Door County Memorial Hospital Recognized

• Door County Memorial Hospital/Ministry Health Care (DCMH/MHC) will be nationally recognized as one of the “most wired small and rural hospitals” in the country. The recognition is awarded by Hospitals & Health Networks (H&HN) magazine’s Health Care’s Most Wired 2010 survey, published by the American Hospital Association.

The “most wired” organizations are hospitals that scored the highest on survey questions regarding information technology (IT). DCMH/MHC is one of just 25 small and rural hospitals nationwide to earn the honor.

“This really says a lot about the people who spent so much time working to put together the electronic medical record. It shows where we are compared to the rest of the country’s small and rural hospitals and that we are in a leadership role,” said Gerald Worrick, DCMH/MHC’s President and CEO.

“Our goal is to meet requirements the federal government has set for hospitals to be fully electronic by 2017. Right now, we are ahead of that,” he continued.

DCMH/MHC will receive national visibility in H&HN’s July magazine and on their website, http://www.hhnmag.com. Mary Lopas, the hospital’s chief Information Officer, who heads up IT, diagnostic imaging, and the laboratory, will accept the award July 24 in San Diego.

This is the seventh year DCMH/MHC has completed the “most wired” survey. In 2008, the hospital earned a “most improved” award, a designation that recognizes health care organizations whose IT scores improved the most.
