OMAHA — EPOWERdoc’s EMRdoc has received the federal government’s “meaningful use” stamp of approval by earning Modular Certification. The designation officially deems the electronic health record (EHR) software capable of enabling providers to qualify for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Tested and certified under the Drummond Group’s Electronic Health Records Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ONC-ATCB) program, the EHR software is 2011/2012 compliant in accordance with the criteria adopted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services. EMRdoc is a complete Emergency Department Information System.
Drummond Group’s ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification program tests and certifies that EHRs meet the meaningful use criteria for either eligible provider or hospital technology. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology — a key component of the federal government’s push to improve clinical care delivery through the adoption and effective use of EHRs by U.S. healthcare providers.
EMRdoc, which met the requirements for Modular Certification, is a full Emergency Department Information System with risk-fortified clinical content and essential modules that maximize speed and patient flow in the Emergency Department. The unique electronic charting system incorporates the data entry format that was pioneered in our widely accepted paper template systems. Our electronic medical record that permits extraordinarily fast charting and ease of use. EPOWERdoc’s electronic chart design and data entry format allow the user, with the touch of a pen, to document their findings. Handwriting and voice recognition and keyboard entry capacities enhance the already simple data input process.
