As ED leadership knows all too well, if an Electronic Health Record slows down documentation of patient care either at the bedside or at the end of a shift, both physicians and nurses will logically request technology alternatives. Empower ED™ users are proficient on Day One and hone their skills faster than with competing products.
Many EHR solutions provide robust functionality, but often don't allow for comprehensive documentation of the full continuum of care within the ED. Empower ED™ requires comprehensive documentation on every patient chart, every time. This supports expert patient care and reduces liability.
Despite the best intentions, non-clinical programmers simply cannot replicate the subtle workflow needs of an ED clinicians. Empower ED™ was developed and continues to be led by practicing Board Certified physicians and registered nurses. This translates to the most user-friendly, intuitive EHR available to ED users today.
The combination of 2015 Edition ONC Certification with 100% User Acceptance on Day one translates to fully comprehensive documentation and a more efficient Emergency Department. ROI is attained by complete, accurate billing, delivery of efficient patient care documentation, and successful MU attestation.
Empower Inpatient + Ambulatory™ is built on an open systems architecture as a philosophical basis for the future of Healthcare IT. SQL is an incredibly robust, stable database that can store almost unlimited information. Proprietary systems, on the other hand, are not as stable, are more difficult and expensive to maintain, and require more downtime, unlike Empower, which requires almost no downtime.
Empower uses as few hospital resources as possible, requiring only 20 to 40 hours of work for all interfaces. Empower ED™ can integrate with any Core HIS system for use with ADT, CPOE, Results, Pharmacy, Medication Reconciliation, Vitals, Charge Capture, Transcription, and Final Chart Export.
Empower ED™ works with virtually any Windows-based hardware, from desktops to wireless laptops to tablet PCs/iPads. Hardware selected by a hospital is a matter of user preference, depending on whether users prefer to point & click, tab, scroll, or employ touch screens.
Non-redundant, seamless transfer of information between the ED, hospital inpatient units, physician offices, and hospital networks.
Empower ED™ requires very minimal upkeep by the IT department, meaning your staff can be involved as much or as little as they want.
The Empower Partnership delivers unprecedented IT & Clinical Support 24/7/365 to ensure that we deliver on the promise of improved quality of care and patient satisfaction, reduced length of stay, and a truly integrated EHR. Empower Inpatient + Ambulatory™ also provides a seamless rollout of enhancements as the result of ongoing product development to constantly improve the product suite.
