Empower Systems ONC Certified Complete EHR (Inpatient + Ambulatory) Deployed at Metro South Medical Center

A long-standing professional partnership between Empower Systems of Chicago, IL and Metro South Medical Center of Blue Island, IL moved into a new phase with the full deployment of the Empower Systems ONC Certified Complete Electronic Health Record to the inpatient units and ambulatory offices.

Chicago, IL, December 25, 2010 --(PR.com)-- This strategic upgrade will reportedly enable Metro South to capitalize on substantial ARRA/HITECH stimulus incentives as beginning in 2011. While many U.S. hospitals are still in the process of selecting and/or attempting to implement an ONC Certified complete EHR solution, Metro South Medical Center has already completed the process.

Empower Systems President/Co-Founder, Seth Guterman, MD commented that since "Metro South has both the Empower Inpatient and Ambulatory ONC certified software live, this institution will be one of the first hospitals and physician offices in the United States to 'receive checks' and the incentive money from the $20 Billion Obama IT Healthcare program."

Serving its community since 1905, MSMC, a 410-bed facility, is one of a growing number of U.S. hospitals to embrace technology in order to deliver more expedient patient care. As a regional innovator, MSMC continues to demonstrate successful strategies that other Midwest hospitals could follow suit. Empower Systems is reportedly pleased with its expanding partnership and looks forward to helping Metro South Medical Center to further pursue its commitment to both its patients and the community at large. MSMC’s choice to be proactive with Obama administration healthcare IT incentives apparently will help them maintain a strategic position among the innovative, technology-embracing facilities in Illinois, the Midwest, and the US.

As the healthcare landscape is increasingly shaped by the federal government’s ambitious initiatives and industry reform, Empower Systems seeks to leverage visionary technology and assist its clients in taking full advantage of economic stimulus incentives.
