eCLINICALWORKS ANNOUNCES VERSION 8.0 AND
ENTERPRISE BUSINESS OPTIMIZER
Company Announces Latest Version of its Award-winning Unified Electronic Medical Records and Practice Management System; New Enterprise Solution
ORLANDO, Fla., HIMSS Conference, BOOTH #3485—February 25,
2008—
eClinicalWorksTM, a market leader in ambulatory clinical
systems, today announced eClinicalWorks 8.0, the latest version of its
unified electronic medical record (EMR) and practice management (PM)
software. As part of this announcement, the company is also launching a
complimentary solution, titled Enterprise Business Optimizer (eBO),
using meta-data to create custom reports. eBO and Version 8.0 will be
available beginning in April 2008.
The new clinical and monetary
business optimization features that are included in eBO, including
Cognos 8 Business Intelligence, will allow for more dynamic reporting
and analysis with drill-down and custom report writing based on
meta-data. This solution will enable customers to create their own
customized reports and perform clinical and financial analysis, giving
more flexibility to the practice.
"MAeHC was formed to help improve healthcare quality, safety and
affordability through technology," said Micky Tripathi, chief executive
of Massachusetts eHealth Collaborative (MAeHC). "A large portion of this
project has been dedicated to electronic health records, with
eClinicalWorks being the vendor of choice for the vast majority of the
providers involved. The system offered by eClinicalWorks has always been
top-rated, but this new version elevates the role of electronic health
records systems from managing healthcare to improving the care provided.
In my opinion, the measurement, decision support and reporting functions
of eClinicalWorks’ new version will raise the bar for the entire
industry."
eClinicalWorks has collected product feedback from
customers nationwide, which created the groundwork for the latest
version. A sample of enhancements found in eClinicalWorks EMR/PM 8.0
includes:
- Clinical Decision Support System for developing clinical
measures as well as new ways for improving chronic and preventative
care;
- Structured data for reporting and researching patient
information;
- Apply treatment protocols using pre-defined order sets;
- Claims work lists and follow-up management;
- Automated claims and statement processing;
- Rejection-based workflow manager; and
- Enterprise task manager.
eClinicalWorks Electronic Health eXchange (eEHX) new electronic
referrals and care management capabilities aid in creating a holistic
view of a patient’s ambulatory record for community-wide projects. The
company’s Patient Portal now offers enhanced patient communication via
text message (SMS) in addition to the always available e-mail and has
received enhancements to the ways patient history can be collected.
“eClinicalWorks has always worked closely with its customers to enrich
our products in ways that most directly benefit them and how they care
for their patients,” said Girish Kumar Navani, president of
eClinicalWorks. “It is the input that we receive from people using our
products daily in their practice that has the most direct impact in the
direction our solutions take. This has resulted in eClinicalWorks
building a next-generation EMR/PM system in addition to the creation of
complimentary products, including the Enterprise Business Optimizer and
last year’s release of our Electronic Health eXchange.”
