PLEASANTON, Calif., Feb. 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Healthcare Triangle Inc., (Nasdaq: HCTI) (“HCTI” or the “Company”) announced that they have successfully helped Floyd County Medical Center (FCMC) in accelerating their MEDITECH Expanse implementation.

Floyd County Medical Center (FCMC) is a 25-bed critical access hospital and rural health clinic based out of Iowa. FCMC was tasked with a digital transformation from a hybrid approach that included an older version MEDITECH EHR used in their hospital and a largely paper-based patient records system utilized in their clinic to adopting a single, latest version MEDITECH MaaS/Expanse platform while also transitioning the clinician, billing, financial, and ancillaries’ workflows in place (from MEDITECH C/S 5.6 and Allscripts PM in their clinics).

They wanted to leverage a unified MEDITECH Expanse solution as an enabler for operational excellence and looked for MEDITECH expertise to help them go forward with a successful MEDITECH Expanse EHR implementation. Alongside this major shift, they simultaneously planned to digitize all mix of paper and electronic documentation into the easily accessible patient historical records.

The Medical Center chose to partner with Healthcare Triangle due to the company's extensive experience and successful track record in implementing the MEDITECH Expanse system. Healthcare Triangle’s MEDITECH consultants worked closely with FCMC to modernize their EHR by moving to MEDITECH Expanse. The hospital utilized HCTI for implementation consulting on the clinical and financial systems, project management, and staff augmentation services.

FCMC leveraged HCTI’s Professional Services support to avoid missteps, cut time and risk of errors, and ensure favourable outcomes. HCTI was able to align with FCMC to force multiply person resource needs while providing guidance and consulting to drive success through proper strategic planning and execution.

“HCTI has been instrumental in keeping our MEDITECH Expanse project on track. The experience of the team members helps to guide our facility to make best practice decisions,” says Lisa Hintgen, RN Clinical Informatics Floyd County Medical Center.

FCMC had a successful Go-LIVE of its MaaS EHR platform. Users continue to learn and gain comfort with the new workflows and take advantage of the efficiencies.

With a comprehensive, single MEDITECH Expanse EHR, FCMC can now:

  • Deliver seamless patient care focusing on quality improvement and enhanced delivery
  • Facilitate accurate and timely care decisions
  • Increase physician and nurse efficiencies and higher levels of end user satisfaction
  • Make the most of their MEDITECH investment while staying up to date with clinical innovations
