A 78-bed community hospital chooses Soarian in its vision of providing clinicians with the tools needed to apply the principles of evidence-based medicine.
"Rural and small community providers have the same challenge as urban and academic medical centers – do more with a shrinking pool of resources. Decreasing technology costs, increasing availability of high-performance networks and the opportunity to remotely manage many aspects of health IT are converging to put Siemens in a unique position to deliver enterprise-level healthcare IT to these providers. We can therefore help those hospitals overcome traditional boundaries to health IT deployment, such as limited access to capital and to personnel, and help them maintain a position of local leadership in their communities."
