8 Why get an EMR? Improve workflow and productivity Eliminate or reduce paper records & related staff Enable improved, streamlined documentation Improve access to medical records Improve appropriate exchange of medical records Capture services rendered fully Improve billing & collections Reduce errors and improve quality of care Prepare for disease management / pay-for-performance Better meet looming legal/regulatory/payor requirements E-Prescribing Looming payor requirement e-prescribing Feb, CMS issued a proposed rule requiring eprescribing Likely to be implemented within 2 years Many private payors also likely to require this Why Metasolutions, Inc? We remove the most significant barriers to EMR adoption (MRI, 2004 EHR survey) Remove cost barriers Purchase model or monthly subscription model Monthly subscription model has no upfront costs We remove technological barriers Web-based /ASP model Only 12% of current EMRs are based on ASP/website model* 78% are based on expensive client server/main frame equipment that is installed in your office* No need to buy and maintain expensive servers Eliminates the need to hire or contract with IT personnel to maintain your servers Eliminates the need for data back-up and storage Removes security concerns Slashes cost significantly Only 40% of current EMRs integrate EMR with Practice Management functions (scheduling & billing)** Most other EMR systems are: Incomplete as stand alone products Require building an interface to other software to make the system complete. For example, a billing software interfaces with a charting software to make it an EMR This could lead to technical problems with the interface Add significantly to the cost of the EMR because you are having to license two separate systems. Meta EMR & Practice Management is one complete software that accomplishes most practice-related activities: EMR Flexible charting options follows your workflow Order entry E-Prescription (Rx - electronically to pharmacies) Clinical Support tools Medical database Drug-drug interactions Allergies
