Electronic Medical Record (EMR) System
The purpose of this Request for Proposal is to solicit sealed proposals to establish a contract or contracts through competitive negotiation for the provision of a comprehensive Electronic Medical Record (EMR) System capable of fulfilling the present and future needs of the Health Services Branch of the Fairfax County Sheriff's Office, Adult Detention Center. The goal of this system is to assist professional care providers by providing real time access to electronic medical records, scheduling and housing information to increase staff efficiency by eliminating various redundant manual tasks, thereby eliminating potential errors. The Fairfax County Sheriff's Office is accredited by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care (NCCHC), the American Correctional Association (ACA), and Virginia Department of Corrections. The EMR system will be implemented as a "day forward" system of record and the Sheriff's Office does not plan to import prior medical records into the system. The system must provide a method to associate the known storage location of any prior paper-based medical records.
