MedInformatix, an innovator in enterprise practice management and electronic health records, and an established technology brand known for providing real-time real-impact data and workflow EHR solutions to the healthcare industry, has announced expanded features and functionality to its award-winning Radiology Information System, Version 7.6.

“This is one of the most comprehensive revisions we have made to-date,” said Chris Bruns, Head of Product Development at MedInformatix. “We’ve added more than 50 new features, including EHR usability improvements, scheduling upgrades and new capabilities designed to address ICD-10 contingency planning, to make the MedInformatix RIS more powerful than ever before.”

The impetus for many of the new features came from the MedInformatix client base, who have direct access to MedInformatix product and technology teams through active client advisory boards and MICentral, the company’s thriving online community that brings clients together to share input and experiences using their respective practice’s EHR. Bruns, who also directs the advisory board initiative, says this is an added benefit to being a MedInformatix customer. “When and where we can make tweaks to our RIS to enhance the workflow of our clients – we are all about it.”

Some of the highlights of the newly revised MedInformatix RIS V7.6 include:
– scheduling improvements that give practices the ability to easily modify or move appointments without rescheduling the entry. A new Appointment History button chronicles previous scheduling activity
– ability to conduct ICD-10 searches by billable or all 90,000+ classification codes, as well as by laterality and encounter terms
– expanded EHR decision support tools, including the ability to resize Decision Trees, the Document Repository and flexibility to use expanded HTML clipboard functionality
– an integrated PDF viewer that eliminates the unpredictability of third party PDF viewers.

Adds Pat McGonigle, President of MedInformatix, “This revision is a natural progression of our commitment to customer collaboration and continuous product innovation. The goal of MedInformatix is to deliver tomorrow’s EHR technology to our clients today. This revision helps us deliver on that proposition.”
