Cardiac centers are required to collect and process huge amounts of data on a daily basis. That data
needs to be entered quickly and accurately into medical information systems. With Verity
TeleForm, Sutter Pacific Heart Centers can now quickly capture and integrate the information into an
existing database, allowing physicians access to make timely diagnoses and deliver the
best possible treatment. In addition, the Verity TeleForm solution has enhanced the hospital’s
ability to produce quarterly data reports on a range of treatment performance topics required by
two national cardiac benchmark registries, the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the
Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS).
