Allscripts Sunrise™ goes live in Gippsland
April 30 2019 - 11:22AM
Allscripts (NASDAQ: MDRX) has expanded its footprint in Australia
with a successful go-live at Latrobe Regional Hospital in rural
Victoria. The Gippsland site is Allscripts’ first implementation of
Sunrise in Victoria and the first to incorporate Microsoft’s secure
cloud platform, Azure. The system offers a comprehensive Sunrise
implementation supported by a cloud computing service in line with
contemporary cloud-based health information management.
The Gippsland Health Alliance (GHA) is a consortium of publicly
funded health services in the Gippsland region of Victoria, east of
Melbourne, covering some 16,045 square miles. Latrobe Regional
Hospital is Gippsland's specialist referral and trauma center and
is one of the region's largest employers, with more than 1,900
staff. It is a purpose-built 300+ bed teaching hospital that cares
for a population of more than 260,000 people.
“This is a milestone development in the Australian healthcare
sector and we have no doubt that many other sites will eventually
follow in Latrobe’s footsteps to leverage the power of the cloud,”
said Todd Haebich, General Manager Allscripts Australia. “This new
partnership demonstrates Allscripts global offerings and builds
upon its commitment to delivering the most advanced solutions in
Australia.”
“We are delighted to not only go live with a world-leading EHR
but to have the first cloud-based system in Australia and all of
the functional benefits it brings,” said Don McRae Acting Chief
Executive of Latrobe Regional Hospital. “Our aligned collaboration
with Allscripts is an investment in best-practice patient care and
positions us as a leading regional health care provider in
Australia.”
Used by healthcare organizations across the globe, Allscripts
Sunrise is a fully integrated electronic health record that
connects all aspects of care, including ambulatory, surgical,
radiology, and laboratory services. Built to enable efficient and
safe care, Sunrise is a physician-friendly, evidence-based single
platform with integrated analytics that helps deliver true
personalized medicine. Sunrise supports all core care venues across
the enterprise by delivering a single patient record, and features
patient-centric capabilities that increase access and convenience
for the consumer.
Dr. Nic Woods, Health Industry Executive and Chief Medical
Officer for Microsoft Australia, said that hospitals around the
world are looking to the cloud to accelerate deployment of clinical
and operational capabilities. With Allscripts delivering its
Sunrise EHR on Azure, hospitals can focus more on delivering
technologies that help drive real-world clinical and operational
outcomes rather than having to spend time managing underpinning
infrastructure.
“Microsoft Azure in a healthcare setting provides a trusted and
secure platform which local teams can also leverage to improve
other capabilities such as interoperability and advanced analytical
capabilities, both of which ultimately improve patient care,” Dr.
Woods said. “It is also an opportunity for these teams to develop
the skills and knowledge to enable innovation across the health
system.”
“These capabilities have been introduced with the implementation
of Sunrise™ across the region. The go-live at Latrobe Regional
Hospital is a ground breaking and crucial step in delivery of a
digital health ecosystem for the future,” added Dr.
Woods.
