Cerner Announces Next Evolution of Cerner Millennium(R)
February 21 2012 - 8:30AM
Today Cerner (Nasdaq:CERN) announced the launch of Millennium+™,
the next evolution of Cerner Millennium®. Combining the enterprise
platform with the secure Cerner Cloud, Millennium+ delivers a new
user experience that is fast, smart and easy. It provides
personalized, intuitive and relevant clinical workflows via the
desktop, tablet and smartphone.
Cerner understands the importance of health system and community
interoperability, which is why Millennium+ integrates and unifies
information gathered within the organization and across the
community into a provider's workflow. Millennium+ is designed to
speed up workflows, reduce clicks and ensure Cerner solutions
provide each user the information they need at the right point in
the workflow in context of the person, condition and venue.
In addition to Sepsis alerting and Chart Search, one of the
first solutions that will be launched as part of the Millennium+
platform is PowerChart+Touch™. PowerChart+Touch was created
specifically for the iPad. With a swipe of a finger, providers can
quickly and easily navigate workflows. As part of the Millennium+
platform, solutions are available on-demand versus relying on major
release schedules to access to new capabilities. This provides
client organizations, departments and individual users to more
quickly adapt to new capabilities, regulatory mandates and quality
measurements.
"Cerner is going beyond foundational automation of the health
record and creating a new experience; not just a repository to
chart activity or place orders," said Jeff Townsend, Cerner chief
of staff and executive VP. "With this new combination of
capabilities, Cerner is well positioned to accelerate innovation
around the second order effects of a digitized industry. What you
can do now with Millennium+ is much more than just being paperless,
it moves the boundaries beyond a typical Enterprise Health Record
system."
Millennium+ creates a new user experience that is:
- Millennium+ is designed for optimal
performance. The solution speeds up access to
comprehensive clinical workflows, anticipating the data
requirements to complete end-to-end experiences while reducing
clicks and improving context of care.
- Millennium+ is smart and aware of the context
of the patient, the location and the user. It anticipates
"next," and brings information face up in the context of
the next decision or action, making it moment relevant.
- Millennium+ is easy to use. The interaction is
intuitive, with minimal training and configuration required.
Millennium+ solutions are currently rolling out to physicians
through the end of the year and to additional providers through
2013.

PowerChart+ Touch.
