Cerner’s use of Oracle’s Database Technology

Cerner Millennium applications use an Oracle database and provide a common data model to enable data sharing between applications and to eliminate redundant data, while maximizing reliability and performance. This implementation runs on a variety of networks, processors and operating systems, including Windows XP Professional and any Internet browser. http://cerner.com/public/Cerner_2.asp?id=27196

All Millennium installs take advantage of the full Oracle database stack (9iEE, RAC, and the Management Packs). Oracle’s Real Application Clustering (RAC) enables both reliability and scalability by allowing the addition of servers to the host cluster. Cerner also uses Oracle’s Tuning Pack, Diagnostic Pack, and Change Management Pack to help protect the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of its Millennium healthcare data. Oracle’s EAL 4 (Evaluation Assurance Level 4) rating also attests to its robust security. [[1]] MikeField 08:49, 17 January 2010 (CST)

Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT) performs rigorous inspection of EHR's integrated functionality,interoperability, security and is intended to serve health care providers looking for maximum assurance that a product will meet their complex needs. These listed products have CCHIT Certification but have not been tested against the applicable proposed Federal standards in existence on the date of certification for certified EHR technology of its type under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA): 1) Cerner Millennium FirstNet 2007.19 (Expires April 22, 2011), 2) Cerner Millennium PowerChart 2007 (Expires January 22, 2011), 3) Cerner Millennium FirstNet 2007.19 (Expires April 22, 2011), and 4) Cerner Millennium PowerChart/PowerWorks EMR 2007.19 (Expires April 22, 2011). 4 [[2]] EarnValle, September 6, 2010, 9:15pm CST
