Cloud technology has revolutionized the healthcare industry by introducing internet based solutions that help doctors simplify their clinical, administrative and financial operations. It has gained immense popularity due to the countless benefits offered to physicians as well as patients. With the help of Cloud EMR technology, physicians can now practice without boundaries – making distance insignificant. To further foster this phenomenon, there has been a lot of research taking place in this domain. According to recent studies, the market of cloud-based applications has crossed the $100 billion mark and is still showing an upward trend.
The major reason behind these staggering figures is the healthcare reforms in the US and the adoption of electronic medical records technology. Such Cloud EMR solutions are offered to address the administrative, financial, and clinical issues of physicians, and to help them provide better healthcare to patients. Just like any other industry, healthcare is rapidly evolving and physicians want everything to be done in too little time. Therefore, the idea of remote hosting was introduced to ensure that nothing stops physicians from reaching their patients. Cloud EMR technology has helped physicians in storing, retrieving, and transferring information securely from anywhere, at any time.
“Cloud EMR has taken away the worries from my practice by providing me with the right tools for efficiently managing clinical, administrative, and financial operations. In addition, it provides better patient engagement through instant connectivity that helps in delivering quality healthcare”, says an Ohio-based physician.
Market Trends to Watch for Health Systems and Their Specialty Pharmacies
The future looks bright for the integrated specialty pharmacy model – for health systems, providers, and most importantly, for patients.
Implementation of Electronic Medical Records helps in reducing the overall costs, accelerates the revenue cycle and decreases the risk of human errors and fatalities. It also improves the quality of the services provided, improves collaboration between the physicians, and ensures compliance with industry standards, and more importantly, it takes productivity to the optimum level.
At last, after so much research and development in Cloud EMR technology, EMR vendors are providing easy to use solutions which are affordable, adaptable and accessible. Moreover, renowned vendors are offering specialty EMRs that are customized according to the distinctive needs of a particular specialist.
