MONTVALE, NJ--(Marketwire - Nov 6, 2012) - SRS, the leader in productivity-enhancing EHR technology and services for high-performance physicians, today announced that Eye Health Services has selected the SRS EHR to replace its current EHR for its 21 providers. Eye Health Services has 11 locations in Massachusetts and is one of the premier eye care facilities in the state.
"Our previous EHR was too cumbersome, and made it very difficult for our ophthalmologists to productively document patient exams -- the number of clicks and the time required grew more and more frustrating with each patient encounter. We could not practice like that, so our physicians simply stopped using it," says M. Lisa McHam, M.D., Eye Health Services. "SRS is an EHR that we can actually use throughout our high-volume practice -- its design provides our physicians with flexibility that mimics our individual styles of practicing medicine."
"We want to participate in the meaningful use incentives program, but it was clear that we would never meet the requirements with our former EHR, given the need to capture data with what felt like a thousand extra clicks per exam," says John Mandeville, M.D., Eye Health Services. "The SRS approach to meaningful use is unique -- the data capturing and reporting capabilities are streamlined and fit into our workflows naturally."
"SRS' history of working with large, high-volume ophthalmology groups has given the company a keen understanding of the way our specialty practices medicine, and it is clearly evident in their EHR," says Randy C. Shepard, CEO of Eye Health Services. "Our experience has made us savvy buyers, and we can clearly see the value that SRS delivers to ophthalmologists."
"Ophthalmology differs greatly from other specialties in the way that physicians practice and document their exams, creating unique needs that are not well served by the typical EHR," says Evan Steele, CEO of SRS. "With roots in ophthalmology, SRS has built a solid history of success in the specialty by removing the constraints inherent to other EHRs and building productivity and flexibility into the core of our technology."
