Portland, Oregon-based OCHIN announced its entrance into acute care this week with a full-service inpatient electronic health record system that supports interdisciplinary care plans and clinical care coordination in an effort to focus on helping smaller hospitals nationwide.

The nonprofit, health equity-focused national provider network said it analyzed gaps in rural healthcare delivery and is launching OCHIN Epic for acute care to provide patients with connected care and hospitals an opportunity to recruit more skilled talent, Healthcare IT reports.

“Implementing a new EHR system is significant for any healthcare organization, and it’s especially important for rural hospitals to have the unique tools and technology that will enable them to increase their communities’ access to high quality, connected care,” Kim Klupenger, OCHIN’s chief experience officer, said in a statement.
