Many of you are aware of Core Measure 15 for Meaningful Use and have asked us for guidance. Specifically, the measure calls for each facility to conduct a Risk Assessment. Acentec has spent the past several months evaluating solutions for our clients. After analyzing the situation, we have come up with a Risk Assessment solution for your practice. The solution offered by Acentec will include a complete set of current HIPAA Policies and Procedures, live initial employee privacy training, and a Risk Assessment conducted on your facility by our network engineers.

Improve care efficiency. Dragon Medical Practice Edition offers virtually instant response time, saving clinicians valuable minutes in their day – no more waiting for transcribed reports or needing to type into their EHRs.

Reduce transcription and the cost of documentation. Using speech recognition technology, clinicians dictate, edit and sign medical records at the point of care, eliminating as much as $12,000 in annual transcription costs.

Spend more time with patients. Increased accuracy means fewer errors to correct, which lets clinicians spend more time with patients, improving both quality of care and patient satisfaction.

Improve documentation. Documentation with Dragon Medical speech recognition technology – as opposed to notes built by point-and-click EHR templates alone – results in higher rates of reimbursement.

Secure patient information. Dragon Medical Practice Edition supports HIPAA patient confidentiality guidelines.

Improve physician satisfaction. With Dragon Medical Practice Edition, physicians look forward to practicing medicine – and getting home in time for dinner.

Increase reimbursement. A major study by a physician practice in the Northeast determined that using Dragon Medical with an EHR increases per-physician reimbursement by $10,000 per year per physician.

In order to qualify for the incentive, you must first prove meaningful use of a certified EMR. Meaningful use is defined as the use of certified EMR technology at point of care, such as e-prescribing, while ensuring connectivity and data sharing between other providers regardless of the EMR solution they use, and that clinical quality measures are reported to the Secretary. The reporting period for 2011 will be 90 days, and after that, the reporting period will be a full year.

For a clinic to qualify for the stimulus, it is vital that their EMR service is a certified provider. Acentec is proud to be among the EMR providers that will be certified. Partnered with Medinformatix, a Microsoft award-winning developer of medical practice workflow automation software, our e-prescribing provides clinics with electronic submission through a certified SureScripts connection.  Any physician interested in qualifying for the stimulus must implement this certified technology of electronic prescribing in their practice.
