CINCINNATI, Aug. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — Streamline Health
Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq:
STRM), a market leading provider of document workflow solutions
for hospitals, announced today that St. Vincent’s Medical Center
has extended its agreement to utilize Streamline Health
products and services through an agreement with Streamline Health’s
strategic partner, GE Healthcare. Under the terms of the seven-year
agreement, the healthcare system will be converting from a
licensing model to Streamline Health’s software as a service (SaaS)
model, and will upgrade to a new accessANYware version with
additional HIM workflows.
St. Vincent’s Medical Center is a 473-bed community teaching and
referral hospital with a Level II trauma center. St. Vincent’s
provides a full range of inpatient and outpatient services with
regional centers of excellence in cardiology, surgery, cancer care,
orthopedics, diagnostics, women’s and family services, behavioral
health, senior health, and an array of specialized services.
By migrating to accessANYware v1.9, the medical center will move
closer to their goal of ICD-10 compliance. accessANYware v1.9
provides key benefits in the final elimination of legacy hardware
and provides multi-entity benefits allowing a medical center to
manage facilities separately with unique governance. The upgrade
will also provide the medical center with GE Inbox integration
– allowing physicians to complete their charts from one
location.
As part of the new agreement, the medical center will also
deploy several additional Streamline Health products: Chart
Completion Workflow, Coding Workflow, and Release of Information
Workflow. The suite of workflows will improve the efficiency and
effectiveness of the HIM department by automating the routing of
documents and allowing remote employees access to documents
online.
