VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW), the global leader in virtualization and cloud infrastructure, today announced growing momentum for desktop virtualization with VMware View™ as healthcare organizations look to safely accelerate the adoption of Electronic Health Records (EHR/EMR) systems and meet “Meaningful Use” targets.
The healthcare industry is in the midst of a major transformation and the holistic adoption of connected EMR infrastructure holds the promise of improving patient safety, quality of care and cost-effectiveness of healthcare delivery. Incentives offered by the United States federal government from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) along with the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) act have resulted in a surge of new EMR, computerized physician order entry (CPOE) and overall IT modernization. This growth has spurred the proliferation of point of care devices increasing the number of client machines that will need to be managed and maintained.
To help manage these devices many healthcare organizations are looking towards virtualization solutions to help them deliver EMR and CPOE to clinicians as managed services from a hospital’s private cloud or datacenter. VMware View makes it easier for clinicians to access EMR systems and patient data helping healthcare organizations attain meaningful use and start qualifying for stimulus funding. Centralized virtual desktops and applications are immediately accessible from any end-point device allowing clinicians to move freely throughout the healthcare facility as they treat patients.
