Chesterfield MO., November 21, 2002: Unibased Systems Architecture (USA) accepted an agreement with Jewish Hospital of Louisville, Kentucky. Under the agreement, USA will upgrade its periOperative Charting System to enhance OR charting operations. These enhancements are targeted to specifically improve efficiency in the complex, high volume surgical environments at Jewish Hospital.

JHHS, a regional referral center noted recently for artificial heart implant surgery, has been using USAs RMS/ORMS since February 2001. The Hand Care Center at Jewish, the first hospital in the United States to provide state of the art, unique facilities specially designed and equipped to treat hand injuries and diseases, is recognized for the first successful hand transplant surgery. Speaking for JHHS, David C. Pecoraro, Vice President and Chief Information Officer stated, The USA product is the most impressive software and technology solution that I have experienced in my twenty years as CIO of Jewish Hospital." JHHS has estimated more than 1 million dollars in annualized cost savings in combination with increased patient volumes in a recent return on investment (ROI) report regarding the implementation and process refinement associated with USAs RMS/ORMS integrated product set.
