Several MEA partners have
special expertise in Emergency Medicine information systems. Electronic documentation
systems dramatically improve the quality of medical record
documentation, reduce emergency department risk and improve
hospital coding, with corresponding increase in charges and
reimbursement. The return on investment of these programs
is unparalleled. MEA believes that there will be an inevitable
progression from dictation and template documentation to
the use of electronic tools. MEA can assist your hospital
in this critical area of technological development.
Implementation
of ED information systems is often a high hurdle for hospitals.
To bridge the gap, MEA has developed
and implemented a series of clinical templates, which focus
on risk and quality indicators. These tools assure quality
documentation while assisting appropriate reimbursement,
and have been well utilized by several of the hospitals
with which our affiliated entities contract.
