NextGen EMR applications support connectivity with diagnostic devices (EKGs, ultrasounds, and those that record vital signs, for instance) to create a seamless and more accurate method to capture, view, and record patient data at the point of care. This connectivity gives physicians real-time access to up-to-date patient data, which ultimately ensures delivery of a higher quality of care.
This sophisticated functionality creates interfaces to transfer discrete data elements captured through the medical devices directly into the patient’s central record within NextGen EMR. Not only does this facilitate broader tracking and evaluation of patient data, it also eliminates the need for staff to manually enter information into the EMR, eliminating lost readings, transcription errors, and duplicate data entry. Device connectivity speeds the turnaround of test results and makes patient diagnostic information more readily available to physicians at the point of care, helping to generate alerts of important changes in a patient’s status.
Note: Some features may require additional purchase or incur separate charges.
