Case Study: Psychiatry and Behavioral Health achieves 1.5-hour daily time savings and improved patient engagement with WRS Health

Psychiatry Practice Minds its Business with New EMR

Dr. Carlos Perez-Cortes, a solo psychiatrist in Humacao, Puerto Rico, needed an EHR that was simple, efficient and user-friendly after trying multiple cumbersome systems that consumed clinical time and burdened staff with scheduling and paperwork. His priority was spending more time on patient care and improving patient communications and intake workflows without adding IT overhead.

WRS Health delivered a psychiatry-specific, cloud-based EHR/PM with pre-configured templates, integrated scheduling, automated reminders, a patient portal and hands-on training and support. The practice achieved 100% user adoption, saved about 1.5 hours per day (allowing 8–10 additional patients per month), reduced waiting-room paperwork, improved patient satisfaction and avoided server and IT costs.
