Modernizing Medicine Exhibits Award-Winning Dermatology Solutions at the American Academy of Dermatology's 2017 Summer Meeting
Specialty-specific health information technology leader, Modernizing
Medicine, Inc., will showcase its comprehensive dermatology suite, modmed
Dermatology™ and award-winning electronic health record (EHR)
system, EMA (News - Alert)™, at the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Summer
Meeting in New York, New York.
Ranked by Black Book as the #1
EHR system for dermatologists for four consecutive years, EMA was
designed to help increase efficiencies, drive value-based decisions,
reduce healthcare costs and promote quality care. The company recently
announced that through Modernizing Medicine's Physician Quality
Reporting System (PQRS) qualified registry, 3,438 providers were able to
successfully submit 2016 data to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS) and meet the PQRS minimum requirements.
EMA continues to support clients' compliance mandates under the new
Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) program through built-in
MIPS intelligence. Similar to the technology that led PQRS success
rates, the solution offers intuitive composite score reporting, robust
analytics and benchmarking reports that document healthcare providers'
performance in near real-time directly in EMA.
"2017 has been a year of change and opportunity for the healthcare
industry. With value-based payment models currently underway, the sector
is one step closer to improving quality of care for patients and
ensuring better, more accurate reimbursement for providers," said Dr.
Michael Sherling, chief medical and strategy officer and co-founder of
Modernizing Medicine. "At the same time, these changes have constituted
a substantial hurdle for many private practices. To benefit from thes
new models, dermatologists must have the right technology solution in
place that can accurately document patient encounters with structured
data and track their performance with robust analytics and benchmarking
tools. This facilitates more accurate and efficient quality of care
reporting and ensures the practice is fully reimbursed for their
services."
At the AAD Summer Meeting, Modernizing Medicine will showcase its cloud,
mobile and touch-based dermatology-specific products and services within
the modmed Dermatology suite, including its new patient kiosk, modmed
Kiosk™. The kiosk is Modernizing Medicine's latest platform built to
increase patient engagement by speeding up the check-in process and
having patients update their profile information, medical history and
sign consent forms on an iPad. Kiosk integrates with EMA directly, adds
data to the patient's record and is a component of Modernizing
Medicine's patient engagement strategy designed to save practices time
and improve efficiencies, leading to better outcomes.
The products and services being showcasing during the event include:
