September 11, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
San Diego, CA., September 11, 2006 — EMR Experts, Inc., a leading provider of electronic health record (EHR) and medical billing software solutions, is excited to announce a new partnership with Medical Communication Systems, Inc. architects of the CCHIT certified mMD.Net Electronic Health Record.

As electronic health record technology matures, third parties such as labs, pharmacies, payers and imaging centers are improving their compliance. In turn, the benefit of feature rich systems for the small to mid-size practice is more prevalent. This increase in compliance enables physicians to send prescriptions to pharmacies electronically, receive lab results, bill electronically to payers and receive images such as MRIs and X-Rays directly from the imaging centers. By computerizing these processes, physician offices save a significant amount of time and money in addition to providing a higher level of patient care. Medical Communication Systems, Inc. with their strong focus on R&D offers all these valuable features. "We are excited to work with Medical Communications Systems and have chosen them to be one of our premier partners due to their robust product line, dedication to support and highly customizable product" says John Deutsch, Director of Marketing.

As public awareness about EMR increases the use of patient portals/internet accessible medical record will become common place. mMD.Net offers patients direct access to their medical record with their mMD.Net Enterprise Patient Portal. While patient adoption of patient portals is still in its infancy the benefits of this feature can be easily realized and will increase over the coming years.
