What Endeavor Health’s latest technology means for our patients

At Endeavor Health, our vision is safe, seamless and personal. Every person, every time.

Now, we've reached another major milestone on that journey. This month, we completed our multi-year initiative to bring all of Endeavor Health onto a single, unified electronic health record platform.

When we first came together as one Endeavor Health system, our hospitals and clinics operated on three separate electronic health record environments. While each functioned well independently, operating multiple systems created some boundaries. A patient visiting an Endeavor Health specialist in one community and a hospital in another might have navigated multiple patient portals, repeated their medical history, or managed separate accounts.

Having one electronic health record helps clear away administrative friction and enables patients to more easily navigate their care, providing smoother access to the services they need. In addition, our extraordinary caregivers can now seamlessly collaborate on their patients' care across our system.

Now, whether you visit an Endeavor Health office near your home or go to one of our nine hospitals across the region, your care is fully connected. You have one unified MyChart portal and a single comprehensive health record that travels with you. Your doctors and care teams have immediate access to your complete health history, medication records, and test results in real time, enabling safer, more coordinated and more personalized care.

When healthcare technology is designed and implemented with purpose, it quietly fades into the background; so, despite the months of planning behind this project, you may never hear about it again. And though this was a major technology project, the work to get to this point doesn't happen in server rooms. It happens at nurses' stations, in clinic exam rooms, at registration desks and across collaborative planning sessions.

Transitioning an enterprise of this size while continuing to deliver safe, high-quality care 24/7 is an extraordinary operational achievement. It represents teamwork across Endeavor Health at its best, taking the strength, talent, and resources of our expanded scale and channeling them directly into a seamless standard of care.

Thank you to our patients for continuing to entrust Endeavor Health with their care; and thank you to our clinical partners, physicians, nurses, operational leaders, informatics specialists, and IT teams across all regions who embraced change, championed new workflows and supported one another with patience.

Above all else, they kept our patients at the heart of every decision.
