Managing your gastroenterology practice efficiently requires the right tools, and an integrated GI EHR system can make all the difference. With features like scheduling software that eliminates double documentation and scheduling errors, your practice can stay organized and reduce operational disruptions. A gastro EHR also enhances decision-making with easy-to-access, real-time clinical data through canned reports, empowering your team to make data-driven choices. Additionally, with infection prevention tools like scope tracking and electronic health record management, you can ensure safety and compliance. Combine this with e-prescribing and a robust patient portal, and you’re not only improving efficiency but also enhancing patient care and engagement.

Scheduler

How many times has cancelled or changed appointments negatively impacted your practice’s efficiency? Having an integrated scheduler in your GI EHR can eliminate double documentation, reduce scheduling errors, keeps records of all changes, and even provide operational reports!

Reporting

Having data is fantastic – having easy access to clear reports that allow for data-driven decisions in real time is even better. A gastro EHR with canned reports that can be run with a click of a button renders your clinical data much more useful and accessible!

Infection Prevention

Scope tracking modules can not only prevent a defective or unsanitary scope from being used, but it can also track the entire flow of the scope right down to the detergent used to sanitize, the technician who cleaned the scope, the physicians who used the scope, and timestamps for usage. Preventing one infection makes an electronic solution worth the investment!

E-Prescribing

Directly sending accurate prescriptions to the pharmacist not only prevents fill errors, but automatically finds drug-drug interactions, reduces wait times for the patients, tracks all the prescriptions the patient has filled, allows you to send notes to the pharmacist, and can provide directions in the patient’s first language.

Patient Portal

Patient engagement starts in your office, but it certainly does not end there! Equipping your patient with the ability to access educational information that you provide, reach your office via email, and see their records electronically not only puts your patient at ease but also reduces the amount of follow-up calls your office may need to do while still engaging the patient. They can even access the images from their procedures to share with other providers or family, such as ultrasound results.
