- Main Line Health, which serves the Philadelphia area, has completed medical device implementation into its new Epic electronic health record system at its four acute care hospitals. Clinical surveillance and a real-time data analytics platform also now are in place.

The integration will impact more than 450 beds, including intensive care units, emergency departments and neonatal intensive care.
- The Menninger Clinic, a Texas-based mental health care delivery system, will adopt the Cerner electronic medical record as well as the vendor’s behavioral health software. Cerner’s web portal will enable patients and families to view their health information, share self-reported information, schedule appointments and securely message providers. Menninger also will implement revenue cycle management modules.
