St. Clair Hospital Receives National Designation

St. Clair Hospital in Mt. Lebanon is one of six hospitals in the United States to receive the "Stage 6" designation from HIMSS Analytics, the leading healthcare information technology market research firm.

Stage 6 is a classification of hospitals that have successfully implemented information technologies across a multitude of systems, including electronic medical records, to improve quality, patient safety and planning for future business changes.

The designation was announced in a publication, "Stage 6 Hospitals: The Journey and the Accomplishments," by HIMSS Analytics, a subsidiary of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society. The study assessed more than 4,300 hospitals nationally.
