Electronic Medical Records Software- Radiology Systems
Regardless of the medical field there is a type of EMR software that will be beneficial to your healthcare facility. For example, radiology systems can benefit from a wide variety of features offered through EMR software. There are usually radiology packages integrated with EMR software that are designed specifically to handle the special needs that exist within Radiology and Magnetic Imaging centers.
What to Look For
There are many different types of radiology system software that may be available and bundled with EMR software. Before making a choice, however, there are a few features you may want to ensure are in the package you choose. The following are a few of the more important ones.
First, make sure that the radiology system EMR software you choose also provides billing and claims, patient scheduling, imaging, and communication between various radiology groups. The goal is to choose EMR software that will improve work flow, improve patient services, reduce manual administrative duties, perform billing, view medical images, and retrieve data from medical exams.
The best EMR software program that integrates with a radiology system is one that can also handle digital dictation with speech recognition programs. Additionally, it is important to have a program that provides tools that analyze and report data. This type of feature is important because it allows for dictation, recognition and even corrections to be made over LAN, WAN, and the Internet, independent of the location.
Choose software that allows for clinicians and management to easily access data and improves the turnaround time for exam results all the while reducing the administrative workload. Overall, the software should improve productivity and efficiency.
There are generally options available when looking for this type of EMR radiology software. Choose between systems that offer a single radiologist and several users or upgrade to a system that allows multiple radiologists, tax IDs, and users.
Many EMR software systems are expected to be replaced over the next several years thanks to Federal stimulus money targeted for the implementation of electronic medical records systems in doctor’s practices and hospitals.
