Park City Healthcare Chooses iMedica Electronic Health Record (EHR) And Practice Management (PM) Technology

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--iMedica Corporation, a leading developer of healthcare software solutions for physician practices, announced today that Park City Healthcare in Utah, one of the largest clinics in the area, has chosen iMedica's Electronic Health Record (EHR) and Practice Management (PM) solution after an extensive search.

Park City Healthcare is a 10-physician practice in Utah's premier ski resort city. Because of the heavy influx of out-of-state skiers every winter, the practice experiences a surge of urgent-care patients during ski season equal to what a practice of 20-25 physicians would see. Given those and other requirements, Park City Healthcare searched for an EHR provider for more than two years before deciding on the iMedica Patient Relationship Manager™ (PRM).

"iMedica is the one solution that could help our front office staff rapidly and accurately process new patient registration. It enables our physicians to complete documentation in the examining room for the wide variety of patients we see every day, especially during the height of the winter sports season," said Bill Pidwell, M.D., of Park City Healthcare. "Furthermore, the iMedica solution uses superior technology, allowing me to document visits at any time, without worrying about weather-related power outages. With doctors who have different levels of computer experience, we found that iMedica's EHR was superior in both speed and ease of note completion."

iMedica's PRM is a fully-integrated solution that uses Microsoft's flexible .NET technology, a unique feature that replicates data onto a tablet PC or laptop, enabling clinicians to access or update patient charts from anywhere and at anytime without being connected to the Internet, LAN or WAN. The iMedica PRM also offers total security by repopulating data lost in a power outage or disaster. PRM 2008 enhancements include fully integrated PQRI reporting, robust medication and vaccine management functions, reimbursement maximization tools and an advanced collections module.

"The physicians at Park City Healthcare wanted to process charts quickly and not be tethered to a location or the electrical grid," said Michael Nissenbaum, CEO of iMedica. "iMedica's single-application PRM employs the latest technology and, as a result, we excel in exceeding expectations and delivering on physician needs."
