The HIPAA Privacy Rule governs the extent to which providers must safeguard a patient's privacy. A major tenet of those regulations is that only individuals who absolutely need access to a particular client's record should have it.

Other EHR software programs can only limit access based on a staff member's overall role in the agency. For example, an administrator might be… READ MORE Digital Signature Capture

You can select what links to send in two ways:… READ MORE Electronic Prescribing of Controlled Substances (EPCS)

The Meaningful Use program puts a strong emphasis on the ability to exchange information from one EHR system to another.

Implementing ClinicTracker will protect your agency against costly penalties. While compliance ultimately requires… READ MORE Report Builder

Enhance Your Agency's Reporting Ability Although ClinicTracker boasts hundreds of pre-defined reports, at times you'll want to design one to your exact specifications.
