To facilitate continued growth and easy sharing of patient data among community physician practices Quality will host Misys EMR, enabling its physicians to capture and store patient information across care settings. The use of Misys EMR will improve and expedite the care process by providing physicians with instant access to patient data. Misys Vision will provide practice management capabilities to streamline front office workflow allowing practitioners across a multitude of specialties to organize the course of a patients’ treatment by allowing users to view previous and upcoming appointments or consultations with ease.
“The ability to quickly access and share patient data is a key component of any growing multi-specialty healthcare network,” said R.L. (Vern) Davenport, executive vice president and general manager of Misys Healthcare Systems. “Misys solutions will allow physicians within the Quality Infusion Care, Inc. network to quickly access electronic patient records and spend more time treating and interacting with their patients.”
