Tarrytown (NY)—Sept 5, 2005---
OmniMD, a leading developer of HIPAA-compliant healthcare
solutions, has announced the availability of MEDCIN®
clinical engine in its Specialty Electronic Medical
Records (EMR) product. MEDCIN® includes more than
270,000 clinical data elements covering symptoms, history,
physical examination, tests, diagnoses and therapy.
MEDCIN has evolved over 26 years, in collaboration with
physicians on staff from Cornell, Harvard, Johns Hopkins
and other medical centers.
Driven by MEDCIN®, OmniMD’s Specialty EMR
offers a core tool allowing healthcare providers to
create and maintain electronic documentation of each
patient encounter. Physicians can record patient data
using an easy and intuitive point-and-click system to
create a well-structured and comprehensive medical record.
Users also have the flexibility to incorporate their
own custom data sets and templates into the point-and-click
system.
This point-and-click EMR system reduces
documentation time by over 60%. Patient encounter documentation
at the point of care eliminates delays due to cumbersome
manual documentation and medical errors due to illegible
notes. A single-click search allows instant retrieval
of electronic patient charts, encounter notes, patient
vitals, history, review of systems, procedure notes
and medical assessments and plans.
Easy data capture and reporting helps
the physician make informed medical decisions and creates
data that can be used to generate clinically useful
reports, for example: health maintenance reminders and
disease management.
“Working in a high-pressure environment,
it is often possible to overlook minute details in patient
documentation. MEDCIN’s extensive clinical knowledge
engine augments the capability of our EMR to capture
and record even the most subtle medical details in the
patient chart at the point of care itself. A point-and-click
system ensures documentation of the highest standard,
supporting the physician in medical decision-making
and better coding.” says Mr. Divan Da’ve,
CEO of OmniMD.
OmniMD EMR covers specialty specific and
custom point-and-click templates for numerous specialties
including Cardiology, Dermatology, Endocrinology, Gastroenterology,
Family Practice, Internal Medicine, Neurology and OB/GYN,
to name a few. In addition to MEDICIN®, OmniMD has
also added Online Insurance Eligibility, Patient Reminder,
and Integrated Medical Billing in its new release.
