eClinicalWorks And Utah Medical Association Team Up To Deliver
Electronic Health Records
Alliance Helps Bring Integrated EMR and Practice
Management Solution to Member Physicians State-wide
WESTBOROUGH, Mass. - March 26, 2007 - eClinicalWorks, a market
leader in unified EMR/PM systems, and the Utah Medical Association (UMA)
today announced an agreement to help physicians implement electronic
medical records (EMR) in their practices. This is UMAs first formal
relationship with an EMR vendor.
As part of the agreement, UMA member physicians can streamline their
front to back-office operations through eClinicalWorks’ unified EMR and
practice management (PM) solution, and can choose between the
application service provider (ASP) or the client/server model. Access to
the eClinicalWorks’ Web-based Patient Portal will also be offered.
“The Utah Medical Association is committed to offering our members
access to the best tools to help them care for their patients,” said Dr.
C. Kerry Stratford, president of Utah Medical Association. “Electronic
medical records can benefit all of our members, whether they care for
patients in large or small practices. Having used eClinicalWorks in my
own practice, I know that many of our members will benefit from this
comprehensive EMR and practice management solution.”
By working with eClinicalWorks, UMA members will be able to streamline
internal processes, including scheduling appointments, creating
electronic medical records, and billing. This allows healthcare
providers to spend more time with patients and less on administrative
duties, in addition to increasing the quality of patient data. The
accompanying Patient Portal feature allows patients and physicians to
communicate easily, safely, and securely over the Internet for routine
information such as appointments, lab results, and statements.
“We are devoted to delivering an EMR and PM solution that is versatile
enough to meet the individual needs of physician practices of any size,”
said Girish Kumar Navani, president of eClinicalWorks. “The Utah Medical
Association’s commitment to this technology is a testament to the value
of implementing electronic medical record systems, especially as
pay-for-performance measures become more commonplace. We look forward to
working with UMA to equip its members with technology that will advance
the quality of care delivered to their patients.”
eClinicalWorks’ award-winning EMR solution provides the ability to
manage patient flow, access patient records in-house or remotely,
communicate electronically with referring physicians, and send secure
consult notes and clinical data. Users can easily access and review
complete patient histories, including past visits, current medications,
allergies, labs and charts. Integrated with the EMR is eClinicalWorks
Practice Management system, designed to streamline the medical billing
process.
