When Dr. Lori Kemper and her partners determined that electronic medical records were a good option in 1997 when they first began putting their practice together.They visited multiple trade shows and conducted extensive research but found that many options were not intuitive, an aspect that was crucial to their practice, as they do resident training and need to get people up to speed quickly and efficiently.
Additionally, she found that many EMR programs force users to conform to their way of doing things.Dr. Kemper appreciated the fact that MedicWare provided a flexible set up that could be personalized to their needs while being intuitive and easy to learn.The No. 1 benefit to MedicWare is that our patient records are always there, always neat and can be used and instantly found by multiple people at one time, says Dr. Kemper.
No More Messy Handwriting We do a lot of resident training, says Dr. Kemper.That means we have a lot of bad handwriting come through.The residents work here for a few years and then leave, and were stuck with trying to read their bad handwriting when revisiting patient records.With MedicWare, there are no such problems EMR eliminates the need to decipher handwriting by providing clean, typewritten records for every patient.
Legibility is crucial to us, and the quality of the note dictates the billing level we can record, says Dr. Kemper.This is key to our business because we can justify our billing rate and get the true return on the service we provide our patients.
Long-Term Commitment While searching for an EMR source in the late-nineties, Dr. Kemper noticed a lot of companies that had been around for 12 months or less.MedicWare was the one of the few companies that had been around for more than a year they had been working on their product for five years, and that made me feel like they would be around for years to come to support the product I bought from them, said Dr. Kemper.I also felt they would have worked out many of the kinks and problems the newer companies might not even know about yet.
Now, almost seven years later, Dr. Kemper has found that MedicWare, aside from still being around, has kept up with the latest developments in the world of EMR, and the upgrades provided have made it unnecessary to change to another product.
