NEW YORK, NY -- CHARTCARE, Inc. of New York announces that it
has been selected by the Barrie and Community Family Health Team
in Barrie, Ontario, Canada to implement their OntarioMD approved
Clinical Management Solution (CMS).
CHARTCARE will implement its Electronic Medical Records (EMR)
and Practice Management Applications (PMA) solution to 60
physicians and numerous additional healthcare providers at 35
different locations within the Barrie area starting next month.
Each practice will maintain their individual billing
environments but share all other common elements such as patient
scheduling, patient recalls, Electronic Medical Records, lab and
medication data. Almost 350 workstations will connect securely
through the province's Smart Systems for Health Agency (SSHA). |

"We
are a diverse group of family physicians who were in agreement
about networking and combining our patients into one
server/database for EMR", said Dr. Anne DuVall, lead physician
for Barrie and Community FHT. "We have followed a long and
diligent selection process. In addition to CHARTCARE's ability
to accommodate the many styles of physician workflow within our
team, it was important for us to choose a vendor that we felt
confident could institute a project of this magnitude".
"This is a proven deployment of a single patient record across
many locations, with a powerful security model", stated Dennis
Niebergal, president & CEO of CHARTCARE. "As with previous
negotiations in Ontario, we have appreciated the involvement of
Barrie's OntarioMD advisors as a project management resource.
Their expert advice helped eliminate confusion and reduced
deficiencies ensuring a more successful implementation and
better end result".
CHARTCARE's advantage is that our Trusted, Proven and Reliable
solution supports physicians' workflow and can be tailored to
meet individual physician needs. It helps enhance patient care,
improves patient safety and drives both physician and staff
productivity.
