Why Hospitals Should Use Electronic Medical Records

OptimustEMR® takes the use of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) to the next level. Are you satisfied with the accuracy of your organizations clinical documentation for all departments? Even if the documentation is there and aced in every way, can all mission critical members of the staff access and view it when needed? Not every member of the medical profession is as magically free from error as a Doctor Kildare or a Marcus Welby. Even doctors are human and can make mistakes.

With state of the art Medical Decision Support (MDS) fully integrated into its Long Term Care (LTC) software, your medical staff will have all of the modern tools that they require at their command 24/7. By automating much of the manual portion of the (LTC) workflow process, needless and sometimes even dangerous duplication of tasks is thus prevented. Supervisors can more easily monitor staff performance and patient care by customizing electronic reporting procedures. Each patient can then receive the clinical decision support that they need for their individual care.

Hospitals that do not use electronic medical reporting, or whose EMR is in need of updating, can be in danger of misdiagnosing certain cases. Without the benefit provided by having all of the latest Point of Care data, the chances of members of the staff making erroneous decisions can thus be increased. With budget cuts a reality for many involved in the medical profession, the litigious nature of society and also the sometimes limited availability of other learned staff members with which to confer, the automated MDS module, with its built-in intelligence, can provide reassuring guidance for the many difficult questions faced daily by those involved with patient care.

OptimusEMR® enables the seamless integration of all departments and disciplines within the organizational chain for optimum operational efficiency. Its structured notes and clinical pathways reduce or eliminate the misinterpretation of handwriting that can happen with hand written notes. This improved reporting, which features personal electronic signatures, complete with date and time stamps, empowers administration and management to anticipate any problems that may occur and to take corrective measures before they happen.

OptimusEMR® can assist even those rare hospitals and other medical institutions with perfect clinical activities by allowing them to be rewarded for their efforts by enhancing their reimbursement rates for Medicare and Medicaid. Fully updated Resource Utilization Groupings (RUG) rates provide billing with up to the moment clinical records and Point of Care information. By the use of automatic communication with billing, this groundbreaking software increases the accuracy of medical reporting by reducing manual data entry.
