Memorial Hermann Healthcare Accomplishes Stage 6 of HIMSS Analytics

LPIT Solutions commends three of Memorial Hermann Healthcare System’s facilities for their attainment of Stage 6 in HIMSS Analytics EMR Adoption Model. They are three of 150 hospitals nationally recognized as sophisticated healthcare organizations.


Upon reaching Stage 6 the facilities of Memorial Hermann Katy, Memorial Hermann Southeast and Memorial Hermann Sugar Land are accepted as displaying significant progression in their IT proficiency. In addition, HIMMS officials distinguish Stage 6 hospitals for their advantageous capabilities of increased patient safety, support and recruitment for clinicians as well as competitive marketing for nurses and patients.

The EMR Adoption Model developed by HIMMS Analytics measures the advancement of employing information technology software applications and utilizing automated patient records. The hospitals achieving Stage 6 have almost entirely gone to electronic and paperless medical records and charting.
