Selects Medicity EHR
Service provider Schryver Medical
of Denver selected Medicity
ProAccess EHR to help make ordering easier and clinical
results more accessible to physicians.
Salt Lake
City, UT, June 20, 2006—Medicity, Inc.,
today announced that Schryver Medical has selected
Medicity’s ProAccess Electronic Health Record
(EHR) software to allow clinicians in its five-state
market area to access aggregated patient information
from a true longitudinal patient record. It will also
allow them to order imaging and laboratory tests through
a Schryver-branded physician web portal. Schryver
sells ancillary medical services and supplies to long-term
care facilities in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona,
and Washington. The ProAccess EHR will give the firm
a service-oriented, data-exchange infrastructure with
a variety of options for publishing patient information
to physician practices and partner organizations,
including the ability to integrate with EMRs, send
to fax machines, and automatically print new results.
“Thousands
of physicians depend upon our services to provide
quality care for their patients,” explains Jeff
McBride, Schryver President. “Our decision to
extend electronic ordering capability and access to
clinical data to the field is an effort to improve
our service to physicians and our ability to communicate
with them. This decision supports our dynamic growth
and our desire to continue our service to hundreds
of nursing homes, and assisted living communities,
as well as the physicians that take care of the elderly
in these settings. Schryver recognizes that Medicity
will bring them an essential value-added service that
will allow them to expand across the country in what
can be described as one of the fastest growing segments
of healthcare.”
“Schryver
is a great example of the variety of organizations
that can benefit from an EHR,” notes Kipp Lassetter,
Medicity Chairman and CEO. “Not only will ProAccess
allow the company to give physicians access to online
ordering and real-time results, it will also improve
physician service quality, increase physician convenience,
improve communication, and reduce the overall cost
of customer support. This generates a significant
ROI.”
“Medicity was
very flexible in dealing with our requirements. In
addition to tailoring the solutions, they designed
a pricing model that met our needs,” says McBride.
“They will also host the solution and provide
continuing technical support to our IT group,”
he adds.
Schryver’s
new EHR will initially include two bi-directional
systems interfaces, acquiring data from its laboratory
and radiology systems and sending order information
back to those systems seamlessly.
