Boulder Community Hospital Selects the Summit Integration Suite and agrees to a multi-year Integration Outsourcing contract

BRAINTREE, MA – Summit Healthcare, a leader in healthcare system integration and task automation, today announced it has entered into an agreement with Boulder Community Hospital to migrate from their existing interface technology to the Summit Express Connect interface engine technology.

Boulder Community Hospital is a non-profit, community owned facility with 265 licensed beds across multiple facilities currently running the MEDITECH Healthcare Information System.

In addition to implementing the Summit Integration Engine technology, Boulder Community Hospital will be installing a failover server system known as the Summit Hotbox to ensure system uptime. To round out the partnership, Boulder Community Hospital has agreed to a multi-year  Integration Outsourcing  contract to help migrate all existing interfaces and subsequently manage integration efforts.

"Boulder Community Hospital selected Summit Healthcare because of their proven track record for streamlining complex interface environments. The Summit Healthcare solution will replace two engines at BCH and not only will this save the hospital money, but it will allow us to implement interfaces faster and with fewer resources,” remarked Linda Minghella, Chief Information Officer at Boulder Community Hospital.

"After reviewing Boulder Community Hospital’s IT strategic goals it was quickly identified the advantage of partnering with an integration vendor like Summit Healthcare to address the complex integration issues that will present when migrating to the MEDITECH 6.0 Focus technology. Our goal is to work with BCH to streamline their integration needs now and in the future," remarked Joyce Crook, Director of Sales, Summit Healthcare.
