MDsuite allows for multiple workflows for entering electronic prescriptions. In the screen shot to the left, you can see where prescriptions are entered during an encounter. The provider can transmit and send the prescriptions or clinical staff can finish up the order saving the doctor time.

MDsuite automatically checks interactions before any orders are sent, immunizations are performed, and medications are prescribed. The provider can override interactions if needed based on her/his expert opinion. Users can also choose to check for interactions at any point during an encounter.

Saving you time, MDsuite's problem list is automatically built as you document patient encounters. You can also manually add problems that existed prior to using MDsuite or prior to your care for the patient. Each problem can be individually managed with a comment, resolution date, and order on the list.  Users can choose to hide or show resolved problems or start an assessment and plan right from the problem list!

Users can prescribe from the encounter or outside of the encounter, easily and quickly. Each prescriber can build a list of commonly used meds and sigs to cut down on time. Electronic Prescriptions can also be included in "Order Sets", a frequently used group of prescriptions, educational documents, procedures, immunizations, follow-up or referral orders. Practices using MDsuite to prescribe love the benefits!

Current Medications can be manually added or imported from a service called RxHub. RxHub collects and stores prescription information for each patient when insurance is used. This information is available to you for review and importing when MDsuite finds a match on RxHub. Also, once you prescribe a medication, it is automatically added to the patient's current medication list.

Any allergy can be added in MDsuite. There is a common allergy list you can quickly select from or indicate no known allergies or no known drug allergies. If you cannot find the allergy in the database then you can enter the allergy in a free-form text field to add it to the list. Each allergy has an associated severity and note.

In addition to those required for Meaningful Use, MDsuite has many fields allowing for flexibility in creating custom reports and clinical decision rules. We also allow you to create your own section within demographics with custom fields your office specifically might need. The options are endless!

MDsuite has many vital signs and we can add any that you need that are specialty specific. Vital Signs are automatically displayed in both metric and standard measurements. BMI is one example of a vital sign that MDsuite automatically calculates based on other vital signs you enter.

MDsuite will automatically display the applicable CDC Growth Charts based on age. Vital signs you have entered will overlay the graph so you can visually see the comparison. Growth charts are available during an encounter and also from the patient's chart.

A patient's smoking status can be entered into MDsuite in the Vital Sign screen or as part of a customized Flow Sheet. The smoking status is retained from encounter to encounter so it only needs to be updated if the patient's smoking behavior changes.

CMS has determined a list of Quality Measures which EPs are required to report.  MDsuite comes with these measures.  Each EP can select which measures they would like to see as Clinical Alerts and those they would like to report yearly.

In MDsuite, you have the ability to create almost any clinical decision rule you would like to implement. In the encounter and the chart, small red alerts will appear if the decision rule applies to the patient. MDsuite can generate a list of patients based on a selected clinical rule enabling the office to reach out to their patients. Based on a selected decision rule, MDsuite can send secure HIPAA compliant messages to all patients using MDsuite's Patient Portal.

With the click of one button MDsuite generates a pdf of your patient's health information. You can print the pdf, save it, or export the information in an electronic format. MDsuite will also help track these requests for information made by patients so you can report it to CMS since this is a meaningful use requirement.

After an encounter, you can generate a Visit Summary in one click. This summary can be printed, saved or exported to an electronic format. The Visit Summary is customizable per provider to display the information the provider would like. In additional to clinical information, you can also display demographics, future appointments, and the patient's balance with payments.

MDsuite allows you to easily export a patient's clinical information in a secured encrypted electronic format. You are able to send this file to other providers using MDsuite or any other Certified EMR since the file is in a standard format. This measure is just requiring that you attempt at least one exchange; DSI will assist you with the test.

Data Strategies has implemented and met the requirements for Certified EMRs. Examples of a few of these safety measures are shown to the left: recording and tracking emergency access of a patient's chart, logging every user's interaction with the EMR, and auto log out of MDsuite after a period of inactivity. Each practice also has a responsibility to ensure that their staff and other EMR protocols are HIPAA compliant.
