Re: Recommendation Needed - Software packages for tracking/securing patient records

["McCrone, Kevin" <kmccrone () ILSTU EDU>]

Our University has been using a product called Point and Click Solutions.  There are a few others like Medicat, 
Neusoft, PracticeFusion, eClinicWorks, Allscripts.  Start with some searching for "EHR college health" and you'll see 
links to their websites.  All of these solutions will provide some way or other to begin documenting clinic notes, 
orders, and other associated clinical documentation all electronically.  You'll need to choose something that fits your 
organization best.  All will also help with HIPAA compliance, but most of the compliance will come from your 
organization's policies, procedures, training, and most importantly, staff operations.

Subject: [SECURITY] Recommendation Needed - Software packages for tracking/securing patient records

Hi Folks....

Along the same lines of "health centers" - our Student Health Center is still on paper records and has been told that 
they need to move to "electronic records management".  We have a student body of ~30,000, with a total of ~50,000 
active student health records at any given point in time.  It's a very small clinical setting with only 2-3 health 
providers, but the data clearly falls under HIPAA.  We know we need to get them off "paper", but neither we, nor they, 
are sure what software packages they should be looking at.

Any thoughts or opinions would be welcome.....

Thanks,

Michael Schalip
