Free Emr Saves Orthopedic Surgeons
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) May 09, 2012
Orthopedic hand surgeon Andrew Bronstein, MD, decided to invest in a legacy Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system to improve efficiency in his Las Vegas practice. After spending over $ 60,000 in hardware and software, the installation team never showed up. Bronstein soon discovered the EMR company was bankrupt and his health IT investment was gone. That?s when, in April 2010, Dr. Bronstein turned to Practice Fusion, a free, web-based EMR.
?Since it is free, I could try it out in the privacy of my home before I saw any patients. I was hooked within five minutes and within one week, our staff was up and running,? said Bronstein.
Dr. Bronstein is featured in a new video case study as one of the over 150,000 medical professionals already using Practice Fusion?s comprehensive EMR, which includes medical charting, scheduling, e-prescribing, lab integrations and more, all at no cost. Dr. Bronstein?s practice has since been able to go completely paperless, allowing him to manage patient records and quickly deliver patient care.
Practice Fusion?s free EMR is designed around an ad-supported business model unique in the health tech sector, where competitors charge upwards of $ 40,000 for software alone. Because the EMR is cloud-based, upgrades to the product are rapidly deployed and always free.
?It?s an absolutely invaluable software product, from how easy it is to implement to how robust it is compared to EMRs that cost tens of thousands of dollars,? said Dr. Bronstein. ?There is no catch, it is just a wonderful system.?
Practice Fusion is also ONC-ATCB certified, allowing physicians to earn up to $ 44,000 in federal stimulus incentives for adopting and using the EMR system.
?Practice Fusion is basically tearing down the barriers for physicians, freeing up the doctor and the hospital to communicate at no additional cost,? said Dr. Bronstein. ?They are really doing a service to doctors and healthcare as a whole with a more secure, better health record system for our country.?
