WebMD Practice Services Launches Intergy EHR
Designed with intuitive workflow to help physicians work more efficiently and
access medical information at point of care
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- WebMD Practice Services, a
leading provider of administrative, financial and clinical software and
services to the nation's medical practices, today announced the launch of
Intergy EHR (Electronic Health Record) at the Medical Group Management
Association (MGMA) annual conference. Intergy EHR is a suite of software
modules that provides physicians with access to patient information, clinical
systems, encounter documentation and outcomes reporting -- all from a single
view. Designed with an intuitive navigation and modular approach, physicians
can easily integrate Intergy EHR into their workflow so that they can practice
more efficiently.
"We have put into Intergy EHR the best of everything we've learned from clients
using our existing clinical applications and from the past 20 years we've spent
leading the practice management industry," said Tom Stampiglia, WebMD Practice
Services President & Chief Operating Officer. "We've listened to feedback from
our physician customers, and have designed Intergy EHR so it fits the way a
physician works, thinks and moves to deliver patient care."
Intergy EHR fully integrates with Intergy Practice, a comprehensive practice
management system that enables physicians to simplify and improve a practice's
administrative and financial processes. Together, Intergy Practice and Intergy
EHR give physicians a seamless, intuitive system that can enhance practice
operations, patient care, and patient satisfaction. Intergy EHR also provides
an integrated, single vendor solution for The Medical Manager and PCN, and
interoperates with practice management systems supplied by other companies. In
addition, Intergy EHR offers:
* A modular design that enables physicians to purchase and install the
system incrementally or all at once, depending on their preference.
Intergy EHR also is designed to enable different physicians in the same
practice to use the system in different ways, to suit different work
styles. For example, encounter notes can become part of the electronic
record whether created by computer, dictation or handwritten notes.
* PhysicianFlow(SM) technology that enables physicians to access
information from a variety of sources - including the patient chart,
imaging systems, practice management systems, and laboratory systems -
all from one screen. Physicians also can easily move among tasks and
multiple open patient charts. Placeholders in the system return users
to the point they were last viewing in each open chart.
* ImageDirector(SM) technology that combines bar-coding technology with
imaging processes to simplify moving from paper to digital charts, and
to make it easier to incorporate into the electronic chart paper that
comes into the practice, such as lab reports, hospital discharges,
referrals, and patient insurance cards. Because bar codes can be
assigned to paper documents using any printer, the practice does not
need to buy scanners for each workstation. Bar coded documents can be
batch-scanned into patient charts as the staff has time, rather than
having to interrupt workflow to scan documents as they are received.
* Clinical encounter forms guide documentation and capture structured
data to facilitate correct coding and outcomes reporting. Physicians
can review and approve coding as they create the encounter note so that
billed procedures are appropriately documented. The Intergy EHR
provides a forms library for major medical specialties, including
primary care, pediatrics, obstetrics/gynecology, cardiology,
orthopedics and others.
* KnowledgeLink technology to enable physicians to access information
from Medscape, the leading source of online information and educational
services for physicians, and other drug and medical reference
information, while they are using the Encounter Note. This enables the
physician to share education with the patient at the time of care, and
documents the event in the encounter note.
* A selection of various input devices for physicians, including desktop,
laptop and tablet PCs, and handheld personal digital assistant (PDA)
devices. Handheld systems can be used for offline charge capture,
schedule review and dictation, and tablet PCs for full mobile
functionality. Physicians also can assign tasks and access clinical
information from Intergy EHR systems connected to the practice over the
Internet or over a wireless network.
* Remote System Monitoring automatically checks for the healthy operation
of the Intergy EHR system. Real-time monitoring detects issues that
have the potential to affect system performance, such as the need to
increase data storage capacity and the need to perform a system back-
up. Remote System Monitoring also tracks transaction flows to confirm
that items such as electronic prescriptions and lab orders are
transmitted and received. Any detected issues are reported to the
practice by WebMD Practice Service's support personnel.
Mr. Stampiglia continued: "As a leader, we have stayed ahead of market demands
by creating leading technologies and offering innovative features. Intergy EHR
will be able to communicate with Personal Health Records utilizing the emerging
Continuity of Care Record (CCR) standards, enabling physician to physician
referral of patient information and patient to physician sharing of health
information."
