Pioneers Medical Center will be using MEDITECH Expanse as our web-based Electronic Heath Record (EHR). This fully mobile, web-based EHR solution allows our healthcare professionals to provide a more comprehensive view of your medical history that can be accessed by any of our other doctors, nurses and clinicians. Since this platform is cloud-based, our team can access your patient records, place orders and document your care at any time, from any location, on any device. MEDITECH Expanse allows PMC to elevate the quality of care we provide while providing a better patient experience.
What Is an Electronic Health Record (EHR) System?
An Electronic Health Record (EHR) system provides a platform where your medical history can be stored digitally by your healthcare provider. It ensures that your physician is always kept up to date with your medical history, recent conditions and test results, regardless of where you last received care.
MEDITECH is the most commonly used EHR among rural, critical access hospitals. Their system allows for better tracking of your health progress with the help of virtual visits and remote monitoring.

Clinicians ranked their satisfaction with MEDITECH’s personalization abilities 8.4 on a 0 to 9 scale, higher than any other vendor
87% of small community hospitals are satisfied or very satisfied with MEDITECH’s EHR platform
MEDITECH was named the number 1 acute care EMR, patient accounting and patient management platform for community hospitals

How Does Our Adoption of MEDITECH Expanse Benefit Our Patients?
Simply put, MEDITECH provides a better patient experience. You’ll receive a variety of benefits from our adoption of the MEDITECH Expanse EHR platform:
Early Detection – Your doctors will be able to identify subtle changes in your condition and take action before these issues become more serious and difficult to manage.
Improved Patient Safety – You’ll have one medication record, one allergy record and one EHR across all care settings. This ensures all care providers have accurate, up-to-date information.
