Solutions: Electronic Medical Records - EMR Overview
digiChart OB-GYN, our specialty-specific Electronic Medical Record (EMR), is designed for the unique clinical workflow of an OB-GYN practice. This easy-to-use, Internet-based EMR allows you to document patient visits quickly and gives you the critical information you need to make appropriate medical decisions. From anywhere at anytime, clinicians always have access to updated patient health information, alerts, medications, allergies, lab and test results and relevant medical history.
Our EMR comes pre-built for OB-GYN, containing hundreds of commonly used diagnoses, procedures and medication formularies. There are no time-consuming templates and forms for you to build. Everything you need to manage patients is built into the design of the EMR. While other EMRs may claim to be adequate for obstetrics and gynecology, only digiChart was initially designed with OB-GYN physicians to mirror the workflow of an OB-GYN practice and streamline that process.
Our innovative Patient Portal provides your patients with ultimate convenience. Before their appointments, patients can communicate their medical histories via the Internet. Providers can review this information prior to the visit and spend more visit time on examination and education. Each woman's record contains a patient history summary with LMP, blood type, last pap smear, last mammogram, EDD updates, ultrasound information, problem list, medications and more. These OB-GYN-specific tools, plus the ACOG Antepartum Record and Flowsheet, are directly incorporated into digiChart OB-GYN.
digiChart OB-GYN automates and reduces repetitive administrative tasks and improves communication throughout the practice with a dynamic phone management and inbox system. Information and decisions flow seamlessly between clinicians and staff, and risk is reduced because your practice manages patients from consistent, legible electronic records. Even hospital labor and delivery staff can be granted read-only access to a patient's ACOG Antepartum Record, so everyone provides care with the most current information.
With digiChart OB-GYN, your practice will "go paperless" and consequently save the costs of chart pulls as well as the time looking for lost charts. Patient care is enhanced through alerts, allergy screening, and clinical reminders. Your lifestyle is greatly improved because digiChart OB-GYN's anytime accessibility frees you to manage your time as you wish. For your practice, transcription fees can be eliminated, billing and coding is improved, and digiChart OB-GYN may lead to reduced malpractice insurance premiums.
