Medical Hills Internal Medicine and Pediatrics Selects the SRS Hybrid EMR for Its 14 Providers Based on Patient Care and Cost Benefits

High-Volume Physicians Experience Benefits First-Hand with No-Cost Pilot Program

MONTVALE, NJ — October 12, 2010 — SRS, the leader in productivity-enhancing EMR technology and services for high-performance practices, today announced that Medical Hills Internal Medicine and Pediatrics has selected the SRS Hybrid EMR for its 14 providers. Located in Bloomington, IL, Medical Hills provides preventive care and treatment for a wide range of health conditions.

"We implemented the SRS hybrid EMR without reducing our patient volume at all, even during the pilot program, because it was so easy to learn. We began to see significant benefits immediately," says William Ray, M.D., Medical Hills Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. "With SRS, we take better care of our patients—our ability to communicate both internally and with patients is enhanced, and we therefore respond to patient requests more rapidly and more effectively. Our physicians and staff particularly appreciate the value of ePrescribing. Not only does SRS make our entire prescription-writing process quicker and more efficient, but it allows us to provide better service to our patients. Of course, the Medicare bonus will be a welcome addition to our bottom line."

"After investigating traditional EMR options for many years, it was clear that our physicians would never accept the productivity impact of point-and-click data entry," says James McNeely, Administrator, Medical Hills Internal Medicine and Pediatrics. "Qualifying for the SRS No-Cost Pilot Program gave us the opportunity to witness the patient care and office productivity benefits and to build confidence in our ability to transition to an all digital office."

"From day one, the focus of the SRS hybrid EMR has been to boost the productivity of physicians and their staff," says Evan Steele, CEO of SRSsoft. "The No-Cost Pilot Program allowed Medical Hills Internal Medicine and Pediatrics to use SRS for a trial period and see for themselves that the hybrid EMR was right for its busy physicians. We are confident that Medical Hills will see a continued increase in productivity while continuing to slash costs practice-wide."
