eCareSoft's Ambulatory EHR Receives ONC-ATCB Certification by Drummond Group
AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- eCareSoft, Inc. has received the federal government's "meaningful use" stamp of approval by earning Complete EHR Ambulatory Certification for its eCS Nimbo solution. The designation officially deems the electronic health record (EHR) software capable of enabling providers to qualify for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). Tested and certified under the Drummond Group's Electronic Health Records Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ONC-ATCB) program, the EHR software is 2011/2012 compliant in accordance with the criteria adopted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services.
"We're excited about the certification of eCS Nimbo for physician clinics," stated Jorge Luis Camargo, Chief Strategy Officer. "Combined with our certified complete inpatient EHR, we can now offer clients a seamless continuity of care between referring physicians and their community hospitals," added Camargo.
Drummond Group's ONC-ATCB 2011/2012 certification program tests and certifies that EHRs meet the meaningful use criteria for either eligible provider or hospital technology. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology -- a key component of the federal government's push to improve clinical care delivery through the adoption and effective use of EHRs by U.S. healthcare providers.
eCS Nimbo(TM), which met the requirements for Complete EHR Ambulatory, offers physicians the security and mobility of eCareSoft's technology coupled with a seamless integration of practice management, revenue cycle management, EMR, and e-prescribing. Nimbo delivers the industry's best return on investment for quickly achieving Meaningful Use objectives without the typical workflow disruptions.
"The need to leverage information technology in the healthcare industry is huge - as the quality of care and efficiency benefits that come with computerization can really make a difference in the overall patient experience. We're ready to help transform the industry by providing the sophisticated software testing services that ensure that vendors and hospitals are offering systems that are capable of meeting the meaningful use standards required to obtain incentive funds as well as the rich functionality required to move the clinical care needle forward," says Rik Drummond, CEO of the Drummond Group. "We have been testing software for more than a decade and are ready to leverage our extensive experience handling sophisticated systems in complex industries as well as dealing with complicated technical issues such as interoperability and security."
