The article, appearing in November 8th's issue of
The Herald-Sun describes several benefits expected from
T-SystemEV's implementation at
UNC Hospitals, scheduled for November 9th, including faster charting, elimination of lost and incomplete charts, and shorter wait times for patients. The implementation represents
T-SystemEV's first at an academic facility.
Quoted heavily in the article is Michael Harrigan, MD attending physician in UNC Hospital's 53,000-visit ED. Citing current challenges related to documenting, he says of
T-SystemEV, "It will be a great improvement."
Joe Lastinger, a
T-System vice president, also mentioned in the article, is pleased to see
T-SystemEV showcased for a wider audience than is usually the case. "Its great to see our EDIS described as it is - a comprehensive EDIS that not only offers solutions for providers but also benefits patients. We know
T-SystemEV's implementation at UNC will be a great success."
