Touch screens have seemingly infiltrated every aspect of life, but they have had some struggled when it comes to the doctor’s office. Many doctors like the portability of a touch screen device, but often can’t find an electronic medical record that integrates well with the touch screen. With MediTouch by HealthFusion, doctors can get access to a fully integrated, Web-based, touch screen Electronic Health Record. While MediTouch is designed to work seamlessly with the iPad and iTouch, doctors can use it with any touch screen device. MediTouch offers an easy-to-use interface with advanced features, such as one portal, one password, and unlimited user accounts. Although MediTouch is optimized for fingertip touch, it does work with traditional desktop workstations, netbooks or laptops. It also works with dictation systems like Dragon medical. MediTouch offers a system that ‘Thinks like a Doctor.’ Displays are formatted similar to how doctors are trained to chart. It offers easy-to-navigate screens and it makes entering information simple. MediTouch helps keep the focus on the patient. The easy-to-navigate interface means doctors aren’t trapped behind the desk entering patient information. MediTouch EHR is fully integrated with HealthFusion's Practice Management and Clearinghouse solutions, which includes registration, scheduling, claims, billing, and collections. MediTouch is fully customizable and requires no software purchase. In addition, MediTouch is HIPAA-compliant, EHNAC-accredited, and CAQH CORE Phase 1-certified. There are no upgrade or technical support fees and HealthFusion offers live, in-house, US-based phone and email support. | |||
