MEDITECH is celebrating its 45th year in business! A longtime leader in the health IT industry, we’ve built our reputation on providing integrated software and service for acute, ambulatory, long-term care, and home care settings.
MEDITECH was founded on August 4, 1969, by the innovator of the MUMPS programming language, A. Neil Pappalardo. Today, we have over 4,000 employees, spread across nine facilities in Massachusetts, two in Minnesota, and one in Atlanta.
“Our solutions have been inspiring quality patient care and safety for 45 years, which is something all of us at MEDITECH are proud of,” says Executive Vice President of Strategy and Marketing Hoda Sayed-Friel. “It’s very exciting to see how far we’ve come, especially now that we’re moving forward with our revolutionary new web platform, featuring the industry’s first complete healthcare information system with a fully integrated web-based EHR.”
MEDITECH currently has over 2,300 customers in 25 countries worldwide, including hundreds that have been with the company for over two decades. President and CEO Howard Messing believes that the relationships we’ve cultivated over the years have helped us to evolve along with customer needs.
“The entire healthcare industry has been transforming, and more is expected of all of us today — especially in the areas of quality, outcomes, transitions of care, and interoperability,” he says. “At the same time, our customers have always inspired us to do more and to do it better. I look forward to what the future brings for us, and to many more years of collaboration.”
