A Google search for “success in healthcare” produces an astounding 735 million results, showing that it’s a highly subjective concept. But with a quick review of the top search results, you’ll start to see a number of fundamental ideas come into focus:  - First (and, I would argue, most importantly), healthcare organizations measure their achievements by [how they help patients](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/patient-engagement) - A very close second is how they [support their staff](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/clinical-decision-support) - And third, but by no means least, is their [financial bottom line](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/meditechs-revenue-cycle). Juggling all of these priorities while ensuring a high level of quality is a massive undertaking — and at MEDITECH, we know that organizations need the [right tools](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions) to help them in this mission. We also understand that every customer is different, and they each have their own challenges and criteria for what success means to them.  Here are five inspiring stories of MEDITECH customers who determined their vision of success — and are making it a reality. [Anderson Hospital’s strategy to remain independent affords better community care](https://blog.meditech.com/anderson-hospitals-strategy-to-remain-independent-affords-better-community-care) In this blog, Chief of Information Technology Mike Ward explains how [Anderson Hospital](https://www.andersonhospital.org/) has succeeded as the region’s only independent healthcare provider. He credits investments in three areas that he says “contribute to our success as an independent organization: expansion, community engagement, and the best tools for staff and patients to ensure positive outcomes.” Ward explains that implementing [Expanse](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/meditech-expanse) in all of their affiliated locations was “a key strategic move to control costs” and ensure consistent quality care for all of their patients. [How NMC Health leverages data with BCA dashboards [Infographic]](https://blog.meditech.com/how-nmc-health-leverages-data-with-bca-dashboards-infographic) Amid the [COVID-19 outbreak](https://ehr.meditech.com/covid-19-resources), the leadership at NMC Health knew that they needed timely access to important data so they could respond effectively to the needs of both patients and staff.  By using dashboards in MEDITECH’s [Business and Clinical Analytics](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/meditech-business-clinical-analytics) solution and working with [MEDITECH Professional Services](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/meditech-professional-services), NMC Health eliminated time-consuming manual data entry and gave its providers a single source of information about patients, test results, and PPE stocks.

That’s the case with[ Lane Regional Medical Center](https://www.lanermc.org/), where their providers have recently moved to [Expanse Patient Care](https://ehr.meditech.com/ehr-solutions/meditech-nursing) and have already seen improvements in ED hand-offs, patient transitions into and out of the ED, and staff shift changes. Jessica Troxclair, Lane’s Nurse Clinical Informatics Specialist, explains how Lane’s emergency staff once depended on faxes and handwritten notes and now can use the latest documentation tools to avoid adverse events and improve communication among the care team.  [Val Verde Regional’s patients stay engaged at home through Expanse Remote Patient Monitoring](https://blog.meditech.com/val-verde-regional-patients-stay-engaged-at-home-through-expanse-remote-patient-monitoring-0) For older patients and those managing chronic conditions, traveling to and from appointments can be a significant barrier to getting the right care — and with COVID-19 forcing many people to stay home, [Val Verde Regional Medical Center](https://www.vvrmc.org/) decided to take steps to reduce that burden. By expanding cellular connections to Del Rio households without broadband access and enabling patients to take their own glucose and blood pressure readings through [Expanse Remote Monitoring](https://ehr.meditech.com/news/val-verde-regional-medical-center-keeps-patients-engaged-at-home-through-expanse-remote-patient), Val Verde increased patient engagement and made care more accessible, providing what CIO Keith Willey termed “an essential tool for us to strengthen the ties between clinicians and patients.” --- **Read how customers are forging ahead with Expanse, our fully interoperable, web-based platform.** [![View The Innovators Booklet](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/2897117/5230d784-296e-47df-96e2-88aab7a25cab.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/2897117/5230d784-296e-47df-96e2-88aab7a25cab) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ### Written by [Carol Bird, Senior Manager, Content, Branding & Digital Marketing, MEDITECH](https://blog.meditech.com/author/carol-bird-senior-manager-branding-digital-marketing-meditech) For more than two decades, Carol Bird has helped shape the evolution of MEDITECH's marketing and communications strategy, managing the deep bench of content developers, editors, and project coordinators responsible for the company’s digital marketing and branding efforts.
