Case Study: CalvertHealth achieves rapid COVID-19 and occupancy reporting with MEDITECH BCA

CalvertHealth builds COVID-19 dashboards in 24 hours with MEDITECH

CalvertHealth Medical Center, a nonprofit community hospital in Maryland, faced the urgent challenge of rapidly reporting COVID-19 symptom data and hospital occupancy rates to state health agencies with extremely tight, next-day deadlines. To meet this mandate, they turned to their existing MEDITECH Business and Clinical Analytics (BCA) solution for a fast and flexible reporting solution.

Using MEDITECH's BCA platform, an analyst quickly built two specialized dashboards: one to monitor and categorize patients with coronavirus symptoms and another to track real-time bed availability. This solution allowed CalvertHealth to successfully meet both stringent reporting deadlines, pulling data directly from the EHR and saving significant time. The implementation of MEDITECH's tool improved communication, enabling efficient daily reporting to the state and effective internal information sharing.
