Medicomp Systems, Holy Name Health partner on EHR

New Jersey-based Holy Name Health is set to launch Harmony EHR, a new electronic health record system developed at the 361-bed hospital in collaboration with Medicomp. The platform, powered by Medicomp's Quippe Clinical Data Engine, will officially go live later this spring in the hospital's emergency department, with an expansion planned later in the year. Holy Name Health counts nearly 4,000 employees and admits about 30,000 patients each year, and currently uses multiple EHR platforms across its enterprise, including an internally built inpatient solution that was implemented in 1999. Harmony EHR will eventually replace all legacy technology in its ED, ambulatory and inpatient settings. The new platform was created solely at the health system through a "collaborative, multidisciplinary, enterprise-wide initiative," official say. It incorporates Medicomp's Quippe technology, whose documentation-functionality integrates into existing clinical workflows and EHRs.
