EMR vendor Allscripts has confirmed it will begin an implementation of its Sunrise clinical software at Latrobe Regional Hospital (LRH) this year, with plans to go live in the hospital's emergency department early next year.
As Pulse+IT reported last week, Allscripts has won the contract to roll out an EMR and community health solution for the Gippsland Health Alliance, beginning with the 289-bed LRH in what is the company's first foray with Sunrise in Victoria. The company is also rolling out the Sunrise administrative and clinical suites in South Australia, where it is better known as EPAS.
