Case Study: Mee Memorial Hospital advances toward meaningful use with Connection’s Clinical Device Assessment

How One Hospital Leveraged a Clinical Device Assessment to Move Closer to Meaningful Use

Mee Memorial Hospital, a 119-bed non-profit hospital, needed to upgrade its technology to meet federal meaningful use requirements for electronic medical records but lacked the expertise to choose the right clinical devices. They enlisted vendor Connection Inc. to utilize its Clinical Device Assessment Service to determine which computing equipment would best suit their workflows and IT systems.

Connection Inc. implemented a three-step process that included a workflow analysis, a needs assessment, and a hands-on clinical device fair for staff. This allowed the hospital's clinical team to test equipment in realistic settings and provide input, which alleviated anxiety and ensured the right technology was selected. The engagement helped Mee Memorial make a confident investment, avoid costly mistakes, and move significantly closer to achieving its meaningful use goals.
