APY, Valley View Regional Hospital Signs Agreement to Upgrade Aspyra LIS, AP and RIS
Aspyra, Inc. (AMEX:APY Medical Stock News) announced today that the Company has
entered into an agreement with Valley View Regional Hospital (VVRH), a
142-licensed bed facility located in Ada, Oklahoma, to upgrade the
hospital’s laboratory and imaging department systems to the most current
release of Aspyra’s CyberLAB Laboratory Information System (LIS),
CyberPATH Anatomic Pathology (AP) System and CyberRAD Radiology
Information System (RIS) solutions.
VVRH has been an Aspyra customer since 2002. The hospital, managed by
Mercy Health System of Oklahoma, serves the city of Ada, as well as
surrounding counties in south central and parts of southeastern
Oklahoma. In addition to the main location, the hospital operates a
satellite clinic located in Stratford, Oklahoma.
“We are looking forward to implementation of our upgrade to CyberLAB
7.2, as well as the latest versions of CyberPATH AP and CyberRAD RIS,”
stated Cheryl Weems, VVRH Laboratory Director. She continued, “We are
especially excited about the enhancements to the result
auto-verification in the lab module, as it will help to prevent medical
errors and improve report turnaround. We will institute this process as
soon as possible once we are live on the new release.”
“In addition to the efficiencies gained within the laboratory, Valley
View Regional’s imaging department will experience similar results with
the RIS upgrade,” stated Michelle Del Guercio, Aspyra’s Vice President
of Marketing and Product Management. She continued, “The upgrade will
enable the facility to eliminate redundant entries by integrating the
Aspyra RIS with the hospital’s current PACS, capture additional
pre-authorization information and schedule patients with ease using the
enhanced room scheduling module.”
Valley View Regional Hospital will be implementing CyberLAB version 7.2
and CyberRAD version 5.4 on a Windows platform, utilizing a MS SQL
database structure. CyberLAB LIS features decision support tools with
auto-verification, automated clinical reporting and multisite
management. CyberRAD RIS features complete departmental solutions for a
busy hospital imaging department or center.
