7/1/09 - Oaklawn Psychiatric Center (Goshen, IN)

Posted on August 04 2009 in Go Live Alerts

We are excited to announce that Oaklawn Psychiatric Center in Goshen, Indiana, recently went “live” on Qualifacts’ CareLogic EHR and billing system, transitioning from CMHC and adding 500 users to the system. Oaklawn specializes in residential services for children and adolescents,inpatient care for seniors, and treatment for adults with serious and persistent mental illness and addictions.

Oaklawn is using CareLogic to meet its’ complex funding and billing requirements and helped Qualifacts develop additional features to support their 78-bed inpatient psychiatric hospital, including enhancements to the integrated MAR (Medication Administration Record).

“We went live with CareLogic on July 1, marking the beginning of an important transition for Oaklawn. Training nearly 500 people who are working in an electronic environment for the first time was a challenge, but we are slowly re-thinking virtually all of our workflow and are very optimistic about the potential this change brings.

“Our access to clinical information will be improved, which is critical in our 24/7 programs, and the safeguards built into the system will clean up our billing processes and protect us from audit risk. Qualifacts has been a good partner throughout the planning and implementation process, making the necessary changes to accommodate our complex funding and billing scenarios. I speak for everyone in saying that we truly appreciated the on-site support during the first days of July.”
