New Version Incorporates New Features, Further Solidifying Company’s Leadership PositionTORONTO, CANADA – November 28, 2008 – P & P Data Systems (www.p-pdata.com), a leading developer of paperless solutions for the medical industry, today released version 7.4.5 of its Clinic Information System (CIS) at the Family Medicine 2008 Forum hosted by the Sheraton Hotel, Toronto (fmf.cfpc.ca)
CIS is a comprehensive Clinic Management System that offers features and flexibility unavailable in any other CMS. From single doctor practices to large clinics with hundreds of users, P & P’s CIS is a proven solution, guaranteed to enhance any medical practice. CIS 7.4.5 includes a flexible and powerful scheduler, patient demographics management with the option of automated health card validation and a billing suite capable of electronic data transfer. Users requiring more features can customize the package with advanced immunization and compliance, prescription writing capabilities, truly paperless electronic medical records (EMR), and a lab connection module. For powerful and flexible document management facilities, P & P’s PaperClip module is also available.
“This release really caps off another excellent year for the company,” said Moshe Pinhas, President, P & P Data Systems. “We have taken our most consultative approach ever in the product’s features and functionality. In the summer, we held a successful user group and really modelled many of the features of our new product based solely on user feedback.
Optional add-ons to the already robust platform include the following modules:
- Biometric Authorization: Before logging in or entering sensitive data, the clinician runs their finger through the biometric scanner and is easily identified.
- Smart Scan: Smart Scan allows clinicians to attach documents electronically to their patient’s medical records with minimal user interaction.
- Communications Management: Once a specific task has been performed, the system flags it appropriately and the task is closed. Similarly, if a communication is running late or not done, the system alerts the user for action on the task.
- Kiosk: On arrival at a clinician’s office, the patient simply swipes their health card through the kiosk’s card reader. Once done, the system immediately notifies the appropriate clinician and the patient is then promptly seen. The kiosk can even contact the Ministry of Health and confirm health card validity.
- Chronic Disease Manager: Since no two patients are alike, each dashboard is infinitely customizable based not only on parameters clinicians select but as importantly, those that relate specifically to that patient.
- Preventative Medicine: No more manual processes and misplaced sticky notes - all costly options. This feature ensures patients never miss a maintenance appointment again.
“The new CIS 7.4.5 is intuitive with a robust software backbone and durable hardware complement. CIS 7.4.5 is certified under strict OntarioMD specification 2.0 guidelines and built from the ground up using extensive research put forward by the people that use our software every day,” added Pinhas.
