Modernizing Medicine Unveils Telemedicine Solution and Other Enhancements in Dermatology EMR System at the American Academy of Dermatology Summer Meeting 2015Modernizing Medicine, Inc., the creator of the Electronic Medical Assistant® (EMA (News - Alert)™), a cloud-based, specialty-specific electronic medical record (EMR) system, announced today it will reveal a new telemedicine solution within EMA Dermatology® at this year's American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Summer Meeting in New York, New York. Ranked the #1 EHR system for dermatologists by Black Book Rankings for the second consecutive year, this native iPad and desktop application will now also include timesaving protocols, multispecialty functionality and advanced outbound faxing capabilities.
Telemedicine "Because our telemedicine solution is integrated within EMA Dermatology, a patient's data - including photos patients send for examination - is captured and stored in one place, said Dr. Michael Sherling, co-founder and chief medical officer at Modernizing Medicine. "Telemedicine helps provide flexible healthcare services to housebound patients or those that don't have time for an office visit or live in a remote location, while enabling physicians to maintain their patient base and bill appropriately."
Additional New Features "At Modernizing Medicine, we pride ourselves on providing the most sophisticated yet intuitive and user friendly system for physicians, and I could not be more excited about the work our team has done to bring our new features to fruition," said Daniel Cane, CEO and co-founder of Modernizing Medicine. "Our team has done a tremendous job on combining so many different levels of reporting and diagnosing, and I am confident these additions to EMA will give back more time to physicians so they can focus on patient care." Practicing dermatologists code the software, so EMA Dermatology contains built-in specialty-specific medical knowledge as a way to provide physicians with an extremely intuitive and intelligent system. EMA Dermatology is ready for ICD-10, with codes pre-integrated into the software to support automated coding. In addition, EMA is certified for Meaningful Use1 and includes PQRS reporting capabilities. EMA's structured data makes it simpler for physicians to document and track patient progress, creating a smoother transition to quality-of-care reporting and outcome-based reimbursements. New capabilities will be showcased at the AAD Summer Meeting booth #407. To learn more about Modernizing Medicine and EMA Dermatology, please visit www.modmed.com.
