RELEASE
emsCharts Teams
With Emerisys to Offer Third-Party Chart Auditing (QA) Services
Patient data company first to
align with chart auditing service provider
Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania – June 25, 2009 – emsCharts, Inc. announced this week
that they have established a strategic partnership with Emerisys
Inc., the nation’s leader in providing comprehensive third-party
chart auditing (QA) services to EMS providers. This partnership
allows emsCharts to further enhance their pre-hospital data solution
for emergency medical services and makes them the first patient data
company in the nation to team up with a third-party chart auditing
service.
emsCharts, Inc.
helped to pioneer real-time and electronic data collection with
software products that use the Web to connect first responders with
hospitals and reporting agencies; thus expediting the entire process
and leaving more time to focus on patients’ needs. emsCharts, Inc.
also offers mobile, offline versions of their web product for use in
ambulances, helicopters, and on scene with patients.
Emerisys Inc. is the nation’s first chart auditing service to
provide unbiased and affordable quality assessment (QA) for
emergency medicine providers. Its comprehensive three-step review
process identifies medic deficiencies and tracks performance trends
that can be used to enhance education and reduce liability. By
integrating the auditing functionality of emsCharts with the
Emerisys system, EMS providers will have the most thorough and
unbiased assessment available.
“Quality Assurance
is an important step, not only in patient documentation, but in the
overall practice for an EMS agency,” stated Pete Goutmann, Vice
President of emsCharts, Inc. “Some agencies simply don’t have the
manpower to implement a QA process with a human touch. emsCharts
provides the technology, but for agencies that require a more
hands-on approach, the tandem Emerisys / emsCharts systems are what
they are looking for.” Goutmann continues, “Our hope with this
partnership is that agencies who seek this multifaceted solution
will now have access to both the technology and the hands-on
experience.”
"We are excited to
team up with emsCharts.” says Jeff Erdner, President of Emerisys
Inc. “In today’s litigious society, it is critical that in addition
to giving quality patient care, EMS providers must collect the
appropriate patient data and implement an effective QAQI program.
For this reason, I am confident our partnership with emsCharts will
provide a service that is unparalleled in the industry."
