LIVE SUPPORTMD Logic, Inc Receives ONC-ACB Certification by Drummond Group “PRESS RELEASE” (Friday May 30, 2014 / Atlanta, Georgia) -- MD Logic, the leading U.S. provider of High Performance Electronic Health Records Solutions has been tested and certified under the Drummond Group's Electronic Health Records Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Certification Body (ONC-ACB) program. This EHR software is compliant in accordance with the criteria adopted by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Thomas J. Bierster, Jr., CEO for MD Logic, stated ”our software development team invested the last 18 months along with thousands of hours in research and software development to reach our goal of ONC 2014 certification. This major upgrade in MD Logic software was designed to efficiently manage the ONC 2014 requirements while at the same time maximizing productivity for our customers. Our EHR software is trusted by thousands of users each day to streamline the workflow of their clinics.
“Prior to 2009 there were less than 100 companies selling Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems in the market. When the Federal Government decided to provide up to $44,000.00 per physician to help offset the purchase of EHR technology the number of companies that began selling EHR software soared to over 600 companies. ONC 2014 is a much more complex undertaking in regards to programming and technology and has thinned the herd of certified companies by more than 80%. That percentage represents a huge decrease in the total number of certified companies actively selling EHR systems in the market.
“With a fall out percentage of over 80%, physicians that invested in a non-certified EHR will be forced to purchase another system. We feel that MD Logic stands alone as the one EHR company that provides maximum speed and efficiency with our software solutions. We have been designing our software for touch screen technology since 1994 and touch screen technology has become the gold standard with entering data. We expect to sell more 2nd and 3rd time buyers in 2014 then first time buyers. The good news is that 2nd and 3rd time buyers know exactly what they don’t want and understand that speed and efficiency is essential in maximizing productivity.”
Drummond Group’s ONC-ACB certification program certifies that EHRs meet theONC 2014 criteria for either eligible provider or hospital technology. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology – a key component of the federal government’s push to improve clinical care delivery through the adoption and effective use of EHRs by U.S. healthcare providers. The MD Logic World Wide EHR v6.0, which met the requirements for Complete EHR Ambulatory, was officially certified on May 30, 2014.
“Leveraging information technology for healthcare initiatives provides the opportunity to deliver a high-level quality of care and efficiency which essentially benefits and enhances the overall patient experience,” says Rik Drummond, CEO of the Drummond Group Inc. “We have been testing software for more than a decade and will continue to provide our extensive experience testing and certifying complex systems for multiple industries, as well as ensuring interoperability and security remain key components in the growing healthcare industry.”
This Complete EHR Module is 2014 Edition compliant and has been certified by an ONC-ACB in accordance with the applicable certification criteria adopted by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This certification does not represent an endorsement by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
