In an effort to enhance patient safety, Panorama City Hospital, a Kaiser Permanente (KP) care facility operating in Southern California has become the first KP hospital to implement medication bar code scanning. The current implementation is part of the final phase installation of KP HealthConnect TM at Panorama City.
Using this technology, physicians at Panorama can access the bar coded patient information from the bedside KP HealthConnect™ computer terminal, confirming the accuracy of the medication type and dosage. KP HealthConnect™, a comprehensive EMR designed to enhance patient safety and quality care went live at the Panorama City hospital in September 2007.
