LIVE SUPPORTSpineCare Consultants (www.spinecare1.com) is a medical practice dedicated to helping patients with pain that originates in their neck and spine. The healthcare providers at SpineCare will identify the source of the patient’s pain and provide a treatment plan tailored for the specific needs of each patient.
Kathleen Frey, Practice Administrator for SpineCare stated “the practice goal is to identify the exact source of the patient’s pain, which generally involves problems with joints, discs or nerves. Our treatment involves minimally invasive spinal procedures performed on an outpatient basis. Our physicians together have more than 30 years of experience of treating patients with these procedures. Since 2000, we have treated thousands of patients, primarily from Texas and Louisiana.
“Prior to making the decision to go paperless with MD Logic our clinic implemented flat panel touch screens in the examination rooms in 2005. This allowed our clinic to eliminate cumbersome dictation and use the MD Logic software to document care “real time” in the exam rooms. With the expansion of our clinic and the growing number of paper charts it was time to take the next step and go paperless. We looked at multiple EMR systems including the EMR offered by our billing system “GE Centricity” but found all these EMR systems to be slow and cumbersome. With the MD Logic World Wide EMR™ the transition to paperless was seamless.”
One of the founding Partners of SpineCare Consultants Michael McCann, M.D. took the lead role back in 2005 when the clinic decided to start documenting care “real time” in the exam rooms using MD Logic. Dr. McCann has been always been on the cutting edge of medicine and technology. Dr. McCann received his medical training at Southwestern Medical School in Dallas. His Residency and Fellowship training were completed at Baylor College of Medicine. He is board certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology, with a subspecialty certification in Pain Management, and is board certified by the American Board of Pain Medicine. Dr. McCann established the fellowship training program in Pain Management at Baylor College of Medicine, training many physicians around the country in spinal diagnostic and therapeutic techniques.
As an early adopter of technology and an innovator in the field of Pain Management Dr. McCann was asked about the clinics decision to take the next step and go paperless. Dr. McCann stated “I have found the MD Logic World Wide EMR™ is simple enough for ancillary personnel to document information both efficiently & accurately. Adopting this technology in the exam rooms enables our physicians and staff to focus 100% of our time providing patient care. Gone are the days of having to search for documents in paper charts. The providers in our clinic now have 24/7 access to medical records to aid the physicians in diagnosing and treating our patients.”
Kathleen Frey also stated that “Our physicians and looking forward to implementing the MD Logic Patient Kiosk software to further streamline and capture our patient’s medical information. I would recommend the MD Logic World Wide EMR™ to any busy practice looking to streamline their clinic. It is imperative to implement technology that will not slow the doctors down and provide immediate access to the entire patients medical record.”
