The Finnish wellbeing services counties of North Karelia and South Savo selected Lifecare EHR to advance social and healthcare services

The wellbeing services county of North Karelia becomes a new customer of Tietoevry Care to implement Lifecare EHR system. It covers systems for specialized medical care, primary healthcare, social services, oral health services, as well as mobile documentation and operational management for home care. 

The South Savo wellbeing services county has made a procurement decision regarding Lifecare EHR Social Care. The county has previously used Lifecare EHR Healthcare system.  

Lifecare EHR promotes collaboration and ensures safe care while freeing up time for interaction with clients and patients.  

“Lifecare EHR is specifically designed to support the work of professionals in social and healthcare, and we look forward to future collaboration with the wellbeing services counties of North Karelia and South Savo. The system is developed together with professionals in social and healthcare, allowing participants from the counties to influence the content of the solutions and services being developed. Thanks to the system, our customers can focus on care work, build more timely and equitable care pathways, and thereby enable better care for the residents of these counties,” says Tietoevry Care’s Managing Director Ari Järvelä. 

“We are delighted to implement a unified system that meets both our social and healthcare needs, allowing us to move away from numerous separate systems. This will ease the workload for our professionals and reduce costs for our wellbeing services county,” says ICT CDO Maija Valta from the county of North Karelia. 

CDO Jukka Mielonen from the wellbeing services county of South Savo adds: “South Savo will finally have a unified client and patient information system. The new system Lifecare EHR will optimize everyday operations in social and healthcare and improve data-driven management” 

North Karelia county serves around 163,400 residents, and South Savo about 130,000 residents in Finland. 

The deployment of Lifecare EHR will take place in close collaboration with the customers during 2025-2027. 

Lifecare EHR is already in use in 16 wellbeing services counties, covering over 3 million Finnish citizens.
