Children’s Medical Center
Overview
Children’s Medical Center (Children’s) is a private, not-for-profit
hospital, and is one of the largest pediatric healthcare providers in
the nation. Children’s provides patient care ranging from simple eye
exams to specialized treatment in areas such as heart disease,
hematology-oncology and cystic fibrosis. In addition, Children’s is a
major pediatric kidney, liver, intestine, heart and bone marrow
transplant center.
Children’s was in the process of migrating from a Legacy Cerner Health
Care Information Technology Platform to an EPIC based Platform. This
was a major undertaking in terms of cost, effort and resources. This
major effort not only involved significant functional and development
expertise to ensure all the existing Cerner functionality is migrated
over to EPIC but also required testing expertise to ensure that they
deliver a quality product to their end users.
To manage this testing effort, Children’s had acquired the HP/Mercury
Quality Management Suite of products. Children’s engaged Advanced QA to
assist them in implementing all these tools effectively and relied on
our expertise and best practices to realize the maximum potential of
these testing products.
