Holy Name Goes Live on Custom-built EHR Powered by Medicomp Systems' Clinical Data Engine

WASHINGTON and TEANECK, N.J., July 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Medicomp Systems, which makes medical data relevant, usable and actionable, and Holy Name, one of New Jersey's last remaining independent Catholic health systems, today announced that Holy Name Medical Center's emergency department is now live on the hospital's new internally developed electronic health record platform powered by Medicomp's Quippe Clinical Data Engine.

Holy Name created its EHR platform through a collaborative, multidisciplinary, enterprise-wide initiative that included participation from physicians, nurses, and other key stakeholders who regularly interface with patients. As Holy Name launches the EHR across the enterprise in coming months, it will replace multiple legacy EHR platforms.

"While exploring the enterprise EHR market, we identified significant gaps in the available solutions," said Sai Kandamangalam, chief information officer at Holy Name. "After an exhaustive search, we decided to partner with Medicomp to build an EHR that would serve the needs of the hospital, as well as our physician offices, home health, and hospice care providers. The solution we've created is very intuitive and user-friendly, utilizes top-of-the-line technology and provides a single patient record that can be viewed across the enterprise, regardless of care setting."  

Holy Name's EHR utilizes Medicomp's Quippe Clinical Data Engine to deliver high-quality, clinically relevant data at the point of care within clinical and documentation workflows. With Quippe, users are delivered problem-oriented views that provide clinicians meaningful details about a specific patient for any known or suspected disease state. Clinicians spend less time searching for relevant patient and problem information, which reduces frustrations, increases productivity and enhances clinical decision making.  

"We congratulate Holy Name for successfully creating and launching a state-of-the-art solution that users are quickly embracing," said David Lareau, Medicomp CEO. "We are honored to have been part of this exciting venture which has demonstrated the value of clinician collaboration and superior technology in developing a solution that serves the needs of users, improves the clinician experience, and helps with the delivery of efficient, high-quality care."

HIMSS21 attendees can view the new Holy Name EHR at the Medicomp booth #3421. Stop by on Wednesday, August 11 between 4 – 6pm for a happy hour reception to talk with leaders from Holy Name Health and learn about their innovative solution.
