These are exciting times for those interested in transforming the way that healthcare is delivered in this country. As a leading provider of healthcare information technology, Cerner Corporation is pleased to have an opportunity to play a role in such a monumental undertaking. With the adoption of electronic medical records being a major focus, we view the Regional Extension Centers (RECs) as a key catalyst for change. As such, we look forward to establishing strong relationships with RECs across the country to support their mission and drive value through automation.
As you set out on your mission of driving increased adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHR) across primary care providers within your region, Cerner is well-positioned to be a partner to both you and the healthcare providers you serve. By partnering with Cerner, physician practices, rural health clinics, community health centers and critical access hospitals will gain the experience of our 900 on-staff clinicians, and enjoy the benefits of more than $1.5 billion annually spent on research and development. Working together with providers at more than 8,000 sites worldwide, Cerner is solving healthcare’s many challenges by ensuring the right people have the right information at the right time. Building on 30 years of experience, Cerner is finding new and innovative ways to deliver value to healthcare organizations across the world, enabling them to safely and efficiently deliver patient care and improve clinical and operational outcomes.
Cerner offers physician practices, rural health clinics, community health centers and critical access hospitals solutions via an application service provider (ASP) model and the connectivity of the worldwide Internet. Under ASP delivery, users and providers can access solutions from any high-speed Internet connection, meaning patient information is available anytime and from anywhere to ensure better clinical decision-making when providers need information the most.
