TechAmerica E-Health Webinar: Opportunities in Electronic Medical Records (EMRS)

Electronic Medical Records (EMRS) offer a tremendous opportunity to: reduce overall healthcare costs, improve quality of care for patients and save lives.

EMRs are one of the major components of health information technology that could transform our healthcare system as we know it. Technology alone will not fix our healthcare system, but it provides a major step toward that monumental goal. This is a role that all impacted industries must be engaged in!

Imagine a world where your physical location does not determine the quality of healthcare you receive.

Imagine having real time access to nurses, physicians, even specialists who are hundreds or thousands of miles away.

Imagine the opportunity to provide clinicians with instantaneous feedback on a patient's medical condition. How radically could diagnoses and healthcare outcomes improve?

Hospitals and Hospital systems have joined a virtual network, enabling them to share information on clinical practices and make improvements in care. The network will specifically focus on intensive-care units. How can we support these efforts and the value it brings to patient care and controlling healthcare cost?

Insurers see an opportunity for their information technology initiatives in switching to the ICD-10 coding system. Many of those insured plan to leverage ICD-10 to drive broader system and operational changes that improve their connectivity to providers, members and brokers; reduce costs; and enhance clinical outcomes.
