Regional network interests government
EHR Connection, December 6, 2004
The government is interested in the Spokane, WA-based Inland Northwest Health Services (INHS) electronic medical records network, according to the Spokane Journal of Business.
INHS' record network serves 2.6 million patients at 32 hospitals in Washington and Idaho, and CEO Tom Fritz discussed INHS' records system with White House technology advisers last month.
Fritz told the Journal he hopes INHS will be selected as a regional network. If selected, INHS will receive federal funding to expand the record system and serve more hospitals and patients.
