What is the Allscripts MyWay EMR & PM solution?

The Allscripts Electronic Medical Records, Practice Management, & Claims Management Solution was created for offices with 1-10 physicians looking for a complete solution that is simple, complete, and affordable. This complete solution enables a provider to streamline current processes while maintaining the existing work flow in the practice.

Simple – intuitive, easy to learn, and easy to use. Created to work the way you do. Allscripts MyWay offers unique features that match the way providers practice medicine.

Complete – an integrated solution that enhances clinical, business, and financial performance with EHR, Practice Management, and Claims Management capabilities.

Affordable – choose between an OnDemand offering (SaaS) or an on premise solution (installed on a server at your site). You’ve got the flexibility to pick the best approach for your practice to balance capital
budgets, equipment, operating costs, and your own information technology expertise.

The average Return On Investment (R.O.I.) for a solo practitioner using EMR is $240,000 over a 5 year period due to reduction in transcription expenses, increase in coding levels and revenue with improved documentation, decrease in staff required for pulling and maintaining charts, complete reduction in need to develop charts for new patients, and reduction in supply expenses.

A New Vision for Healthcare:

Healthcare is not a commodity, it’s a community. Patients expect their providers to be as accessible, knowledgeable and connected as their own neighbors.
