Orthopedics is truly unique in its requirements for electronic health records, since orthopedics today can also encompass elements of sports medicine, physical medicine, physical therapy, and a variety of orthopedic surgeries.

An EHR for Orthopedics must be fully comprehensive, powerful, and dynamically able to connect the various essentials of Orthopedics. It must also be easy to use to ensure optimal productivity and workflow throughout the practice.

The MedicsDocAssistant EHR for Orthopedics handles:

• Cases: Clearly delineates a patient’s different cases, which is typically an area of concern for the Orthopedics practice (e.g., the patient’s work injury is clearly separated from that patient’s skiing accident).
• Orthopedic-Specific needs such as:
• Castings
• Range of Motion
• Surgeries and post-op follow ups
• Physical Therapy treatments
• Knee, hip, shoulder, extremities, spine, skull, torso, muscle injuries
• Multiple Complaints: Numerous Orthopedic-specific encounters, with the ability to handle secondary complaints…a highly important need for Orthopedics.
• Digital Imaging: The ability to store the patient’s images directly as part of their MedicsDocAssistant record for easy viewing and retrieval. Images can be notated on through the system’s built-in handwriting capability. Imaging is available with our MedicsPACS, or with an interface to your existing PACS; ADS has performed interfaces to virtually all major PACS systems.
• Voice Recognition: is available for on-the-fly dictating of patient notes directly into the patient’s record, eliminating the need for expensive and time-consuming transcription.
• Integration with office equipment: MedicsDocAssistant will integrate seamlessly with a variety of office equipment for detailed tracking of the patient’s condition directly into their EHR record.

As an option, MedicsPortal is available for Orthopedics practices interested in connecting themselves with their patients, and vice versa. MedicsPortal gives patients the ability to do much of their own work themselves, 24x7x365 using secure internet connectivity.
