Hospital Name Changes in ESSENCE
Hi, team
FYI, the following hospital names have been updated in MFT and soon to be propagated into ESSENCE. The changes were made to ensure consistent naming convention for the hospitals under the same parent organization (Banner Health) and to remove some unwanted characters in their old names (Yavapai Regional Medical Center) that had caused some issues in reporting.
These changes should not cause any problems in terms of accessing the hospital data in ESSENCE based on some preliminary testing we have done last week but if you do experience any reporting issues that you believe are caused by the changes made this morning, please let us know and we will work with you to get things back to normal. Thank you!
