Electronic Health Records
The big buzzword in electronic health records this year is "integrated workflow." Vendors are showcasing systems that focus on streamlining everything from image access to billing. Another focus is the ongoing national efforts toward interconnectivity through regional health information organizations (RHIOs) and integrating the Healthcare Enterprise standards.
eClinicalWorks is previewing version 7.0 of its integrated EMR and practice management solution which includes two integrated components: eClinicalWorks EMR (electronic medical record) and eClinicalWorks PM (Practice Management). The EMR solution manages patient flow from check-in to check-out while the PM solution is designed to instantly streamline the medical billing process. Both are ideal for small, medium and large multi-specialty and multi-location practice networks. eClinicalWorks also can aid front offices with appointment scheduling management and increase communication between practices and patients through its patient portal.
