Epic replaces Paragon at Oconee Memorial

At Oconee Memorial Hospital, one electronic record-keeping system will replace another.  Hunter Kome, president of the Oconee Medical Campus, announced recently that the switch to Epic will take place on October 1.  “It’s a single data-based electronic medical record system.”  Speaking to the OMH Holdings Board, Kome said, “What that means is that each patient has one record of regardless of the site of care, regardless of where care is provided.”  Epic replaces the Paragon electronic medical record system that Oconee Memorial implemented three years ago before its affiliation with Greenville Health System.
