West Virginia Hospital Chooses Electronic Legal Health Record Technology to Improve Physician Satisfaction, Modernize Processes, Integrate with HCA MEDITECH System

READING, MA, February 2, 2010 -- St. Joseph's Hospital, a 325-bed acute care hospital in Parkersburg, West Virginia, has selected the complete eWebHIM(TM) suite of medical records workflow technology from eWebHealth, the leading provider of electronic workflow solutions for medical records, as its complete electronic legal health record (e-LHR) solution.

St. Joseph's will use the eWebHIM technology suite to digitize all paper components of its legal health record (LHR). The built-in workflows embedded in this e-LHR technology will automatically transmit patient charts to physicians for reviewing and completion and to the health information management (HIM) department for analysis and coding. In addition, this fully-secure, Web-based system will allow for simultaneous access to medical records for all authorized departmental users including Case Management, Quality Control, Utilization Review, Core Measures and Business Office.  This will eliminate the bottleneck of waiting for charts and improve overall HIM efficiency. With the eWebHIM suite, St. Joseph's expects to meet its goals of improving physician satisfaction, modernizing processes and improving record accessibility throughout its organization.
