Easy-to-Use, Comprehensive Hospital Clinicals

Paragon is so intuitive, it gets broad acceptance and use by the entire care team. Paragon Clinicals is a 2011 KLAS category leader in the Acute Care EMR (Community) market segment.*

With Paragon, all patient data - lab, radiology, transcription, care planning, nursing and ancillary documentation - is available in one system. This eliminates the need to search for patient data in multiple places and systems and helps clinicians focus on providing the best patient care.
