$995 EHR Includes ePrescribing, Health Maintenance, and Evidence Based Practice; Earns Top Ranking for Usability and User Satisfaction in Multiple Surveys
Newswise — AmazingCharts.com, Inc., a leading developer of Electronic Health Record (EHR/EMR) systems, today announced the general availability of Amazing Charts V5, a CCHIT Certified® 2008 Ambulatory EHR additionally certified for Child Health. Amazing Charts V5 includes a host of new features and functionality, including robust ePrescribing, designed to work the way physicians do, resulting in enhanced productivity and patient care. Amazing Charts V5 can be downloaded and used free for three months at http://www.amazingcharts.com
"Doctors tell us they want ePrescribing that works simply and easily, not the hard-to-use solutions many EHR vendors are selling," said Jonathan Bertman, MD, founder and CEO of Amazing Charts. "We don't think it is fair that physicians should have to pay to write scripts, so we include our full ePrescribing and interaction checking as part of our affordable $500 per year maintenance and support service."
Amazing Charts V5 integration with 5-Minute Clinical Consult (5MCC) brings evidence-based practice tools directly to the point of care at no additional cost. 5MCC provides concise, practical, evidence-based recommendations on more than 700 medical conditions, and deep integration into Amazing Charts means one click from within a patient chart pulls up the relevant diagnoses to allow physicians to rapidly review current diagnostic and management recommendations.
A robust health maintenance component based on USPSTF and CDC guidelines is also included in Amazing Charts V5 at no additional cost. Physicians and other users have direct access to health maintenance clinical guidelines for providing preventative services at recommended intervals. Functionality includes automatic reminders and the ability to find all patients overdue for health maintenance care.
Amazing Charts V5 includes other features required to be a certified ambulatory EHR solution, including Order and Referral Tracking, enhanced Search and Reporting, and even a Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) and Pay For Performance (P4P) Wizard.
"Like most of my colleagues, I am deeply frustrated with the EHR industry," said Dr. Bertman. "As physicians, we feel like we are being forced by the government and insurers to adopt EHR technology, yet most of the solutions are clearly not designed to work in a busy practice, require a tremendous number of steps to document even a simple patient encounter, and to add insult to injury, are priced at an unconscionable level. My own frustration led me to start Amazing Charts with the simple goal of providing a solution that is truly usable, affordable, and constantly enhanced based on what our users tell us they need to make their lives better."
