ABELSoft’s ABELMed PM - EMR v 8 Receives Full CCHIT 2007 Certification

29 October 2008 – ABELSoft Corporation, a market leader in providing healthcare IT solutions for over 31 years, today announced that their ABELMed PM - EMR v 8 software has successfully achieved full product certification by the Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT®) and meets the Commission’s ambulatory electronic health record (EHR) criteria for 2007.

ABELMed PM – EMR v 8 complies with 100 percent of the Commission’s 2007 certification criteria and its operational use at a physician office site has been verified. Ambulatory EHRs are designed for physician offices and clinics where most Americans get their healthcare. The Certification Commission – a private, nonprofit organization – is the Recognized Certification Body in the United States for certifying health information technology products.

“ABELSoft Corporation is proud to be a market leader in providing practice enhancing healthcare IT solutions”, said Arun Rele, President and CEO. “Our Microsoft Gold Certified Partner status positions us to leverage the latest technologies to develop the best possible solutions for healthcare professionals. ABELSoft is committed to delivering certified solutions that make it easy for physicians and other healthcare providers to implement interoperable Electronic Health Records which incorporate widely accepted industry standards, a goal shared by the Certification Commission. We believe that such standards are vital to the industry and we share the Commission’s ongoing dedication to assisting the end user in making the right choices for EHRs.”

Arun Rele also stated that, “We believe our CCHIT certifications for 2006 and 2007 confirm our ongoing commitment to provide healthcare professionals with fully integrated EMR and practice management solutions that are flexible, scalable, user friendly and clinically useful. We are already working towards meeting the 2008 certification criteria. Our time-tested and perfected scheduler, multiple options for entering data, customizable templates, e-Prescribing (also available as a stand-alone product), automatic drug interaction checks, document management, and a comprehensive billing module with built in edit engine and code optimizer wizard are just a few examples of how ABELMed PM - EMR can streamline ambulatory practices. I urge physicians and other healthcare professionals to discover these features and take advantage of our incentives program. We are also seeking a limited number of qualified, well-established companies to partner with us in delivering our proven software solutions to health care professionals.”

As a CCHIT Certified product, ABELMed PM - EMR has been tested and passed inspection of 100 percent of a set of updated criteria for functionality, interoperability and security.
