Signify Premium Insight: Respite for Oracle Cerner with $365M Nova Scotia EHR Deal
Published: February 9, 2023
Good news has been in relatively short supply for Oracle Cerner over the past year. The EHR giant continues to yield share (chiefly to Epic) in the US; it is mired in a problematic $18B EHR implementation for the US Veterans’ Association (VA); and must grapple with German multinational SAP’s decision to cease technical support for its i.s.h.med solution in 2030.
Last week’s announcement, then, that its Canadian division has landed a $365M deal to design, build and maintain an integrated electronic care record in Nova Scotia is very welcome.
