One of Southern New Jersey’s largest nonprofit integrated delivery networks, with four hospitals, more than 200 community access points, and an expansive network of primary and specialty care physicians across five counties, had a data-access problem.

Decades of updates and acquisitions had created a web of EHR, paper, and unique, disparate data sources across the organization’s complex system of hospitals, cancer centers, multispecialty clinics, and affiliated medical practices. and community clinics. In addition to growing legacy archival fees for outdated platforms, this siloed data ecosystem created a fragmented and inefficient data-sharing environment. Clinicians were unable to access complete medical histories and were relying upon patients as the source of truth.

The health system sought an approach that would operate a unified EMR across all of their facilities, as well as vendor-agnostic compatibility that would interface with future solutions and utilize their healthcare data to deliver insights.

Transformation and Migration — Hart provided the health system with fast and accurate data transformations and migrations. From the smallest of clinics to a complete clinical and financial record transition from one EHR to another, Hart solutions met the evolving needs over the last 8 years, ensuring access to data where and when it's needed.

Archival and Compliance — Hart leveraged secure backup and long-term archival, allowing continuous enterprisewide, cloud-based storage for archived patient records.

Compass — A system-wide web-based universal patient record viewer with SSO integration to most major EHR vendors. This provides visibility to historical patient healthcare data to ensure reliable access for continuity of care.
