capabilities with the following key benefits: 1. Increase efficiency by placing real-time, updated information with the care team in time to make fast and effective decisions 3. Increase access to information from multiple venues in the health system. The EMR was created to allow healthcare professionals to electronically store, capture and access patient health information in both the acute and ambulatory care setting.
It allows the users to provide real-time access to patient results and clinical information across care disciplines, enable that healthcare organizations meet The Joint Commission requirements for patient confidentiality, access patient information securely from wherever and whenever it is most convenient for the care team. The PathNet laboratory information system delivers to clinicians a comprehensive and fully integrated technology that covers both the managerial and the operational sides of the laboratory.
As a result, information links seamlessly with the patient's electronic medical record. PathNet serves the needs of different sections under pathology departments umbrella such as Blood Science, Microbiology, Cellular Pathology and Blood Transfusion functions.
The technology has a capability to store, retrieved and disseminated patient specific information to and from health care system. Aside from that, the system is continually updated based on national standards and guidelines. Some are: it has a capability to process large quantities of specimens efficiently with minimal error possible.
Finally it ensures the rapid availability of patent results to care providers. As a result Cerner come up with medical device connectivity solution which alleviate this challenge. In doing so, the solution connects medical devices with EMR enabling two-way communication between the two systems.
This solution improves care by allowing care providers to focus on patients rather than paper work and data entry associated with it. Cerner also collaborated with Hospira to enhance the integration of I. EMR technology. This aims to improve the interoperability between Hospira's smart I. V infusion devices and Cerner's CareAware solutions [44].
Medical calculators integrated in EHR are invaluable assists for care providers, reports a Cerner website. In order to address this need, a group of physicians at Cerner started to work on integrated medical calculator solutions. In order, to accomplish that they partnered with MedCalc As a result, this new solution provides all Cerner clients access to more than calculators, clinical criteria and decision trees. To name one example of such clinical calculator is Apgar score for determining the well being of a new born.
Cerners patient portal was designed to help patients become more actively involved in their healthcare. Individuals will have greater access to their health information than ever before using a variety of access tools including laptops, tablets and other mobile devices.
Cerner began to expand globally in the s as well, establishing presences in Australia, England, Canada, Singapore, Saudi Arabia and Germany during the decade. Ten years after its introduction, in , Millennium had been successfully implemented in more than 1, facilities worldwide. In July , president Trace Devanny left the company.
