In late 2019 Val Verde Regional Medical Center (VVRMC) closed the contract with their previous IT services vendor and made plans to implement MEDITECH in February 2020. It soon became apparent that they did not have sufficient internal resources, personnel, or expertise to successfully execute the implementation in an on-premises environment, so began looking for a remote hosting partner for their MEDITECH implementation. VVRMC decided to partner with Engage, a Tegria company, for remote hosting in Engage’s cloud environment.

Join us on April 27th to hear Beauregard Health System (BHS) discuss their MEDITECH Expanse implementation supported by cloud hosting with Engage. You will hear how their software delivery was received on the same day that COVID-19 was declared a pandemic and how cloud hosting enabled their implementation to continue during a subsequent transition to a remote-work environment even with the impacts of direct hits from Hurricanes Laura and Delta. Senior leadership from both Engage and BHS will discuss how flexibility, communication, collaboration and cloud hosting helped BHS reach the finish line for their implementation, even in the face of nearly insurmountable challenges.

San Luis Valley Health (SLVH) was dissatisfied with its current electronic health record (EHR) technology. SLVH leadership knew they needed a more robust, integrated EHR to support their clinical and financial operations, as well as meet regulatory requirements. As a non-profit, community hospital, financial stability is a principal concern to SLVH, whose payer mix is comprised of 70 percent Medicare/Medicaid. SLVH considered a number of EHR solutions, but selected MEDITECH because it provided a single, comprehensive and integrated health record that’s highly credible and affordable.
