University Maternity Hospital Limerick Improves Care with Oracle Health
Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) announced that University Maternity Hospital Limerick (UMHL) has implemented the HSE's Maternal & Newborn Clinical Management System (MN-CMS), powered by Oracle Health. The electronic health record system replaces paper-based processes, providing instant access to patient information across facilities.
The implementation has shown significant results, with neonatology nurses saving 76 minutes per shift previously spent on administrative tasks. The system now supports more than 50% of Ireland's births and connects multiple facilities, including the Nenagh Ambulatory Gynaecology Unit. As part of HSE's Digital for Care 2030 strategy, all 19 maternity hospitals in Ireland are expected to implement the system within five years.

Insights
Oracle's healthcare technology expands in Ireland, demonstrating measurable workflow improvements and growing recurring revenue from government healthcare contracts.
Oracle Health's expansion of its Maternal & Newborn Clinical Management System (MN-CMS) to University Maternity Hospital Limerick (UMHL) marks a significant milestone in the company's healthcare strategy. This implementation represents more than just a new client - it now means Oracle's platform supports over 50% of all births in Ireland, creating a substantial healthcare data ecosystem.
The quantifiable efficiency gains are particularly noteworthy: the system is saving neonatology nurses an average of 76 minutes per shift by reducing administrative tasks. This represents substantial workflow optimization that healthcare administrators and procurement officers closely monitor when evaluating technology investments.
The planned expansion to all 19 maternity hospitals in Ireland over the next five years under HSE's Digital for Care 2030 strategy signals predictable recurring revenue for Oracle in this vertical. This demonstrates Oracle's success in securing long-term government healthcare contracts, which typically offer stable, high-margin returns.
The press release highlights the transition from paper-based processes to digital health records, addressing a critical pain point in maternal healthcare where information continuity is essential. By connecting facilities and enabling data sharing across a network of hospitals, Oracle is creating significant switching costs that will likely secure this revenue stream for years beyond the initial contract.
This implementation aligns with the broader healthcare industry shift toward interoperable systems and data-driven insights, positioning Oracle well in the competitive healthcare IT landscape against rivals like Epic, Cerner (now Oracle-owned), and Allscripts.

UMHL and Nenagh join the existing MN-CMS facilities already using the EHR. With the ability to share data and insights from more than half of the births in
"Teaming with Oracle Health to create and implement the Maternal & Newborn Clinical Management System is an important milestone in Irish healthcare. Together, we are putting maternity services back into the community and improving the efficiency of our clinical processes to enhance the care and safety of our patients," said Dr. Michael Robson, national clinical director, MN-CMS. "Being a part of the MN-CMS will allow UMHL to connect with other facilities and ensure women and babies get the right care at the right time no matter where they are."
The Nenagh Ambulatory Gynaecology Unit is a state-of-the-art facility for gynaecology, menopause, and fertility services, and UHML is a teaching hospital specializing in obstetrics. Together, they emphasize a collaborative approach to healthcare delivery, fostering a supportive environment for both patients and learners. With the Oracle Health-powered MN-CMS EHR, they are automatically connected with the hospitals and clinics already live on the system so that expectant mothers' complete health records are accessible, regardless of where they receive care in the region. Additionally, the new system helps UMHL staff to accurately code diagnoses and procedures, receive near real-time notifications if the patient has an increased risk of certain conditions, and convert raw data into actionable insights by identifying patterns and trends that can elevate care delivery and help improve outcomes.
"There are few more exciting or scary moments than giving birth," said Seema Verma, executive vice president and general manager, Oracle Health and Life Sciences. "No expectant mother should have to remember to bring her medical records with her to the hospital in that moment – it isn't feasible or safe. By working with HSE to build and deliver a universal electronic health records system that is accessible and connected for care teams from any facility we are helping Irish hospitals like UMHL to reduce administrative overhead, empowering clinicians with the right information, and improving safety and quality of care for women and infants."
Sites using the MN-CMS EHR system are giving an average of 76 minutes back to each neonatology nurse per shift, which they can now spend on direct patient care instead of manual documentation. As part of the HSE Digital for Care 2030 strategy, all of
