UMass Memorial Health Care and Bethesda Healthcare System have signed multi-year contracts for Soarian, Siemens' web-based healthcare information system (His).
Soarian helps hospitals facilitate enterprise-wide workflows to more efficiently meet their clinical, financial and administrative challenges.
The strategic agreement between Siemens and the 1,111-bed UMass Memorial Health Care is a result of the Worcester, Massachusetts-based health system's desire to consolidate its revenue-cycle system, enhance patient-safety initiatives, and achieve quality improvement objectives.
The seven-year deal includes implementing Soarian Clinicals, featuring new plan-of-care functionality, Soarian Financials, and Soarian Quality Measures, Siemens' knowledge-driven healthcare data-mining tool that helps hospitals expedite the submission of quality measures through automated chart abstraction.
South Florida's not-for-profit Bethesda Healthcare System, offering both inpatient and ambulatory services, has just extended its 25-year relationship with Siemens Healthcare through a new contract that includes migration to Soarian Clinicals, Soarian Critical Care, Soarian Emergency Department, Patient Identification Check, and Soarian Quality Measures.
The new nine-year partnership impacts some 550 Bethesda Healthcare physicians in more than 30 areas of specialty.
