Misys has developed a flexible product package and pricing system to help ensure a quick return on investment (ROI) for your family practice. In a study we recently undertook with a major consulting firm, it became clear that over eighty percent of the benefits of using EMR systems can be gained even if the physician does not touch the software or hardware. This means you can choose to leave the patient interface and the examination room as they are, without sacrificing the financial benefits of using an EMR system.
Because we've worked with physician practices for so long, we know that one solution doesn't fit the needs of every organization. Therefore, Misys EMR was designed as modular components. Modules such as orders management and document imaging can be implemented in early phases, while point of care charting and charge passing can be implemented later.
Or, if your practice is on a more accelerated timeframe, Misys can help you become fully operational from the start with supportive implementation and training. Choose the modules you need, when you need them – it's all up to you.

View Patient Summary Data Easily
|

View patient summary data on one screen. Take a quick glance at patient medications, allergies, problems, procedures, chart notes, clinical alert notes and more. You can also see lab results, patient-related e-mails and images scanned through Misys Document Manager™. Expand the screen for more detail – even jump to entry screens. Drop-down lists, buttons and tabs make navigating a breeze. You customize the Summary Screen to display the information you want to see.

Complete Chart Notes Quickly
|
|
|
Predefined templates add ease and efficiency to exams and procedures, such as complete physical exams and EKG reports.
Build a note by selecting structured text from glossaries, entering vitals and even writing free text. Plus, add medications,
allergies, problems and procedures to a chart note. You can preview a chart note during its creation and print or fax it on demand. And, if you use Coding Assistant, you can check chart notes for CMS (formerly HCFA) coding compliance.

Document Imaging
|
|
|
Misys Document Manager is a state-of-the-art document management system that imports and electronically stores files and documents such as lab and pathology reports, EKG results, discharge summaries and EOBs. Once stored electronically, documents can be easily retrieved for viewing, faxing or printing. When used with
the Misys EMR system, Misys Document Manager allows scanned or imported documents to become part of a patient's electronic medical record.

Enter Orders, Retrieve Test Results and More

Write Accurate and Legible Prescriptions
|
|

Say goodbye to illegible prescriptions and efficiently manage the refill requests with
Misys EMR's prescription tool. Ensure accuracy and reduce time spent on refill requests by selecting medications from a drug database or create a pick list of your most frequently prescribed medications. Use the drug utilization review feature to screen for potential drug therapy risks and print patient education information. You can also create state-specific prescription forms to ensure compliance with your state pharmacy
board requirements. Print or fax prescriptions and refill or discontinue medications with ease.

Advanced Reporting

Turn information into knowledge with Misys Query™, a set of Windows®-based tools for data analysis and reporting. The tool set includes two powerful applications –
Impromptu® and PowerPlay®, both from Cognos®, the industry leader in third party reporting tools. The two leverage your Misys practice management database, which is fully integrated with Misys EMR, to generate custom reports on any field in the system. The end result is one- to three-dimensional data for analysis.
