Clinically intelligent choice - In brief - Christian Hospital uses McKesson's Horizon Lab - Brief Article

Medical Laboratory Observer, Nov, 2001

Christian Hospital, a 676-bed facility in St. Louis County, MO, has selected McKesson's Horizon Lab system to handle its laboratory information system needs. Christian Hospital's reference lab supports more than 600 physicians and processes an average of 13,500 results a day. The institution based its decision partly on the expert microbiology function of the system.

The clinically intelligent Horizon Lab system works interactively with the microbiologist and prompts the user for appropriate information based on the identified organism and the labs required information flow.
