Ongoing KLAS research shows that EHR projects—including purchase decisions, implementations, extensions, and optimization work—continue to be a high priority for healthcare organizations across the world, second only to AI initiatives. In 2024, the number of new EHR contracts reached a five-year high. However, the number of hospitals impacted by these contracts dropped to a five-year low, as many of the decisions were made by standalone hospitals or small hospital groups. Additionally, fewer large-scale regional decisions were made in 2024 compared to years prior; KLAS validated regional decisions in Austria, Canada, France, Mauritius, Saudi Arabia, and the UK. Overall, KLAS validated 246 EHR decisions impacting 550 hospitals and over 122,000 beds. 39 different EHR vendors in 43 different countries and territories were selected.
