Geisinger Health System

Monday Aug 03, 2009

As we have all heard, there is non-stop talk about Healthcare in politics.  But.....did you hear that President Obama referred to Geisinger Health System as an "island of excellence"?  Geisinger Health System was a former SeeBeyond customer and remains a loyal customer to Sun.  Learn more about what they have been doing to achieve their success!

More on what President Obama had to say:

"In describing what he wanted to do, the president said that his plan would be guided by a simple principle: Fix what’s broken and build on what works. Later, he specifically mentioned 452-bed Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, 453-bed Tallahassee (Fla.) Memorial HealthCare, Geisinger Health System, Danville, Pa., and Intermountain Healthcare, Salt Lake City, as “islands of excellence” that have to be replicated elsewhere."
