Electronic Medical Records Benefits
Save Time and Increase Revenue Improve Nursing Home Documentation Accurate Medical Billing and Coding Prevent Medication Errors Electronic Drug Regimen Meet HIPAA Compliant Regulations Synchronize Multi-User Clinicians Data
Save Time and Increase
Revenue
The average provider spends between 50-70% of their time documenting. Detailed notes on average can take 5-7 minutes per patient. With PAR 3 average note times are reduced to 2-4 minutes for complete documentation allowing providers to double the number of patient notes in the same amount of time. PAR 3 not only saves time but will allow providers to bill more accurately.
Improve Nursing Home Documentation with EMR Software
Substandard nursing
home documentation causes preventable medical hazard with fatal
medication errors. EMR software creates electronic medical records to
limit liability exposure.
Up to 10% facility
orders and 15% of the pharmacy prescriptions are illegible resulting in
up to 150 million clarification calls to pharmacists and prescribers.
Deciphering poor chart notations is a time consuming process costing healthcare
billions of dollars a year in
- Wasted staff time
- Misinterpretations of resident
chart notation data
- Inefficient process with medication
delays
- Wrongful death/injury and
increased legal liability
As nursing home documentation moves toward better alternatives transcription becomes cost prohibitive and logistically cumbersome. Pre-printed check-off forms are often un-interpretable with their outputs increasingly challenging by reimbursement payors.
The
EMR Software Solution
PAR 3 EMR software offers the compelling electronic solution to eliminate handwriting problems by quickly creating professional electronic medical records at the bedside. PAR 3 seamlessly integrates into the clinician workflow by integrating pharmacy and facility patient data into one efficient view. This cooperative collaboration enlists ongoing clinician participation in the medication use process while improving the accuracy of resident charting, reducing clinical paperwork and facilitates communication with interdisciplinary team members. Output notes are stored electronically, printed or e-routed to selected destinations. Use HIPAA compliant PAR 3 EMR software to improve your nursing home documentation. Electronic medical records raise resident safety and save precious staff time. Better documentation, better care!
Medical Billing and Coding errors
Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) coding is used in Medicare claims to determine provider reimbursement for medical encounters. While subject to interpretation, medical coding is receiving increased attention from government auditors. Improper medical billing and coding may result in charges of Medicare fraud or abuse.
Accurate Medical CodingPAR
3 EMR uses consistent
guidelines to reliably calculate documentation-based E/M and CPT codes.
Precise medical coding
avoids unintended up coding or down coding. Our EMR software improves
medical billing to increase your practice revenue, profitability and ROI,
by the book.

Nursing home EMR software prevents medication errors
Medication errors in nursing homes are underestimated and cause 98,000 healthcare deaths each year. Nursing home EMR software prevents medication errors occurring when clinicians adjust medications without a current medication list or based on incomplete, outdated or inaccurate patient information. One of the most important physician roles in nursing homes is that of monitoring for medication errors with drug interactions between diseases, symptoms and other drugs.
Residents take an average eight medications per month and despite excellent care provided to them, there is an estimated one adverse drug event per patient per day. One avoidable adverse drug related event is estimated to occur per resident per day at an annual healthcare cost of billions. Treating avoidable events retroactively cost billions of healthcare dollars annually. Our innovative PAR 3 nursing home EMR software uses electronic drug regimen review to reduce medication errors and improve resident care.
Nursing Home EMR software Improves Resident Safety The Institute for Safe Medication Practices advocates EMR use to computerize the medication process. Reduce nurse and clinician time verifying information for unusual drug doses (e.g., narcotics, insulin). PAR 3 EMR software checks for potentially harmful medication errors in nursing homes and alerts staff to:
- allergic reactions
- drug-drug side effects
- drug-diagnosis side effects (e.g., NSAIDS-renal)
- resident-specific alerts to interactions (e.g., anticoagulants-antibiotics)
PAR 3 nursing home EMR software reduces medication errors and legal liability by enlisting ongoing clinician participation in the medication use process at the point of care.
Electronic Drug Regimen
Electronic Drug Regimen Review with PAR 3 EMR software using the drug interaction checker minimizes medication errors in nursing homes and raises the level of patient safety while lowering facility liability. Drug interaction checking scans the medication profile for clinically significant potential medication errors. PAR 3 EMR software allows a friendly method of medication reconciliation to compare what medications the patient took prior to facility admission with those ordered by the facility to reduce medication errors by avoiding duplications, conflicts and omissions. The PAR 3 electronic drug regimen review process increases clinician participation in an ongoing daily version of Drug Regimen Review while improving facility documentation to exceed regulatory requirements.
HIPAA compliant PAR 3 EMR software is a programmed priority. The Mobile Physician Technologies electronic medical record exceeds the HIPAA goals of keeping Personal Health Information (PHI) private with the simplification and consolidation of data and transmission standards. The PAR 3 Electronic Medical Record has an unblemished track record regarding HIPAA compliance with inclusion of the following features:
- Application login requiring
an authorized username/password combination.
- Role-based security with EMR
feature privileges granted by the system administrator.
- Application timeout automatically
triggered by lack of computer activity.
Long Term Care Facilities or Clinician Networks
The PAR 3 Enterprise Solution is designed for multi-user networks valuing the benefits of database centralization with improved access, communication, data standardization and control. From two-clinician practice groups, to single facility locations with multiple workstations, to larger corporate chains with multiple facilities, PAR 3 Enterprise offers a scalable, networked, web hosted client/server solution. Hosted synchronization and electronic document management capabilities are done by remote servers linking clinicians and LTC vendors. PAR 3
Synchronize multi-user networks
Synchronize your multi-user clinicians with the
scalable PAR 3 electronic
medical record. LTC resident care is typically met by hiring Physician
Extenders, Medical Assistants and office staff. This complex work is often
done over the phone and with inadequate information. Capturing and sharing
your resident database with a scalable EMR creates efficiencies in operational
workflow. Capture and synchronize resident data from multiple
remote sources into our HIPAA compliant system and electronically redistributes
the data to your entire practice. PAR 3
