Faced with inefficiencies in patient data management and disconnected workflows, a leading US medical university partnered with Rishabh Software to build a cloud-based EHR system using OpenEMR. The solution integrated seamlessly with WordPress, improving registration, patient tracking, and care delivery.
Objective
In today’s day and age, patient care is one of the most critical aspects of healthcare. An integrated approach is required to collaborate, doctors, patients, medical service providers. Prescriptions, vaccines need to be tracked and understood how patients are using them to improve care. Rishabh Software developed an EHR system for a US-based university to familiarize its medical students with EMR and implement planned patient care using OpenEMR. Currently, the university is using a student portal built in WordPress, and we helped to integrate WordPress with OpenEMR to streamline the registration process.
Challenges
- Patient information visibility
- Patient tracking and billing
- User Experience leading to many human errors
- Lack of patient reports
Approach
Rishabh Software’s team understood the client’s pain areas and developed a robust plan for analyzing the current IT ecosystem and developing an EMR system. There are many EHR systems available, and we selected OpenEMR with its compliance with US healthcare standards and robust data security. We first integrated the database of WordPress with OpenEMR to avoid data redundancy. The user interface of OpenEMR is quite primary, and we developed custom CSS and HTML to improve the usability of the solution. Many feature components are developed like-
- University/Student Management
- Practitioner Management
- Patient Management
- Meeting/Schedule Management
- Patient & Doctor Reports
- Messaging & Communication
The EMR solution was developed to serve three primary users – Portal Administrator, Patients, and Doctors. The web-based EMR solution also helped to streamline the patient care lifecycle with the availability of accurate patient information in real-time.
