It’s a debate as old as IT itself — best of breed versus enterprise. In healthcare, that timeless decision usually surfaces in the emergency department, where workflow is incredibly specialized and applications from core clinical vendors usually don’t make the grade. But if niche solutions carry the day, it’s the CIO’s job to make sure the ED doesn’t become an island outside the hospital’s information flow. Marian Moran, CIO at St. Mary Medical Center in Bucks County Pennsylvania, recently decided to go niche, selecting Picis as her ED system to complement a core Meditech environment. To learn more about how Moran will keep the right data flowing to the right places, healthsystemCIO.com editor Anthony Guerra recently chatted with the CIO.
