Saint John’s Health System --- EMR and CPOE Implementation


“Saint John’s Health Systems’ success with CPOE is a direct result of partnerships. Our partnership with our physicians provided leadership in system design and clinical excellence. Our Partnership with American Healthcare Solutions provided the expertise in project direction, project management and systems and process design necessary for a successful, cost effective project.”

...Roger Strange, CIO, Saint John’s Health System

“CPOE is a remarkable system because it was developed by Saint John’s Information Resources, American Healthcare Solutions, and our doctors working side by side for over a year!  It has completely revolutionized the way I care for hospitalized patients. It gives me the ability to access patient data and act on that data from virtually anywhere at any time.”

...Dr. Mathison, a practicing physician who was part of the design and implementation team at Saint John’s

Because of the success of the CPOE implementation and system, Saint John’s is in the 99th percentile of performance nationwide in this important patient safety and quality initiative.  The clinical and system expertise along project leadership and management from American Healthcare Solutions helped us implement CPOE quickly and successfully.  The team from American Healthcare Solutions helped guide us in the design of systems and processes so that our physicians, nurses, lab, radiology, pharmacy and patient financial services stakeholders, all felt like they had the best solution for the patient.”

Wishard Health Services --- Revenue Cycle Performance Improvement


As a county hospital, we faced numerous challenges in collecting consistent and accurate registration and revenue recognition information especially in the level 1 trauma center.  American Healthcare Solutions, Inc. organized an executive level steering committee that met weekly for one hour and led us in addressing and resolving revenue cycle issues. They also organized and managed a variety of project teams made up primarily of hospital financial and clinical staff that implemented policy, process and system changes at the direction of the steering committee.  In a few short months we had consistent registration practices and systems implemented for the health system that resulted in significant revenue collection improvements. Additionally our new process to recognize revenue resulted in significant gross revenue gains. We could not achieved the results we had in a such a short time without the direction and leadership of American Healthcare Solutions, Inc.”

Holy Cross Health System --- System Planning and ERP Implementation


Prior to the project Holy Cross Health System had disparate financial information systems that made it difficult to collect and manage financial information across a billion dollar organization.  With American Healthcare Solutions, Inc. leadership and guidance, we recognized that the most important aspect of the project was to select and implement a solution that would provide all of the stakeholders including corporate and the member organizations the information they needed.  After a highly competitive bidding and contracting process we selected Peoplesoft financials – the right solution for Holy Cross to run on a central data center with a common chart of accounts for the entire health system.  This solution has proven to save millions of dollars in on going support and management at the same time giving management the information that they need.
