Ascension Wisconsin has successfully restored Electronic Health Record access, significantly improving electronic patient documentation in care settings. This will allow most hospital departments, physician offices and clinics to use electronic documentation, charting, and ordering systems. Patients should see improved efficiencies and wait times. Our team continues to work tirelessly to restore other ancillary technology systems.

All Ascension Wisconsin hospitals, physician offices, and care sites across the state remain open and operational. We thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate this situation. Rest assured, our commitment to the health and safety of our community remains our highest priority.
