We’re changing to a new and innovative electronic health record (EHR) system.
One Patient, One Record
Our new system creates a single and continuously updated electronic health record for each patient.
- No more bulky paper charts
- No more duplicate records scattered across different locations
- Your health record is complete, legible and always available
In the Right Hands, at the Right Time
When you visit a Mercy physician office or hospital using the new system, health care providers will have the information they need to serve you.
- After your initial visit, you won’t need to fill out as many forms
- No need to remember when you last had a test or treatment at one of our facilities
- Doctors have more complete picture of your medical history, test results and medications
Tools to Better Manage Your Health Care
Our new system creates a single and continuously updated electronic health record for each patient.
- Alerts notify your doctor of your allergies or a possible interaction with other drugs you’re taking
- Printed summaries highlight your doctor’s instructions or times for follow-up appointments
- In the future, your may have the option to use your computer to schedule appointments, view test results or request prescriptions renewals
The Mercy Difference
Of course, no amount of technology will ever replace the human touch, but St. John’s Mercy’s new electronic health record system is an innovative tool that helps us fulfill our commitment to serving patients with the highest levels of safety, quality care and personal service. Our new electronic health record system is just one small part of “the Mercy difference.”
It really is all about you!
