Only for the discriminating physicians. User friendly, Apple-like interface (GUI)

As a clinician, you know how medicine has been overrun by insurance companies, payors, CMS and consultants. I did some time ago.

Today I look back after retiring from patient care due to a multiplicity of health challenges and have dedicated my end of career activity to studying, researching and writing about health information technology.  Fort those of you who know my acerbic writing style, you have read my blog here and Health Train Express.  For those of you who have not, here, here, and here are another opportunity to do so.

Admittedly I do a great deal of copying and pasting or scraping as bloggers call it.  Another elite term is 'curating'.  The archives of my blogs are dusty, full of spider webs, and discarded bits and bytes of obsolete news.  The half-life of health information technology breakthroughs, paradigm shifts, sea-changes, transformations, or a quantum leap forward is about 12 months.



EMA, developed by Modern Medicine is a no-nonsense EMR with an almost cartoon-like graphic user interface.. It spoon-feeds clinicians requiring little intellectual energy and allowing cognitive functioning to focus on the content and processing medical information, rather than the ABCs of the EHR.  It follows KISS philosophy (keep it simple, stupid).

Some EHRs claim to be built for practices of any specialty. But how can that be true when each specialty is so drastically different? Unlike other one-size doesn’t quite fit all EHR systems, our solution, EMA®, is tailored to fit your workflow as a specialist for the fields of Dermatology, Ophthalmology, Orthopedics, Otolaryngology, and Plastic Surgery.

Built for and by practicing physicians in various medical specialties, you’ll experience the built-in knowledge that can make all the difference. With its adaptive learning engine, our dermatology EHR system will learn how you frequently describe certain diagnoses and like to treat patients.

For example, if you’re performing a biopsy by shave, EMA will know how you like to set up your biopsy tray. When using our ophthalmology EHR in the exam room, you can pinch and zoom on any diagram and the system will automatically suggest ICD-10 codes for you. EMA is so specific, it’s even built for ophthalmic subspecialties. For example, if you’re a retina specialist, easily review an OCT by touching and clicking on an image with our native iPad EHR.

For orthopedic surgeons, easily order and document x-ray interpretations within the exam using dictation, and sticky findings. As an otolaryngologist, you can quickly document a chief complaint such as hoarseness and indicate the area of concern using drawing tools. If you work in a plastic surgery practice, EMA adjusts to your unique style of practice and recognizes your preferences, such as a suture or implant types.

Once you have the clinical flow in place with our specialty-focused EHR system, you can give your practice an added boost by combining the power of practice management technology with our professional business operations services. Known as modmed® BOOST, we focus on addressing the operational and financial aspects of your practice while you focus on your patients.

Then, by using Modernizing Medicine’s Analytics platform, you may gain valuable insights to help improve visibility into practice performance by visualizing and benchmarking data. Now, how about patient engagement? By harnessing the power of tools such as patient portal, kiosk, reminders and surveys, our solutions can save your staff valuable time.

Here are some useful examples from various specialties,

Radiology
Dermatology
ENT
Plastic Surgery
