Prohealth Care Associates Invests 4.4m Dollars To Transform Technology For Patient Care
Additionally, ProHEALTH selected GE Healthcare's RIS and Billing IT solutions, Centricity Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Services and GE DISCOVERYâ PET/CT. These investments, along with prior equipment acquisitions, have streamlined operations, improved care and consolidated technology under one holistic portfolio of GE Healthcare solutions.
"GE provided us the most complete option to further modernize our billing, records and imaging functions," said David Cooper, M.D., Managing Partner, ProHEALTH Care Associates, LLP. "Our mission is to provide our patients the best, most advanced care possible, as we roll out these new technologies over the coming year, we take another step in doing just that."
ProHEALTH's purchase began as a search to update their existing billing functionality. Building upon ProHEALTH's existing GE Healthcare solutions, the company saw the value of implementing Centricity Group Management, EMR and RIS functions to better care for patients across their various locations and specialties.
The advanced clinical content embedded in Centricity EMR will help provide ProHEALTH's physicians with nationally accepted, evidence-based alerts at the point of care, which helps support patient care decisions and can help them reduce medical errors. In addition, Centricity's EDI services, a web-based claims management solution, will assist the company in managing claims with a proactive monitoring service with automated and customized task management. The Discovery PET/CT system will provide clinician access to one of the most advanced diagnostic devices available, ensuring faster, more accurate information to aid ProHEALTH's physicians in making treatment decisions.
"A full suite of GE's advanced technology puts ProHEALTH on the cutting edge of patient care," said Jim Corrigan, General Manager of GE Healthcare's Clinical Business Solutions " Additionally, our products will help ProHEALTH's meet the challenges of cost and quality care by leveraging the best technology and software solutions available."
