SMCH and InterOperability Bidco, Inc. dba Rhapsody (Rhapsody) entered into an agreement to provide a single record for our patients and clients.
In November 2024, SMCH implemented a new EHR system that will ultimately centralize all our patients' and clients' information into one system once all divisions are incorporated into the new system.

Rhapsody's Enterprise Master Person Index (EMPI) is currently providing the solution to maintain a single best demographic record for each patient/client in our legacy EHR systems and Epic to ensure one record.

The resolution contains the County's standard provisions allowing amendment of the County's fiscal obligations by a maximum of $25,000 (in aggregate).
ISD has reviewed and approved the IT component of this agreement.
