Sisters of St. Francis go live with Zynx Health

Sisters of St. Francis Health Services (SSFHS), a Mishawaka, Ind.-based health network, has deployed clinical decision support company Zynx Health’s ZynxOrder to consolidate and standardize evidence-based order sets for use across its 13 hospitals and healthcare centers.

The interactive PDF order sets, along with Zynx evidence-based best practice recommendations, will prepare physicians and clinicians at SSFHS for when they achieve full use of computerized physician order entry, said the Los Angeles-based Zynx.

ZynxOrder’s online collaboration environment will enable SSFHS to draft order sets electronically and have one place where clinicians can review, post comments and reach consensus before order sets are implemented across the network, the company said.
