First Medical Solutions Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of EMR Technology Solutions, Inc. ("EMR"), announced today that it has achieved the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC-Health IT), 2015 Edition Health IT Module Certification for its "First MedicalEHR" software for ambulatory care practitioners via The Drummond Group, LLC, an Authorized Certification Body (ACB) that has been authorized to test software for compliance with the requirements of the federal government's program. This stamp of approval designates that the software offers the functionality that enables eligible providers and hospitals to meet Meaningful Use requirements, qualifying these organizations to receive payments under the ongoing EHR adoption program.
"2017 was a landmark year for us, allowing us to complete the development, testing and certification of the First Medical Solutions software," said John X. Adiletta, EMR's President and Chief Executive Officer. "During the year, we have seen more signs that the industry is consolidating. EMR companies are finding it harder to generate enough value for clients without an integrated technology platform and we are pleased to be in a position in 2018 to be able to provide such a platform for our clients."
To earn the certification, First MedicalEHR was tested to be in accordance with applicable standards and certification criteria put forth by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.
With more than 15 years of testing experience across various industries, The Drummond Group brings a high level of technical expertise to this process. Its healthcare experience also runs deep, having certified hundreds of EHRs since becoming an ACB in 2012.
First MedicalEHR, which met the requirements for 2015 Edition Certification, is the emerging leader of Electronic Medical and Health Records for all sizes of ambulatory care medical practices. First MedicalEHR is a cloud-based solution designed by physicians and practice administrators to optimize clinical care and practice business operations.
