Electronic Medical Records
This year, Faith Regional was recognized
by HIMSS Analytics for achieving Stage 6
on the EMR Adoption Model (EMRAM).
The EMRAM is a method for evaluating
the progress and impact of electronic
medical record systems for hospitals. On
a scale from 0 to 7, Stage 7 represents
an advanced electronic patient record
environment. Stage 6 hospitals have
achieved significant advancement in
their IT capabilities that positions them
to successfully address many of the
current industry transformations, such as
meaningful use criteria in the American
Recovery and Reinvestment Act, claims
attachments for the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act, pay
for performance, and government quality
reporting programs.
Most Wired
Results are in for the American Hospital
Association’s (AHA) Health Forum’s
18th annual Health Care’s Most Wired
survey. And things are looking good for
Faith Regional. We were
named Most
Wired for the fourth year in a row
—
and are one out of only four hospitals in
Nebraska to be named so in 2016. This
award is another indicator of the way
Faith Regional is leveraging technology
to improve the health of communities we
serve.
