Michigan ONC Certified EHR | Velocity Electronic Health Records from MobiuSoft

April 3, 2012 - PRLog -- Michigan ONC Certified EHR | Velocity Electronic Health Records from MobiuSoft. http://www.mobiusoft.net.
After 3 years of development and 18 months of pilot testing, Mobiusoft is excited to announce the general release of its Velocity ONC Certified Complete EHR and HIE platforms on April 1, 2012 with its first completely integrated installation being the Greater Flint Health Information Exchange (www.gfhie.com). The GFHIE currently provides electronic coordinated patient care with family practice, pediatrics, neurology, radiology, and chiropractic pilot clinicians managing more than 14,000patients living in Genesee, Lapeer, and Shiawassee counties. With the Velocity ONC Certified Complete EHR:

The patient has unrestricted access to their medical record across all health providers within a community.
The patient is now the “owner” of their medical record, can share it with any provider of their choosing, and has access from anywhere in the world.
Secure electronic communications with their healthcare providers, insurance companies, and the local health departments with documented date and time.
The patient no longer has to pay an administrative fee to the provider and wait up to 10 days to get a copy of their medical chart.
The patient can now receive their detailed lab and test results within one to five business days instead of waiting two to five weeks, or perhaps never receiving them at all.
Patients will no longer be required to provide patient registration and medical history at every point of healthcare access within a community.
Patients can impact the quality and customer service levels of healthcare within their community by participating in automatic surveys for each provider encounter (summary survey results will be available for all community participants).
Provider participation requires them to list their most frequent charges, education, special training, quantity of procedures performed, and more for the patient to access in order to make the best choice for their care.
Patients will feel more secure about their healthcare privacy by receiving electronic notification of when their medical chart has been accessed by a healthcare individual, at which time the patient may determine if their healthcare privacy has been violated and report it.
Patients can choose to receive electronic notification of preventive care opportunities, defined by industry standards of age, sex, and disease without relying on their own memory or individual provider practice patterns.
Long ago, we identified that the biggest challenge physicians were going to have was not implementing a Stage I compliant EHR. The biggest challenge was going to be supplementing an EHR with interfaces to meet Stage II requirements for electronically integrating with all facets of patient care coordination. We were right. Today, the costs to develop, certify, and implement the necessary EHR interfaces to HIEs, pharmacies, laboratories, and state registries, combined with training administrative and clinical staff, is cost prohibitive to the small physician practice. And enterprise systems that include those features range from $25,000 to $50,000 per clinician.

When the Mobiusoft Velocity EHR and HIE systems were being designed in early 2009, the current PCMH requirements and the future expectations for the CMS Electronic Health Record Incentive Program served as our blueprints. We knew that Velocity needed to provide enterprise features at a fraction of enterprise system prices. Through the use of cutting edge technology, we are able to provide just that. Velocity is a completely cloud-based web application that offers a feature-rich experience without sacrificing functionality. No more costly servers sitting in a closet or specialized software to maintain—if you have a computer running Windows 7 with internet connectivity, then you’re ready to use Velocity. Let us manage the servers, data, and software maintenance and support you with what you do best, delivering quality health care.
