Seton
Medical Center Adopts Physician Portals to Improve
Medical Care, In and Out of the Hospital
SALT
LAKE CITY, UT and DALY CITY, CA, May 17,
2004 - Seton Medical Center, recognized as one of
the top 100 hospitals in the United States for cardiovascular
care, has partnered with Medicity,
Inc., to create physician portals to heighten patient
safety and improve care in it’s 357-bed facility.
Physicians on the organization’s medical staff,
as well as referring physicians, will soon be able
to use any Internet-connected PC to access patient
information currently stored in various systems, including
Siemens, Misys, and Mars II.
“Increasing numbers of physicians
are demanding improved access to clinical data,”
said Carol Owen, Vice President of Product Managment.
“Solutions like the ProAccess physician portal,
which implements the powerful integration capabilities
of web services, will help hospitals link information
from disparate systems and present it to clinicians
in a user-friendly format. It’s a practical
alternative to replacing existing systems to achieve
integration.”
Seton Medical Center, founded in
1893, is a non-profit facility with more than 600
physicians, and offers the most advanced surgical
procedures, treatment options, and comprehensive healthcare
services available. Recognized as a one of the top
