Mountain Health Network (MHN), a West Virginia-based not-for-profit health system with nearly 700 beds at two teaching hospitals, today announced its selection of Avaap, an Infor partner specializing in Healthcare solution delivery; The Chartis Group, a leading healthcare advisory and analytics firm; and Infor, a global leader in business cloud software specialized by industry, to implement Infor CloudSuite ERP and advance MHN’s goal of being a world-class health system.
MHN has embarked on the partnership to drive digital transformation across its delivery system. The project links MHN’s Cerner EHR with Infor ERP for a single, integrated platform that will provide real-time data to support decision-making, quality patient care and affordability.
Infor ERP was selected over other platforms largely because of its healthcare-specific functionality, including TrueCost and Clinical Bridge™, and Infor’s ability to simplify cost accounting and cost analytics in the cloud. The Chartis Group, awarded three Best in KLAS Awards in 2021, was selected for its deep experience in leading complex projects, ERP programs, governance, and change management. The Chartis Group’s leadership will enable MHN to leverage leading practices and achieve its target ROI in an aggressive timeline. Renowned for its technical expertise with Infor, Avaap was selected to lead the technical implementation, which will connect MHN’s systems with its business strategy.
“The Infor ERP CloudSuite platform will help MHN bring together clinical, operational, financial, and resource planning data to more accurately quantify opportunity costs across our network, provide better visibility into the cost of care at the patient level, enable supply chain digitization, and facilitate mobile workforce management,” said Mountain Health Network Chief Information Officer Dennis Lee. “The three-way partnership, in alignment with our mission and vision, will help ensure our clinical and operating models are positioned for stability and growth in the future. The Chartis Group understands our unique business goals and the impact of COVID-19 and is positioned well to help us accelerate the pace in 2021 to meet our objectives. With more Infor cloud implementations than any other technology consulting firm, Avaap is equipped to deliver an efficient implementation and keep us on track in achieving a successful go-live.”
Healthcare organizations that achieve interoperability across clinical and operations systems (including supply chain, finance, and human capital management) are able to make real-time, data-based decisions and efficient, collaborative processes that position our health system for the new era of healthcare delivery. MHN anticipates going live on Infor CloudSuite ERP in the fall of 2021.
