By: Curas The Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) is a global organization whose mission is to “lead endeavors optimizing health engagement and care outcomes through information technology.” “Since we began working with Fremont Family Care in 2010, it quickly became clear that they were a practice that was committed to optimizing their use of eClinicalWorks to achieve better patient care and run their medical business in a more efficient manner,” said Num Pisutha-Arnond, Managing Partner at Curas. “They’ve ingrained this into their culture, where team members embrace the drive and desire to leverage their EMR for better outcomes. Curas is proud to be a part of the team helping to make this possible.” Curas worked closely with Fremont Family Care to identify and design workflows, and implement eClinicalWorks modules and custom reports to document compliance levels for various initiatives. Perhaps the most important component Curas created is the detail behind the measures which isn’t provided through reporting alone. Those measures included Depression Screening, Diabetes BP, Diabetes Blood Sugar, and Pneumovax. Through the technology and cultural change in care delivery, Fremont Family Care reports positive outcomes including lowered hospital readmissions of patients for pneumonia, improvement in delivery of preventive care to at-risk patients, increased number of diabetic patients who keep their HgbA1c under control. “Fremont Family Care’s initiatives and optimization of eClinicalWorks has enabled them to leverage the system in a way that brings to life all the things that are possible through electronic health records,” said Pisutha-Arnond. “Patients are experiencing it, the practice benefits, and all are engaged in providing enhanced care – all of which is the ultimate vision for EHR.” About Curas Curas is a St. Louis area based health information technology consulting company and one of the top resellers of the eClinicalWorks suite of products for the electronic medical office.
