Dedalus records the highest number of contracted hospital beds for the fourth consecutive year, according to KLAS Research

Milan (Italy), 22 July 2026 – According to the newly published Global Hospital EHR Market Share 2026 report by KLAS Research, which analyzes EHR purchasing activity during 2025, Dedalus recorded the highest number of contracted hospital beds for the fourth consecutive year. In a year marked by slower global EHR purchasing activity, Dedalus continues to earn the trust of healthcare organizations undertaking large-scale digital transformation and modernization programmes across Europe and selected international markets. Nine healthcare organizations across Germany, France, Spain and Peru selected Dedalus solutions, making Dedalus the most selected multiregional EHR vendor by number of new contract decisions in 2025. 

With 9,982 contracted beds in 2025, many associated with large public healthcare organizations, Dedalus continues to be a trusted partner for healthcare systems undertaking complex digital transformation programmes that require scale, long-term commitment and the ability to support large and complex healthcare environments. Europe remained the company’s strongest market, with performance driven by a combination of net-new customer decisions and modernization initiatives among existing customers, including the continued adoption of Dedalus ORBIS/Care4U in France, new Dedalus ORBIS and ORBIS U deployments in Germany, and Dedalus Care in Spain. 

According to KLAS’s Global Hospital EHR Market Share 2026 report, Dedalus now serves 1,637 inpatient hospitals across Europe, Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Oceania. This positions Dedalus as the third-largest EHR vendor worldwide by total inpatient hospital presence, underscoring the company’s extensive international footprint and strong leadership position across Europe. 

“Maintaining our leadership in contracted hospital beds for the fourth consecutive year is a powerful validation of our strategy and our long-term commitment to healthcare providers,” said Alberto Calcagno, CEO of Dedalus Group. “Even in a more challenging market environment, healthcare organizations continue to place their trust in Dedalus to support their digital transformation journeys. Our strong momentum in France, Germany and Spain, and the confidence of both new and existing customers demonstrate the value of our solutions and the dedication of our teams. We are deeply grateful to our customers and partners for their continued trust and collaboration as we work together to transform healthcare. We remain focused on helping healthcare organizations deliver connected, efficient, and human-centred care through innovative, future-ready digital platforms.” 

The company continues to strengthen its position in the DACH region, where four organizations selected Dedalus ORBIS and ORBIS U in Germany. These include hospitals replacing competitive systems as well as healthcare groups extending the platform to newly acquired facilities.  

In France, three public healthcare entities selected Dedalus solutions during the year, including organizations that chose ORBIS/Care4U as part of their modernization strategies. In addition, AP-HP, one of the largest healthcare organizations in the world, confirmed its intention to move forward with ORBIS/Care4U as part of its long-term digital transformation roadmap. In Southern Europe, a healthcare region in Spain selected Dedalus Care for its three hospitals, while in Peru a hospital chose Dedalus solutions, further expanding the company’s presence in strategically important markets. 

The KLAS report also reflects ongoing portfolio and platform evolution across the business, indicating that Dedalus completed the divestment of its Enterprise Management portfolio in the Middle East and Asia during 2025 as part of its strategic focus on Europe and Latin America, while continuing to support clients in their digital transformation and modernization initiatives. 

As healthcare systems continue to evolve, Dedalus remains committed to empowering healthcare professionals and organizations with secure, interoperable and scalable digital health solutions that improve care delivery and support better health outcomes for people worldwide.
