Salar, Inc. Wins Contract to Revolutionize The George Washington University Hospital's Paper-based Documentation Process

by Joan Trombetti, Writer
Salar, Inc., a software company whose goal is to improve the clinical documentation process, announced The George Washington University Hospital has selected Salar, Inc. to revolutionize the hospital's paper-based clinical documentation process.

Under a multi-year licensing agreement, GW Hospital will license Salar's TeamNotesTM and TeamQueryTM for its clinicians -- attending physicians, residents, interns, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and medical students -- for all hospital inpatient admissions, excluding labor and delivery.

Prior to TeamNotes, these clinicians documented their patient encounters on paper or used an electronic system that was not interfaced with any of the hospital's current information systems, and only captured part of the necessary documentation. By deploying Salar's suite of innovative clinical documentation and concurrent review tools, GW Hospital not only empowers its users to capture their notes electronically, but enables them to adhere to industry-wide and CMS clinical documentation standards.

Gretchen Tegethoff, MSIST CIO/Director, Information Technology, GW Hospital states, "By overlaying TeamNotes with our existing IT systems we have established a completely seamless, paperless, user-friendly experience that works with every type of documentation, keeps our doctors happy and, as important, keeps our records in compliance."
