Summit Healthcare, a leader in healthcare system integration and automation, today announced that it has entered into a new, expanded agreement with Parkview Medical Center of Pueblo, Colo. to provide integration, automation tools and services to support the organization’s migration to the MEDITECH 6.0 platform. After successfully leveraging the Summit Scripting Toolkit (SST) for years, Parkview has chosen to implement Summit Express Connect to maximize interconnectivity as the facility prepares for its migration. Parkview Medical Center is licensed for 350 acute-care beds and provides a full range of general acute healthcare and behavioral health specialty services. Parkview understood that partnering with one integration company with a proven track record of success would position the organization for a streamlined and secure 6.0 migration. The Summit Express Connect interface engine is at the core of this initiative as the robust technology will enable Parkview to consolidate the existing interface landscape and quickly recoup interface costs by leveraging existing feeds.
“Parkview Medical Center has worked with Summit Healthcare for years to ensure seamless workflow automation with its scripting solution, so when it came time to select a vendor to assist with our migration from Magic to 6.0, Summit Healthcare was the clear choice,” said Paula Oreskovich, IT Director, Parkview Medical Center. “We feel confident that Summit Healthcare’s MEDITECH expertise will be a key factor in the ultimate success of our 6.0 strategy and its technology, with exceptional ease-of-use, will be invaluable throughout the migration process.”
Prior to this new agreement, Parkview had already contracted for Summit Scripting Tool, a robust application for custom workflow automation. During its MEDITECH 6.0 migration, SST will handle Parkview’s data migration efforts and eliminate all manual intervention processes that often accompany a system upgrade and migration.
“We are thrilled that Parkview Medical Center has again chosen to rely on Summit Healthcare in order to meet its integration and automation goals throughout its transition to 6.0,” said Ted Rossi, CEO, Summit Healthcare. “Embarking on a MEDITECH 6.0 migration is a significant undertaking and it is of the utmost importance that the facility and its integration partner build a foundation of ongoing efficiency. We look forward to a long partnership with Parkview as its integration and connectivity needs continue to evolve.”
