Project Description:

Fraser Health is one of six health authorities in British Columbia. It provides clinical and community services across the care continuum to over 1.8 million people from Burnaby to Boston Bar and is the fastest growing health region in British Columbia. Fraser Health is responsible for a wide range of services including:

• 12 acute care hospitals
• outpatient care and day surgery center
• urgent care facilities
• over 7,760 long-term care beds
• mental health care & services
• public health services
• home health services
• community care services
  
  

With over 26,000 employees, 2,900 physicians and more than 6,000 volunteers who provide our services and support our patients, residents and clients, Fraser Health is continuously improving the way we deliver care. In support of its goals for better health, better care, improved patient experience and lower costs, Fraser Health will modernize a core clinical information system through the Advance program.

Advance seeks to improve the way we deliver care and the way patients experience care for better outcomes. The program focuses on re-imagining the clinical workflows for greater efficiencies and coordination across providers, enabled by the new Meditech Expanse platform. This transformation will increase automation and provide easier access to data to gain insights for improved patient care and in support of continuous quality improvements (CQI).

Today, Fraser Health runs a single database of MEDITECH Client/Server 5.67 across twelve acute care sites (total 2,500 beds) and one out-patient and day surgery center.

The implementation strategy for MEDITECH Expanse, as part of the Advance program will focus on implementing current functionality, as well as, advanced clinical system, with the target goal to roll-out across all 12 sites. The advanced clinical systems will include full nursing and allied electronic documentation, physician documentation, closed loop medication management and computerized clinician order entry. Subsequent phases will replicate this implementation across all acute sites and the out-patient and surgical day center.

MEDITECH Expanse will integrate with over 50 downstream systems. Many of these Integrations leverage the Fraser Health Enterprise Integration Platform, MS Biztalk. Use of Biztalk provides scalability, reusability and cost savings for interface development as Information from MEDITECH Client/Server and MEDITECH Expanse will need to flow to each downstream seamlessly.

Currently, the project is mid way thru build phase and wave 4 of site deployment. We are looking for Biztalk developer to implement interface between Expanse and many ancillary systems. The Biztalk developer will redesign and re-analyzed each interface based on the interface specifications of Expanse and target ancillary systems. Followed by redevelopment based on the establish architecture, development standard, and DevOp process.

The development stack is :

• Biztalk 2016,

• HL7v2
• C#,
• .NET 4.6
