e-Prescibing
e-Prescribing allows physicians to
better manage their patients'
medications by presenting all
drug-related information about a
patient electronically, in one
place. An online e-Prescribing
application allows a physician to
quickly and easily prescribe and
refill prescriptions using any
retail or mail-order pharmacy.
With
e-Prescribing, physicians and their
staff can:
-
Write prescriptions that can be
electronically transmitted to
the pharmacy of their choice.
-
Manage refill requests; and
start, modify and stop
medications.
-
Check an extensive brand name
and generic database and create
a customized "quick pick" list.
-
Check a patient's plan sponsor
formulary to know what is and
isn't covered, at the point of
care.
-
Check a patient's medication
profile for drug allergies
before prescribing, and keep
patient medication list and
allergy table up-to-date.
Electronic Medical Records
An EMR
should allow everyone involved in a
patient's care to easily create,
update and access online patient
records. We suggest you evaluate
these features as potential benefits
when purchasing an EMR:
-
Save time and money
-saves valuable time by
eliminating the need for chart
pulls, faxes and phone calls,
transcription, and scanning.
-
Reduce Stress
- Eliminate the pressure and
inefficiencies caused when
charts or information are
missing. With charts that are
always where you know they will
be, staff can spend their time
helping providers and patients
instead of searching for charts,
and questions and requests for
refills can be handled
immediately.
-
Share information throughout the
community
- Without faxing, chart pulls or
phone calls, you should be able
to automatically send referrals
and consult reports, and record
a HIPAA-compliant record of
exactly what has been sent. Does
the EMR include a permissions
sharing system allowing you to
share patient charts with
on-call doctors or hospital ER
providers?
-
Receive information
automatically and
instantaneously
- Does the EMR work with the
labs, radiology centers and
hospitals in your community to
allow you to receive results and
reports automatically - as soon
as they are available - without
scanning or re-entry?
-
Manage your workflow
- How easily does the EMR fit
into the workflow of your
practice with all the
information you need to manage
your patients - including an
inbox containing new lab
results, radiology reports,
prescriptions to review, your
daily patient encounters, and
other messages and reminders -
displayed on one screen, making
it easy to manage your daily
process? Is there a Dashboard
displaying only the information
each employee needs, and
contains a community rolodex and
links to online resources?
-
Improve patient care
- Does the system provide tools
for analysis, including lab
trending over time, custom flow
sheets, medication histories
with allergies, refills and new
medications, chart summaries
with customizable views and
alerts and reminders?
-
Intuitive and easy to use
- With wireless touch screen
tablets, information is
available when and where you
need it so that you can sit
face-to-face with patients and
visually share chart information
with them. Does the EMR allow
you to enter information into a
medical record via the method
that works best for you: voice
recognition, templates,
handwriting recognition, or
typing?
-
Online technology
- Is the EMR accessed via
web-based technology, so there
are no servers to buy, configure
and maintain, and no software to
install and update? The days of
purchasing a box for your office
are over. Your vendor should
provide the necessary servers,
security, maintenance, backups,
redundant services, fax server
operation and automatic
application updates, and allow
easy access from any Internet
connection. Is the technology
affordable? Is a large capital
investment required? Can you
purchase the technology on a
subscription basis?
-
Anytime, anywhere access
- Can you login from anywhere -
your clinic, the hospital, your
home, or while on vacation?
Return on
Investment
- Will you see a return on your
investment in weeks or months
rather than
years? Does the software provide
for a modular approach, allowing
you to add clinical modules at a
comfortable pace?
Physician/Patient Web Portal
Does
your practice have an online
presence? Should you?
According to a new study, from the
Deloitte Center for Health
Solutions, nearly 80 percent of
healthcare consumers are interested
in having e-mail access to a
physician - and 23 percent would be
willing to pay extra for it.
HealthCore MSO can provide your
practice secure, interactive
solutions for improving patient
communications via web-based
interactive applications that allow
physicians to securely engage their
patients online. Some of these tools
