Medios EHR System Is One of The First EHR's to Successfully Connect to Atlantic Coast HIE

IOS Health Systems (IOS), a leading innovator of web-based ambulatory electronic health record (EHR) and practice management software, announces its web-based Medios EHR system is one of the first EHR's to successfully connect to the Atlantic Coast Health Information Exchange (HIE). In October, 2011, Memorial Healthcare System (MHS) selected IOS to be a Partner EHR Solution provider for their physician EHR Donation Program assisting physicians adopt electronic health records. As an Atlantic Coast HIE Participating Vendor, IOS is providing a seamless connection to the HIE allowing Memorial physicians to receive select information from the hospital medical records directly into the Medios EHR system. Physicians now have the ability to securely share records with other healthcare entities which increase continuity of patient care. The benefit of having a fully integrated electronic health record from the point of service, through the medical claims process, to include labs and diagnostic testing performed at Memorial network hospitals helps promote access to medical information at the point of patient care.

The connection between Medios EHR and the Atlantic Coast HIE provides many efficiencies and cost savings such as decreased orders of duplicate tests, easier delivery of results and reduced costs through decreased faxing, scanning, and delivery of paper medical records. Additionally, it provides a broader view of a patient' s health record including information from the hospital to facilitate decision making and understand trends for patients. Memorial Healthcare System has designed the Atlantic Coast HIE to be expandable to other hospitals and healthcare systems in South Florida.
 
''We continue to provide ways to bring our physicians more value while enhancing the care being delivered to their patients. The access and exchange of health information benefits everyone involved. We applaud the Atlantic Coast HIE for their coordination of this impressive collaboration within our community,'' states Andrew Carricarte, IOS Health Systems President and CEO.
 
IOS Health Systems is a locally headquartered EHR provider and was approved for the EHR Program by Memorial Healthcare System after a rigorous evaluation and review of the nation's top EHR vendors. Memorial strives to provide their physicians with the latest in healthcare technology ensuring, safe, cost-effective medical care to the patients they serve. Using the Medios system will enable physicians to demonstrate Meaningful Use criteria and qualify for Federal Incentive Funds.
