Orthopaedic Teaching Hospital Chooses MD Logic World Wide EMR

19 August 2007

The Orthopaedic Department at Methodist Hospital in Houston Texas has selected the MD Logic World Wide EMR™ for their EMR solution in taking the Orthopaedic Department paperless. The Orthopaedic Department at Methodist Hospital had originally implemented MD Logic as their solution to document patient care. Touch screens were installed in the exam rooms to enable both the doctors and their staff the ability to document care "real-time". This was the first step in taking the department paperless.

David Lintner, M.D., Chief of Sports Medicine at the Methodist Hospital in Houston, recently saw the most current release of the MD Logic World Wide EMR™ at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons meeting in San Diego. After seeing the MD Logic World Wide EMR™, Dr. Lintner knew he wanted to take his department to the next level and go paperless. The biggest change had already been accomplished in being able to document care "real-time" in the exam room. Adding the ability to scan documents, electronically review reports and send messages to staff members would give their department immediate access to patient records 24 hours a day. "Being a premier Orthopaedic clinic, speed is essential in keeping up with our patient load. We choose MD Logic knowing it was the fastest EMR available in heath care."
