Coming in the Future, as we move towards Electronic Medical Records

We will be moving to "Electronic Medical Records" (EMR) this coming Summer 2009, with a company known as eClinicalWorks, and eventually the paper charts will be a thing of the past.

A secure (username/password/encrypted) web-portal will be part of this to enable you as a parent to better access certain information that you need. You will not have access to the whole chart, but features will eventually include some of the following:

1. Access to your child's growth charts to review.
2. Results of lab work, such as throat culture results.
3. Ability to request well child appointments, allowing you to specify best times, days, etc.
4. Secure email (through this secure encrypted web portal) to our business office.
5. Register as a new patient, and once you are provided a username and password, fill out
    all the new patient demographics, and medical history forms.(and have this, once verified
    and released, be entered directly into the electronic medical records database).
6. Fill out questionnaires and forms over the secure Internet connection.
7. Be able to receive appointment reminders, and notices about flu shot availability, etc.
8. Much, much more.
