DUBAI, UAE – Medcare Orthopaedics and Spine Hospital, the premium orthopaedic specialty facility in the UAE, has gone live with InterSystems TrakCare unified healthcare information system to digitalize and unify care delivery and enhance patient experience. The JCI-accredited facility – dedicated to comprehensive management of diseases, disorders, and injuries of the musculoskeletal system and spine is one the most technologically advanced healthcare facilities in the UAE.

“We are on a mission to deliver the most exceptional patient care and unparalleled clinical services to our patients. Partnering with InterSystems was a strategic decision for us, and we are pleased with the successful Go-live at Medcare Orthopaedics & Spine hospital following the first implementation of TrakCare at Medcare Hospital Sharjah earlier this summer. It will help us further bolster patient care, improve patient safety and reduce the overall waiting time for the patient,” said Dr Shanila Laiju, Group chief executive officer at Medcare hospitals and medical centres.
