“Our ability to do lung cancer screening is aided by the systems that we’ve set up, the questionnaires, the templates, the Order Forms. We then track and follow these patients carefully over time, because they have to have annual scans.”
Dr. Michael Myers, Chief Medical Officer, Compass Medical

Problem

For more than 20 years, Compass Medical has delivered comprehensive, compassionate care in Southeastern Massachusetts. As the practice grew to serve 80,000 patients, they recognized they needed an EHR capable of helping them manage growth.

Solution

In 2015, Compass Medical switched to eClinicalWorks, gaining tools to optimize workflows and reduce risks of provider burnout, as well as data analytics to address Population Health challenges they face as an Accountable Care Organization.

Results

Following Go-Live in March 2015, Compass Medical trained all employees on eClinicalWorks. With the help of the eClinicalWorks EHR, they screened 2,000+ patients at risk for lung cancer, detecting and treating cancer in 19 patients.
