Case Study: Valley Medical Family Practice achieves a $160,000 coding bonus and higher reimbursements with Praxis EMR

Valley Medical Family Practice - Customer Case Study

Praxis, a template-free electronic medical record (EMR) system, helped Dr. Steven McKenzie of Valley Medical Family Practice in Hemet, CA, meet his goals of going paperless, sharing information across the clinic, and maintaining high medical quality. He also wanted an EMR that would reduce errors and improve documentation and coding efficiency to support better reimbursement.

Praxis’s Concept Processing technology stores and recalls prior encounters so clinicians can adapt past treatment notes rather than follow rigid templates, letting the system learn and evolve with the physician. The result: faster, more accurate documentation, elimination of dictation costs, improved diagnostic and treatment ability, greater legal protection, and a significant revenue lift—Dr. McKenzie reported a $160,000 bonus for improved coding in the first half of 2010 and estimates substantially higher ROI for small practices.
