Sandhills Pediatrics Selects the SRS Hybrid EMR for Its 14 Providers and 4 Locations

Comparative Benchmarking Confirmed Productivity and Physician Focus of SRS Hybrid EMR


MONTVALE, NJ--(Marketwire - August 9, 2010) -  SRS, the leader in high-performance hybrid EMRs, today announced that Sandhills Pediatrics has selected the SRS hybrid EMR for its 14 providers. Sandhills Pediatrics has four offices in the greater Columbia, South Carolina, area and has served the community's families since 1975.

"I see 38-45 patients a day, so I wanted an EMR that would easily adapt to my workflow and not hinder the pace of my schedule," says Kevin O. Wessinger, M.D., Sandhills Pediatrics. "The SRS hybrid EMR allows me to practice the way I like, while eliminating the gross inefficiencies of a paper-centric office. Implementation was smooth -- we didn't have to compromise our productivity at all, even during the first few days!"

"The stopwatch doesn't lie. During our EMR selection process, we looked at several traditional, point-and-click systems and a free online EMR," says Ken Fenchel, Practice Administrator, Sandhills Pediatrics. "We timed how long it takes to perform common workflow tasks with each EMR and realized that SRS is the easiest and fastest by far. The higher level of productivity is critical to our physicians' ability to provide quality care to our high volume of patients."

SRS was designed with direct input by its high-performance physicians to provide them with a system that fits their needs, helps them to work more efficiently, and enables them to achieve a rapid return on their investment. 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.

"If more practices took the time to do comparative benchmarking, the rate of successful EMR adoptions would increase," says Evan Steele, CEO of SRSsoft. "We are confident that Sandhills -- like our other pediatric practice clients -- will see immediate and ongoing benefits with SRS throughout their offices, and we are very happy to have them join our growing national network of 5,000 providers."
