MONTVALE, NJ--(Marketwire - May 12, 2010) - SRS, the leader in high-performance hybrid EMRs, today announced that Anchorage Fracture & Orthopedic Clinic (AFOC) has selected the SRS hybrid EMR for their 12 orthopedic specialists, 8 physical therapists, and 4 mid-level providers. AFOC opened its doors in 1969 and is the largest orthopaedic practice in Alaska.
"With the SRS hybrid EMR, I have around-the-clock, easy access to complete patient information, which enables me to respond to patient inquiries quickly whether I'm in the office, in remote Alaska, or at home," says Richard Garner, M.D., AFOC. "Not only is this much more efficient for me, but it's highly advantageous that our clinical notes retain their unique character. Not all entries look like a simple regurgitation of all patients' histories, as would occur with a traditional EHR."
"The SRS hybrid EMR enhances our office workflow while not slowing down the physicians," says Paige Cripe, Executive Director, AFOC. "Having all patient information digitally organized in the patient chart saves valuable time for the staff and the physicians. We have only been on the system for nine months but have already reduced the workload of our backoffice personnel. We are certain that the SRS hybrid EMR will improve the overall efficiency of the whole clinic, including the physicians."
SRS was designed with direct input by its high-performance physicians to provide them with a system that fits their needs with emphasis on not slowing them down. SRS, which has built the largest national network of high-performance practices that successfully use an EMR, attributes its unmatched adoption rate to ease of use, fast implementation, and an accelerated timeframe for training physicians and office staff.
"The SRS hybrid EMR is a flexible, efficient EMR that focuses on the needs of specialists," says Evan Steele, CEO of SRSsoft. "Anchorage Fracture & Orthopedic Clinic has made a choice that will help them accomplish their goals, just as 135 other orthopaedic SRS clients have done. We're confident they will be successful with our hybrid EMR and are excited to have them join our growing national network of 5,000 providers."
