Busy podiatrist prepares his practice for the future with an integrated PM and EMR system

Ronald W. Alm, DPM is a solo podiatrist with offices in Lewiston and Moscow, Idaho, who was seeing about 25 patients a day and struggling with paper charts, slow data retrieval, and workflow bottlenecks. To go paperless, improve efficiency, and qualify for Meaningful Use incentives, he complemented his existing MicroMD practice management system by choosing MicroMD EMR from Henry Schein Medical Systems.

MicroMD implemented an integrated EMR that provided flexible charting, e-prescribing, meaningful use functionality, staff-entered patient data, and interoperability with portals, faxing and digital x‑rays. The MicroMD solution streamlined operations, increased patient satisfaction, eliminated paper charts for new patients, and delivered measurable impact including $18,000 in Meaningful Use incentive payments and a planned full conversion to electronic records within five years.
