Overview

Our EHR approach is focused on positive results for your practice.

Electronic health records (EHR) can be expensive and disruptive to office workflow. Even an “out of the box” software solution, one that seems simple, can have a negative ripple effect on other in-house processes, causing extra work and costing extra money. But implementing the right EHR can be advantageous both clinically and financially.

athenaClinicalsSM is our innovative web-based EHR solution. Because it’s web-based, we’re able to incorporate changing industry requirements and government mandates faster (such as P4P rules and the HITECH Act) without expensive software updates or long delays. athenaClinicals allows for clinicians’ varied styles of encounter documentation as well, offering a lower-risk adoption path to increase your practice’s efficiency, integrity, and control.

Our EHR solution is also backed by incredible service. Our Clinicals Intelligence team continuously works to identify new Pay-for-Performance (P4P) opportunities and makes it easier for your practice to participate in them. We take the non-critical work off your hands, so your practice can operate at its peak. For example, 86% of our clients say that they eliminated chart pulls within the first year – imagine how much time your practice could reclaim by doing the same.

athenaClinicals combines:

Be more efficient and effective, while getting paid more and faster.

With athenaClinicals, you have all the information you need to be efficient at the point of care. Documents related to your patient are scanned and filed in their electronic chart. Data required for incentive program participation is presented at the time of the patient’s visit. And, because our EHR is integrated with our practice management and billing solution, your clinical documentation automatically generates billing information for your patient’s visit.

While providing the features and benefits of traditional EHRs, we stand out from traditional software offerings through our unique service model. Most software EHRs require you to take on additional work to support complete EHR adoption. Extra work could include scanning and filing all incoming faxes (including lab results and referrals) and building and maintaining electronic interfaces. With athenaClinicals, our service team scans all of your faxes and sorts them for you, so each physician has the information they need, right when they need it. Each lab result is tied to its original “order,” and if a result doesn’t appear in the expected timeframe, it gets flagged for follow up, creating a closed-loop order process.

Our interfaces to labs and pharmacies are provided free of charge, providing seamless communication, faster turnaround, and fewer hassles. We also maintain these interfaces over time, to make sure they are continuously working for you. We do all of this so you can provide better care and reduce costs. The benefits start quickly; you can begin to boost your bottom line from day one.

It’s the perfect time to invest in athenaClinicals.

A lot is changing in the world of health care. You may have financial pressure to implement an EHR at some point soon, but with the HITECH Act criteria for certification still in flux, you might be tempted to wait until regulations are finalized.

There’s no need to wait. In fact, with incentives structured as they currently are, now may be the best time to adopt an EMR/EHR and start saving money with athenaClinicals. While the terms “certified EHR,” and “meaningful use,” are still being defined, our EHR already meets widely accepted industry standards for certification established by the independent Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT). Our EHR is also well positioned to meet the conditions for “meaningful use” as defined by Health and Human Services. It allows for e-prescribing, electronic exchange of clinical data, and submission of clinical quality measures.

While government mandates and provisions will evolve and change, we are well positioned to support these changes, constantly integrating them into our web-based EHR without additional cost to your practice or disruption to your daily workflow.
