The Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady Health System (FMOLHS) has recently been awarded for three achievements in Information Services. These awards come from Epic HRS, EMRAM and CHIME.
“Our achievements are a direct result of the collective efforts of our dedicated team members, who strive every day to support our healthcare teams and drive innovation in healthcare technology,” said Will Landry, senior vice president and chief information officer.
FMOLHS has earned the Summa Cum Laude in Version 7 Honor Roll distinction from Epic. Epic is an electronic health record system that is used to facilitate clinical care across the health system. The Honor Roll Program is a recognition-based program dependent on an organization’s use of Epic’s lessons, strategies, and best practices. To be eligible for the Summa Cum Laude distinction, an organization must complete all nine components of the program. This is the program’s highest recognition achievable, and FMOLHS shares this achievement with only two other health care organizations in the nation for 2024.
Additionally, FMOLHS has reached Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model (EMRAM) Stage 6 validation from the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS). This recognition highlights the health system’s successful use of electronic medical record technology to deliver positive clinical outcomes, enhance patient engagement, and support the system’s mission to improve health for the communities they serve.
Finally, the third recognition was awarded to the health system by the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME). FMOLHS has received the Acute Level 9 – Ambulatory Level 9 award after participating in the 2024 Digital Health Most Wired Survey. This grading comes after a thorough study of the health system’s digital health profile.
