Order Entry Completes the EMR Software Loop

Closing the EMR Software Loop!

Practice Partner’s

Order Entry is a computerized physician order entry module for Patient Records.  Order Entry can be used to electronically enter, review, and report on laboratory, radiology, consults, special studies, pathology, and other diagnostic tests.

EMR Software can use Order Entry to reduce data entry errors by replacing paper-based systems for writing diagnostic and treatment orders for patients.  The EHR can utilize Order Entry to provide significant information at the time an order is initiated.  The information can include the  patients insurance plan, order-specific diagnosis codes, order-specific patient and processor instructions as well as facility requirements. Orders that require a pre-authorization will not be sent out until approved.

Cost information can be added to the orders.  This information is displayed before the order is completed and can be printed and analyzed by using the EMR Software Reports.  Each order, whether stat or routine, can be analyzed and tracked to make sure the results are received when expected.  The progress of every test is tracked within each patient chart, making “meaningful use” an appropriate function of this EMR module. 

Qualified EMR Software providers have the skill, knowledge, and experience to help your practice with your EMR software needs. Using Order Entry in conjunction with Practice Partner, we will help you achieve the new-age mantra “meaningful use.”
