In order to demonstrate patient engagement to satisfy MU Stage 2 requirements, medical practices need to implement a patient engagement strategy.

When considering an integrated PM and EMR system make sure that it comes with a full suite of patient engagement and social media tools that are intuitive, reliable and secure. The following are some design considerations to keep in mind when looking at EHRs with integrated patient portals.

If you are thinking of switching EMR systems, you are not alone. According to an April 2014 Buyers Report by review site Software Advice (see the WRS Health profile here), 40% of new EMR purchases are by buyers replacing their current systems.

WRS Health's cloud-based solutions eliminate the start-up expenses associated with switching your Health IT Platform, regardless of the number of locations, providers or specialties your large practice has.
