Case Study: Parkview Adventist Medical Center achieves fast, secure EMR access and HIMSS Stage 6 with Imprivata

Enabling secure, convenient access to EMR and achieving HIMSS analytics stage 6

Parkview Adventist Medical Center, a 55‑bed acute-care hospital in mid-coast Maine, set out to consolidate its environment with MEDITECH to reduce costs, tighten security, and boost productivity. Leadership faced clinician resistance and workflow friction: staff were burdened by multiple passwords and slow access to patient data, putting successful EMR adoption at risk.

Parkview deployed MEDITECH with Imprivata OneSign single sign-on and fingerprint biometrics, quickly enrolling users and demonstrating ease of use to physicians. The roll-out (23 MEDITECH modules in under six months; OneSign in two days) delivered fast, secure, password‑free access with automatic screen lock, saving money, increasing productivity, and helping the hospital achieve HIMSS Analytics Stage 6.
