The Retina Group of Washington Selects SRS Hybrid EMR for its 20 Highly-Specialized Ophthalmologists

Hybrid EMR Meets Productivity Needs of High-Volume Specialty Practice

MONTVALE, NJ - June 2, 2010 - SRS, the leader in high-performance hybrid EMRs, today announced that The Retina Group of Washington has selected the SRS hybrid EMR for their 20 high-performance specialists. The Retina Group is the largest practice dedicated to treating retinal, vitreal, and macular diseases in the metropolitan Washington area.

"The SRS hybrid EMR is easy to learn and use—and supports the complex workflows of our busy subspecialists," says Richard A. Garfinkel, M.D., The Retina Group of Washington. "The intuitive design of SRS fits our practice style and appeals to our physicians because it enables us to more efficiently provide the highest quality patient care—an advantage we noticed immediately."

"We're a high-volume, fast-paced specialty group. SRS fit our workflow and will maximize the productivity of each physician in our practice," says Michael J. Fagnilli, Administrator, The Retina Group. "Slowing our physicians down with cumbersome data entry was not an acceptable option. We're confident the hybrid EMR was the right choice for us."

SRS was designed with direct input by its high-performance physicians to provide them with a system that fits their needs, helps them to work more efficiently, and enables them to achieve a rapid return on their investment. SRS, which has built the largest national network of high-performance practices that successfully use an EMR, attributes its unmatched adoption rate to ease of use, fast implementation, and an accelerated timeframe for training physicians and office staff.

"The Retina Group will see far greater returns with SRS than they would if their physicians attempted to use a traditional EMR," says Evan Steele, CEO of SRSsoft. "Unlike traditional EMR products that are geared towards primary-care physicians, SRS focuses on the needs of high-performance specialists like the providers at The Retina Group. We're excited to have them join our growing national network of 5,000 providers."
