Medexsoft delivers Secure Healthcare Information Exchange

FRESNO, CA, February 12, 2010– Medexsoft announced the release of its latest medical software application, LinkEMR. The application has secure data exchange capabilities, is built on an electronic health record framework, and offers a variety of functions that not only will be beneficial to physicians, but to patients as well.

In our present healthcare system, the primary care providers maintain a centralized system of paper based medical records and coordinate care with other healthcare entities such as specialists and hospitals. Presently, this process is time consuming and can cost thousands of dollars to providers in terms of staff time and other expenditures involved in the process. Additionally, the patients spend countless hours answering the same questions and filling the same paperwork every time a referral is made to another provider.

"LinkEMR enables healthcare entities to share patient’s clinical and administrative data while maintaining security and privacy" said Ranjeet Randhawa, CEO of Medexsoft. "This enables healthcare providers to have a complete and comprehensive view of patients' relevant medical records at the point of care. Additionally, the patient’s demographics and insurance information which is captured by the primary care provider can be securely transferred to authorized physicians, thus eliminating the need for the patients to fill the same forms again and again."

It is a win-win situation for the patients as well as the providers. The patients save time and the physicians eliminate administrative expenses usually associated with mailing and faxing reports while instantaneously getting access to the referral reports. Ranjeet Randhawa who is also a Certified HIPAA Professional stated, “Maintaining the technical safeguards set by HIPAA for patient data in transit could be quite challenging to implement and incorporating this in a fully-fledged electronic health records application which is affordable is where I think we have succeeded.”

One of the neatest features of LinkEMR is its ability to allow physicians to form their own network of specialists and exchange patient information fast, conveniently and most important, confidentially”, Robert Taylor, MD, Vice President for Medexsoft added.
