Leading the charge
Searching for an electronic patient record (EPR) that supports interoperability, safety, and patient engagement initiatives, the Norfolk and Waveney Acute Hospital Collaborative selected MEDITECH’s Expanse EPR to implement across all three Trusts. The collaborative is eager to provide patients and staff with the opportunity to access benefits only made possible with emerging technologies and artificial intelligence. Patient engagement was a key objective in their clinical transformation programme, and the Trusts plan to introduce MEDITECH’s Expanse Patient Portal to serve as a digital front door for patients in the coming months following implementation.
At their specialty hospital Thompson Medical Centre, Thomson Medical Singapore recently went live with MEDITECH Expanse. With this hospital’s central focus being maternity care, they sought an EMR that would help to ensure the enhanced comfort and safety of mothers and babies as they transition between pre- and post-partum care. With advanced features such as the ability to link with the fetal heart monitor, Thomson Medical is undoubtedly taking the first steps toward enhancing care to meet the unique needs of its patient population and setting the standard for others to follow.
Long term MEDITECH customer, Namibia Institute of Pathology Limited (NIP) successfully implemented MEDITECH Expanse.

With all of their organistional needs met, they are excited to welcome a new era of patient care.
By selecting MEDITECH Expanse as its foundational EMR, St. Vincent’s Health Australia Private Hospitals now has a single platform to connect patient data across its 10 private hospitals.

Ranked by patients as one of London’s top private hospitals, longtime customer New Victoria Hospital has signed for MEDITECH Expanse EPR. They have been quick to embrace advancing technologies, as the hospital recognises the power that digital tools have in the healthcare space. With the addition of Expanse, the organisation is not only looking to streamline processes and reduce clinical workloads, but demonstrate a renewed commitment to patient engagement. They have opted to introduce a patient portal to allow patients access to their health records, and increase time savings for patients and clinicians with electronic forms and questionnaires.
East Cheshire NHS Trust and Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust are working together on the project that will replace their current paper-based records with one modern and comprehensive source of information, known as the Digital Clinical System (DCS).
