More activity on the IPA/HMO business in northern California. As you can see by the dates projected, this is a long process for roll out to all. As we all know, IT change has been reluctant and slow with small practices and this is perhaps another way to reach out and bring small practices in to the 21st century with technology. We still see all the "fax chasers" and paper charts being carted manually from room to room in many offices. More consumers are now cognizant too of whether or not an office is still using paper, it's noticed within the first few minutes normally of a visit with the rush and disorganization that is just not there with a practice that is organized and using electronic records and technology to manage their patient care. Organized offices are spending less time on the phone these days as well so they can devote more time to the patient at the time of the visit. BD
Muir Medical Group IPA's plan is to roll out EMR -- with ITelagen's help -- to 200 providers by 2010. "We were looking down the road," Haegeland said, "and seeing that it was going to be extremely difficult for an individual practice to survive as an island." ITelagen provides a fully staffed IT department with the expertise to keep networks, PC's, software and people running smoothly. The service also includes unlimited onsite and remote technical support for employees, antivirus software and management; plus proactive computer health monitoring and online backup of data.
