Covenant Health taps Wolters Kluwer to standardise care with UpToDate Advanced and Lexicomp -

Wolters Kluwer, Health has announced that Covenant Health, a 10-hospital health system based in Knoxville, Tennessee, has added UpToDate® Advanced and Lexicomp®, its evidence-based interactive clinical decision support and drug information tools. The regional healthcare network opted to expand its long time access to UpToDate at one hospital to all 10, as well as to approximately 100 clinics, spanning 23 counties in East Tennessee.

UpToDate Advanced equips Covenant Health providers with interactive clinical pathways to help make appropriate decisions related to specific clinical questions. The solution’s Lab Interpretation feature helps clinicians quickly analyse abnormal lab results and decide on next steps while helping to reduce unnecessary testing and prevent missed diagnoses. Lexicomp provides pharmacists, physicians and nurses with access to clear, concise, point-of-care drug information. Clinicians can quickly locate information on a range of harmonized clinical and drug topics and easily link between both resources, saving clinicians precious time.

UpToDate Advanced is used by nearly 700 hospitals and health systems in 25 countries. Additionally, 18,000 individual subscribers in 139 countries also leverage the interactive pathways. Lexicomp is used by over 2,400 hospitals and health systems worldwide.
