A while back, we shared nominating information for our Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Awards. With our CIO and IS EVP, B.J. Moore, being part of the reporting structure of PSJH CFO and EVP, Venkat Bhamidipati, our organization is eligible for this award honoring excellence in the CFO pillar areas of People, Excellence, and Insights, as well as demonstrating our PSJH value and Mission-focused mindset in our work.
The Epic Lab and IS Laboratory Applications teams were honored with the Q3 2019 CFO Award for Excellence for their terrific efforts driving our application rationalization project, and their work to fix massive backlogs, improve customer satisfaction, and establish trust in Epic and Cerner. As part of their honor, they received a team celebration for their accomplishments, as well as some well-deserved extra personal time off.
As Venkat’s announcement memo called out:
In the last year, the IS Epic Lab team managed the IS tickets down from 1,400 tickets to below 200, and significantly improved customer satisfaction in the Epic Lab, Cerner and HCLL applications. At the same time the team has been growing Beaker, Cerner and HCLL to significantly streamline the laboratory applications at Providence, thus saving countless hours and a significant amount of money. We are now officially 2 lab information systems for Legacy Providence/Swedish and Facey/Pacmed, and we have a plan in place to continue to Kadlec and St. Joseph. The team’s significantly improved production support numbers and streamlined lab application portfolio have made us more nimble for future endeavors!
