Andromeda PMS + EMR is a computer program that combines conventional Practice Management tasks with Electronic Medical Records.

This is a young, sleek, and modern program that is up-to-date. It is HIPAA-compliant right out of the box. It is constantly maintained to add the changes asked for by insurance companies, and is updated at the server, not the desktop, so that updates are instant and system wide. Best of all, we take care of the updates, there are no chores for you to worry about!

The Basics: Scheduling and Billing

This is a fully internet-enabled browser-based application. It employs the latest technology used by giants such as Google.

The "PMS" part of "Andromeda PMS + EMR" focuses on the conventional tasks of Scheduling and Billing, but this is not just another old-fashioned blue-screen DOS program, nor an Access-based klunker. This is a fully internet-enabled browser-based application. It employs the latest technology used by giants such as Google and Yahoo.

The Advantages of A Newer System

• HIPAA compliance was built in from the start, not hacked in as an afterthought.
• With Insurance companies squeezing all of the time, you need more than a billing system, you need a smart system that gives you real summaries and statistics about your practice.
• EMR was built in from the start, it is integrated seemlessly into the scheduling and billing systems.
• Everything happens in real time, claims are visible the instant you code.

"They keep changing the rules on us all of the time, and the old system is hopeless, and the new systems we've looked at don't even have the features of the old."

A New Approach to EMR

When we undertook to write Andromeda PMS + EMR in early 2005, we knew that EMR would be built right in from the start.

But EMR has been around a long time, and has faced stiff resistance, so we looked very closely at why that was came up with a fresh approach that our doctors find very appealing. It helps the practioner instead of getting in the way, and leaves the doctor in complete control at all times.

If the Staff Ain't Happy....

Too often new software either fails of causes more problems around the office than it solves. Up until now, software vendors in the medical practice management market have forced office staff to work the way the program was easiest to write. We've changed that. We asked "how do you want to work, and how can we fit the program to your needs?' The are some of the features that work toward that end:

• Plenty of keyboard shortcuts and easy-access screens, we know your receptionist is juggling phone calls while printing the encounter forms, the system anticipates her needs.
• Fingertips, your billing manager can always find any claim for any patient at any time. Andromeda never says, "Oh, we can't get that out of the computer."
• Extensive searches and cross-indexing, never lose any information.
• Open multiple screens at any one time. No longer be hampered by single track programs.
