Misys MyWay™ and Misys EMR®: What’s Right for You (And the Practices Critical to Your Organization)?
The benefits of EMR are obvious:
- Empower physicians to access vital patient data at the point of care
- Streamline communication between physicians, staff and all necessary constituencies
- Eliminate transcription costs
- Eliminate physical storage space and related costs
- Order labs and e-prescribe with ease
- Build practice-wide and hospital-wide efficiencies
- And with the Connected Healthcare Community, communicate seamlessly between hospital and practice
Misys offers two solutions, Misys EMR and Misys MyWay, to provide a targeted solution for hospitals and practices of every size, specialization and requirement. As the provider of clinical ambulatory solutions, the hospital removes a key barrier of physician adoption: fear of technology challenges and cost. By partnering with Misys, and taking advantage of the Stark relaxation provisions, the hospital positions itself to host and manage high-end technology at competitive rates that appeal to physicians.
The SaaS Advantage
Since Misys offers our solutions through a Software as a Service model (SaaS), physicians have the option of not installing any hardware on-premise (on-premise installation is available if desired). The result is less complexity, a lower price point for entry, a lower total cost of ownership and reduced infrastructure overall. Yet hospitals and practices still gain the all of the professional service and support they need.
Interoperability
Through the power of interoperability, practice systems will communicate seamlessly with hospitals, pharmacies, laboratories and all the other members of their healthcare community, making the most efficient and best possible care a reality.
To determine what technology is right for you, examine the capabilities of each offering and validate the benefits in relation to the unique requirements of the practices that you work with every day.
Misys EMR
Used by thousands of practices across the U.S., Misys EMR is scalable to practices of any size and is tailored to practically any specialty through the creation of custom-designed templates. Misys EMR integrates seamlessly with practice management systems Misys Tiger® and Misys Vision®, and with the claims management system Misys Payerpath®. And Misys EMR connects with laboratories, pharmacies, imaging systems including Radiology Information Systems (RIS), Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS), medical devices, diagnostic instruments and other document repositories.
Misys MyWay
Misys MyWay is a platform that integrates EMR, practice management, and claims management into one package. The system is designed for practices of 1-10 physicians targeting the primary care specialties of General/Family Medicine and Internal Medicine. This focus eliminates the need for traditional EMR templates. Instead, Misys MyWay delivers a dynamic learning engine where the application analyzes each user’s patterns and preferences, and adapts its navigation and interface to make workflow and charting faster and easier.
Misys MyWay is available as a hosted solution that enables a practice to eliminate the IT burden associated with purchasing, operating, and maintaining expensive infrastructure equipment. And Misys MyWay offers the same ability to communicate with the other systems necessary to facilitate efficiency and productivity.
Approximately 15% of surveyed physicians now use EMR and 25% said they planned on using one in the next year and a half*. The choice of approaches—whether monolithic or linked-community—directly affects whether physicians will embrace the new IT system or dig in their heels and pass on the opportunity.
