Bonner General Hospital and Boundary Community Hospital, community hospitals affiliated with Kootenai Health, run MEDITECH 6.08. An older version doesn't pause regulatory obligations, and it shouldn't stall improvement either. Purpose Health keeps the platform compliant and continuously optimized, improving patient care, physician satisfaction, and revenue recovery on the version the hospitals already own.
Bonner General and Boundary Community run on MEDITECH 6.08, an older version of the platform that regulators treat no differently from the newest one. EHR certification requirements, CMS Promoting Interoperability, eCQM measures, and public health reporting all keep advancing, and the hospitals' clinicians and revenue cycle still deserve a system that gets better every year. They needed a partner who could keep an older version compliant, and keep optimizing it.
Priority pack upgrades keep the platform compliant with EHR certification requirements and CMS PI and eCQM measures, alongside AU-AR implementation, NHSN respiratory reporting, and eCR reporting.
Upgraded the patient portal to meet WCAG 2.0 AA accessibility requirements, keeping the patient-facing front door compliant as well as the clinical core.
Bonner and Boundary now send lab tests to Kootenai Health for processing, recapturing revenue that previously went to outside reference lab testing.
A PMMC project improved recovery of bad debt, and a downtime reporting solution keeps care moving with ready reports during unplanned downtime.
When an inpatient transfers to a SNF under a new account, the routine moves medication and treatment orders into the new account for review and acceptance, improving patient safety and reducing provider burden.
EHR certification, CMS PI, eCQM, public health reporting, and WCAG 2.0 AA, met on the existing version.
Atlas integration routes lab tests to Kootenai instead of outside reference labs.
The PMMC project improved recovery of revenue previously written off.
Discharge transfer routine and downtime reporting protect patients and save provider time.
Two hospitals on MEDITECH 6.08, with regulatory requirements advancing and no plans to leave the version behind.
Priority packs, AU-AR, NHSN respiratory and eCR reporting, and a WCAG 2.0 AA portal upgrade keep every requirement met.
The Atlas project routes Bonner and Boundary lab tests to Kootenai for processing, reducing reference lab spend.
PMMC bad-debt recovery, downtime reporting, and the discharge transfer routine improve revenue, resilience, and safety.
An older version delivering new value: better patient care, physician satisfaction, and revenue recovery, year after year.
The same team that keeps the platform compliant keeps making it better, and the model applies to any MEDITECH organization maintaining an older version:
Platform veterans who know 6.08-era MEDITECH deeply.
Technical support across the full environment.
Maintained release after release, requirement after requirement.
Improves patient care, physician satisfaction, and revenue recovery.
