Birmingham/Montgomery, Alabama, July 13, 2010……As part of the strong commitment to facilitate the activities surrounding health information exchange, MediSYS has announced plans to release the MediSYS Physician Information Network in the first quarter of 2011. This MediSYS Physician Information Network will allow providers treating mutual patients to share pertinent health information electronically. Quickly and securely sharing information within a network of providers such as labs and diagnostic information, office notes, hospital documents, patient demographics, etc. will assist providers in the diagnosis and treatment of a patient.This physician information network streamlines the referral process by making provider-selected information immediately available to the referred-to physician. In addition, clinical data generated by the referred-to physician may be electronically transmitted back to original referring physician or onto another physician group if needed. This immediate access to patient information eliminates the need for the clinic to print, fax, scan, and mail the relevant information. The result is a huge savings in human resources and helps streamline patient care which is a major element in healthcare initiatives.
MediSYS has already established and implemented a high level of connectivity across the healthcare community in Alabama. With the current MediSYS EHR interoperability with 18 hospitals all over state, national and local lab reference companies, SureScripts, Medicaid Together for Quality, and others, providers already have access to a wealth of patient health information. With current electronic health record system links to over 300 Alabama providers, it is a logical extension for MediSYS to offer a network among physicians to share health information generated within the clinic. The addition of the MediSYS Physician Information Network is expected to become a significant resource to further enhance initiatives to foster information exchange across the state and across the nation.
MediSYS is 100% dedicated to improving the workflow and revenue of physicians, and has been for over twenty years. MediSYS serves more than a thousand physicians through medical practice management software, electronic health records, medical billing services and practice management services.

2010Birmingham, AL, March 12, 2010......As part of MediSYS' commitment to streamline healthcare information, MediSYS announced today the addition of ordering LabCorp tests from within MediSYS ePrescribe and MediSYS Electronic Health Records. Electronic lab results have been available for practices with qualifying external lab volume for sometime from over 10 external lab reference companies direct to MediSYS EHR or ePrescribe. The addition of LabCorp orders from within these applications will unify lab test processing and streamline documentation for many healthcare providers.
This bi-directional interface with MediSYS and LabCorp will eliminate the practice having to place orders via a separate LabCorp PC or other method. With this new release, for those who meet the LabCorp requirements, practices may order a lab test from MediSYS EHR or ePrescribe in just a few clicks. The LabCorp order is automatically documented in the patient's record then transmitted real-time to LabCorp for processing. The lab results are then automatically matched to the order creating a complete record of the lab activity. Lab orders that do not have an associated result are reported as an outstanding lab for follow up. Fewer steps for lab orders, cross-referenced results and automatic documentation lead to better patient care and efficient quality control.
In addition to the LabCorp bi-directional electronic ordering & results interface, a bi-directional interface with Southern Diagnostic Laboratories is available. Lab result interfaces with MediSYS EHR and MediSYS ePrescribe include: LabCorp, Quest, Southern Diagnostic Laboratories, Doctors Laboratories, Skin Pathology, Cytopath, Bostwick Laboratories, Cunningham Pathology, Orchard Lab, Alabama Pathology, Bridger Pathologies Lab, and others.

2009MediSYS ePrescribe
Handheld Access
Birmingham, AL (August 21, 2009) - MediSYS announced today the addition of a handheld mobile application for the growing number of providers now using electronic prescribing. This mobile application will allow physicians to securely prescribe medications and electronically route prescriptions using a handheld device to SureScripts, the country's largest national electronic prescribing network. "With the surge in the adoption of ePrescribe in 2009, adding access from a Smartphone or other handheld device for MediSYS ePrescribe will only expand the already growing number of providers who use this service as a tool in patient care", according to Jimmy Chapman, developer of MediSYS ePrescribe and MediSYS EHR. In the U.S. over 100,000 providers are sending prescriptions electronically according to SureScripts.
The significant growth in ePrescribe is due in part to CMS incentives which may qualify the provider for a 2% incentive based on their Medicare allowed amount. In addition to the incentive, Chapman attributes the popularity of ePrescribe to fast access to information regarding possible contraindications, medication history and allergies. Contraindication checking includes drug-to-drug, drug-to-disease, and drug-to-allergy interactions. "Virtually anywhere-access to possible drug allergies, current medications, and possible interactions is a resource that is now available from a handheld device using MediSYS ePrescribe. MediSYS ePrescribe, is not only a time-saver for physicians, it is of great benefit to patients as well," commented Chapman. With electronic prescribing, a patient's prescription is submitted to the pharmacy before the patient arrives and it eliminates mistakes due to illegible hand-writing. Physicians also have handheld access to medication and pharmacy preferences with MediSYS ePrescribe.
MediSYS' ePrescribe is SureScripts certified and is compatible with Android OS, Window's Mobile, Apple's iPhone, BlackBerry, Palm, Smartphone, and iPod Touch.
Future enhancements to the features available on these devices are underway for MediSYS ePrescribe and MediSYS Electronic Health Records. Additional functionality is scheduled to be released by the end of the year including the ability to view incoming lab results. For more information regarding handheld access for MediSYS ePrescribe or MediSYS EHR, contact MediSYS at 205.631.5969 or eprescribe@medisysinc.com.
