Greetings, GE Centricity is a windows app - I've worked with it before. It's for the most part pretty "vanilla".
I believe the suggestion below is the right one, do "something" in GE that extracts the information - I do not have any knowledge about GE's abilities here. Once extracted, you'll need to make sure it "matches up" with the Meditech screens. Meaning the data extracted can be keyed into Meditech successfully. A script can make data format changes (date, time) those sorts of things - or you can use Excel to format it ahead of time. Data entry into Meditech from a spreadsheet (or any other file format) should not be difficult at all - and perhaps folks on the list have dictionary update scripts already for what you're looking for.
