New User Experience and Products Receiving High Praise from
Post-Acute Caregivers
American HealthTech (AHT), a wholly owned subsidiary of CPSI
(NASDAQ: CPSI) and a leading provider of electronic health records
(EHR) for the post-acute and senior living markets, is pleased to
announce the general availability of their new user experience and
two new licensable products that are designed around key clinical
workflow.
With its well-organized and intuitive layout, the latest release
of the AHT EHR is easy to learn and guides caregivers through
patient care tasks in a meaningful way. In commenting on the
announcement, Chris Read, RN, Nursing Informatics Specialist,
Cedars Nursing Care Center, said, “The latest release of the AHT
EHR has a faster, more responsive and intuitive design. Our
caregivers can quickly access only the patient information they
need, saving us valuable time and clicks.”
AHT also announced the release of two new licensable products –
the AHT Communication Center and e-Referral, which are designed to
improve caregiver communications and patient care transitions. The
new AHT Communication Center provides a caregiver security when
using the HIPAA-compliant texting feature. Along with integrated
chatting, emailing and faxing, this new product makes communicating
easier and frees up more time to be spent with patients.
Jerry Haynes, Director of Nursing, Jefferson Park at Dandridge,
said, “The AHT Communication Center is solving the missing
communication link we had in our facility. We have peace of mind
knowing our communications are secure, efficient and
effective.”
In addition, AHT e-Referral allows post-acute facilities to
electronically receive discrete information within the AHT EHR from
an incoming Consolidated Clinical Document Architecture (CCDA),
allowing for a faster and more comprehensive admission process.
Boyd Douglas, president and chief executive officer of CPSI,
stated, “At American HealthTech, our clients are more than just a
number to us. We listen to them and invest in their ideas. The
process by which we have developed and tested our new user
interface and products to ensure they improve clinical workflows
illustrates our commitment to meeting our clients’ expectations.
Our continued investment in product innovation is centered around
helping to make the job easier for post-acute caregivers’ and
giving them more time to deliver quality patient care.”
