What do you like best about Meditech Expanse?

Very user-friendly, ample short-codes allowing minimization of clicking when verifying orders. System has more functions than anyone really realizes, also minimizing the need to call nurses or providers to obtain certain information about the patients. Very easy access to physician and nurses’ progress notes, enabling pharmacists to determine specific indications of drug treatments, leading to optimization of the treatments especially for per-pharmacy protocol treatments. Any necessary changes are also easily made in the system. For example, a message can be generated to the MD ordering a backordered drug, informing the MD to order an alternative drug or call pharmacy for recommendations. Its messaging system is very useful as well; the nurses and pharmacists can communicate through messages effectively, minimizing the call volume to the pharmacy and nursing units. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meditech Expanse?

It tends to be slow (slower on some days) and freezes every now and then. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Meditech Expanse:

The interface seems archaic and very old-school, but it is a very user-friendly (maybe espcially pharmacist-friendly) system that will meet most needs. The short-codes maximize the productivity and speed of pharmacists, which is at times vital in patient care especially in hospital setting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Meditech Expanse solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is used in a very clinical setting at a hospital, therefore not familiar if it is addressing any business problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use i.e. now "check-off" boxes are included, then one can scroll down to a case note field to elaborate or summarize the checked boxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Can be a bit lengthy due to the all-encompassing options. Maybe a "narrow-casted" filed selection would be a thing for future consideration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Meditech Expanse solving and how is that benefiting you?

Any member of a patients care-team can quickly look up previous notes/comments, if face-to-face reports are not possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Meditech Expanse?

The laboratory module feels like it was developed in sections independent of eachother and put together my a 7th grade computer class. To find a mother's blood type for a cord blood workup I have to click on 15 different things. Bringing in units is a pain as each one has to be brought in individually. You should be able to scan multiple units at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
