MyMedicalRecords.com Launches Affordable Electronic Medical Records Solution for Doctors
1/25/08 – Los Angeles-based MyMedicalRecords.com, which provides web-based personal health records services, has debuted MMR Pro, which it says is an easy-to-use, low-cost system that enables physicians and other healthcare providers to store paper-based patient medical records in a secure online environment without requiring upfront costs for special hardware or software.
The company is addressing the increasing impetus from regulators on adoption of electronic records by physicians and other healthcare providers. MyMedicalRecords.com says MMR Pro enables doctors to get many of the benefits of an extensive electronic records system by digitizing patient files on the same day the patient leaves the office, with minimal disruption to existing workflow. MMR Pro physicians will also be afforded the option to have all “back-file” paper records indexed and scanned for online access at a nominal cost. Patients will also be able to access and view their records at no cost from any Internet-connected computer, according to the company.
In addition, digitized patient files are stored on a secure web site branded with the name of the physician practice. Then using its MMRFreeView service, MyMedicalRecords.com says patients will be able to view his or her individual records by logging into their account with a secure password.
At the core of the MyMedicalRecords.com service is a document management and communications platform that allows doctors to securely fax medical and personal health records such as lab test results and immunization reports into a user’s account. Images such as x-rays, scans and MRIs can be uploaded directly from the computer desktop, allowing users to efficiently and confidentially manage their health records through a personalized account, according to the company.
