Medinformatix EMR
When first opened, the MedInformatix
EMR contains a summary of the patient’s
chart on the right with the workflow listed on
the left. These are both customizable. Many specialty
specific templates are already available and may
be further customized to meet the needs of each
practice. This customization may be done by either
MedInformatix representatives or by the practice
itself. Along the top of the screen, there are
buttons to access other areas of the system, e.g.
past documents, patient billing, orders, prescriptions,
lab results, etc.
Data may be input into the EMR
several ways. Most physicians elect to use a wireless,
hand-held device with touch screen technology.
This makes it fast and easy to select values from
the customizable choice lists. To further increase
the speed of data entry, the physician can use
pre-defined “Normals” or copy the information
from the patient’s last visit.
All completed office notes are stored in the
Document Repository and once they are electronically
signed, each is saved as an encrypted, medically
legal document. The Document Repository also holds
any scanned or incoming faxed documents, hospital,
lab, or radiology reports, electronically signed
consent forms, and digital images. This part of
the system acts as the paper chart and each section
may be created and named by the practice. All
documents stored in the repository may be printed
or faxed at any time.
The prescription module comes loaded
with the complete medications data-base and is
updated for the practice. Prescriptions may be
printed or faxed from the system. Single or multiple
medications can be refilled very quickly and a
complete history of all medications that the patient
has been on is always available. The EMR
will also alert the physician to any interactions.
