Electronic Health Record (EHR or EMR) systems are increasingly being implemented in medical offices, hospitals, clinics, and care facilities. The benefits are significant;including but not limited to rebates from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Improved Reimbursement, improved patient care.In addition, EHR helps medical providers comply with HIPAA regulations, specifically addressing the issues of record security and accessability.
Despite the benefits of using an EHR, the number of medical facilities using EHR in the United States remains low, with the cost of conversion being the number one reason cited for delaying the change. Wolfson Consulting assists with every step of the conversion process, from tips on how to select the best EHR system to implementing the system in the office.
