SOAPware® Launches Integrated EMR/EHR and Practice Management Software; Technology Supports Optimized Delivery of Patient Care Services with an Affordable Price Tag

Fayetteville, AR, July 25, 2010 --(PR.com)-- SOAPware, Inc., a leading developer of Electronic Medical Records (EMR/EHR) software and solutions, announces a major update in its current offerings: SOAPware Clinical Suite (SCS), an integrated practice management system for medical billing. A privately-held provider of CCHIT Certified® EMR/EHR software, SOAPware provides its EMR/EHR solutions nationally and internationally to independent physician practices of all major specialties.

SCS offers a remarkably effective and efficient solution for ambulatory medical practices at an affordable price and with many options for customization. The suite combines a powerful package of the most important health information automation solutions: EMR/EHR software for documentation and analysis; electronic prescribing; formulary eligibility verification; a versatile scheduling system for managing patient appointments; and sophisticated, efficient claims processing, denial tracking and revenue management for the billing professional.

“As an integrated solution, our new Clinical Suite increases the quality of care, improves practice productivity, and facilitates adherence to meaningful use compliance guidelines,” states SOAPware founder and President, Dr. Randall Oates. “Once testing entities are established for EMR/EHR certification later this year, we intend to obtain the necessary ARRA/HHS Certification so that practices using SOAPware will have all the necessary technical capabilities to satisfy meaningful use. I can say with confidence that the tools provided by the latest version of our EMR/EHR will enable our clients to capture patient information discretely for reporting purposes, as required by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in order to qualify for the stimulus incentives.”

The SOAPware practice management project is lead by Product Manager Laura Oates. “From its inception, our practice management (PM) software has been designed with the needs of billing and front office users in mind,” says Mrs. Oates. “Our goal was to create PM software which would allow practices
to manage all patient billing and accounting seamlessly and efficiently. This could only be accomplished by fully integrating the PM system with the EMR/EHR, appointment system and charge capture. By taking advantage of the information flow, SOAPware CS generates quick and easy medical billing while ensuring a high degree of accuracy and traceability.”

SOAPware’s practice management system interfaces with one of the nation’s leading electronic clearinghouses for electronic claim submission and tracking. And a comprehensive set of reports presents all practice management information in an effective manner for analysis and tracking.

Greg Lose, Executive VP of Technology, is charged with guiding the technical side of the software’s design. “The SOAPware Development Team has delivered a compelling, feature-rich billing system along with significantly enhancing SOAPware's core clinical EMR/EHR system,” reports Lose. “By delivering Enterprise functionality, scalability and stability at a price that is affordable to smaller medical practices, the SCS delivers a ‘shot across the bow’ at other EMR/EHR/PM systems typically marketed with expensive price tags affordable only by large practices. And this release provides a rock-solid foundation for physicians who are serious about making meaningful use documentation a part of their patient care.”
