From Kansas City to the United Kingdom, Cerner technology helps clients rapidly vaccinate communities without sacrificing safety checks
As COVID-19 vaccinations are underway globally, health care professionals face a historic task on a scale and speed not seen before. Cerner is proud to provide health technology and support to help hospitals manage COVID-19 mass vaccination events that are critical to getting the pandemic under control.
Last week, Cerner provided the physical location, technology, support and approximately 400 associate volunteers to make a mass vaccination event possible for Kansas City area communities. Cerner joined Operation Safe, a local county-wide coalition dedicated to vaccinating residents. The coalition of several municipalities, hospitals and Cerner anticipates vaccinating 4,500 individuals every other week and is prepared to increase the volume to 3,500 per day as more vaccines become available.
In early 2020 as cases were on the rise worldwide, Cerner began preparing for COVID-19 vaccines by reaching out to clients big and small, urban and rural to make sure they had the technology necessary to be ready for a large-scale vaccination effort. With many hospital and health system clients playing a community-wide vaccination role, they would need a patient-first strategy that included technology outside of the core electronic health record (EHR). Cerner prepared a list of various recommendations to help U.S. and non-U.S. clients use their technology for patient outreach, scheduling opportunities, clinician administration best practices, billing, and reporting and analytics tracking post vaccine.
In addition, Cerner provided hospitals with its Mass Vaccination solution to supplement rapid vaccination of frontline staff and patients without sacrificing safety checks or administration documentation. The Mass Vaccination solution helps clinicians register patients and identify, administer and record vaccination. The new solution gives clinicians the relevant information from the EHR, helping to streamline the process to screen for and administer vaccines while flagging important information like drug and allergy interactions.
Below are examples of clients from around the world using Cerner technology to aid in the COVID-19 vaccine rollout:
Having the right health technology is critically important to support health care professionals as they take on this monumental task. Cerner has years of experience helping clients with large-scale immunization campaigns, making sure hospitals and health systems are armed with solutions and infrastructure to successfully and quickly get vaccine doses “in arms” and track details for the appropriate health agencies. Cerner has the privilege of bringing together knowledge gleaned from supporting global health care organizations and applying it to improve vaccination efforts in its local community and around the world. It is vital that communities across the globe join together to do their part to beat COVID-19.
