PASO Patient Access Solutions Inc (CE)

Patient Access Solutions, Inc. (Pink Sheets:PASO), an emerging provider of technologies that allow the healthcare industry a graceful migration to Electronic Medical Records (EMR), today announced it has now activated its new Electronic Medical Records (EMR) platform, which is specifically designed to allow smaller-sized healthcare practices to cost-effectively and conveniently acquire a state-of-the-art EMR solution. 

The comprehensive product offering, which is available through Patient Access Solutions' www.pashealthemr.com web portal, is Internet-based, making it very cost effective, easy to use and simple to maintain without the need for additional on-site computer servers or specialized technical personnel. 

"We are very excited to now make this state-of-the-art EMR product offering available to the marketplace. The staff at Patient Access Solutions has been able to deliver this product on time and within budget and we are already seeing a significant level of interest. The Company has already been very successful at marketing our digital pen technology and insurance eligibility offerings, but these products have been only part of the comprehensive EMR solutions our customers desire," commented Bruce Weitzberg, CEO of Patient Access Solutions. "This new state-of-the-art EMR product offering will allow us to integrate all of our technologies, thereby enabling our health care practice customers the ability to use a single platform in order to meet all of their EMR needs. Because almost all of the software that runs our system resides on the Internet, implementation and ongoing use is significantly easier compared to the expensive server-based systems that typically require ongoing support from technical personnel. With our system, health care providers can concentrate on taking care of their patients and let us concentrate on providing them with a state-of-the-art EMR platform that allows for increased productivity and profits," said Weitzberg.

Patient Access Solutions' new platform is specifically targeted at smaller healthcare practices, which usually have neither on-site technical personnel nor the desire to acquire such personnel. The Company has designed its platform to be very easy to implement and operate in order to make the conversion to electronic medical records simple. There are currently more than 800 physicians using various forms of the Company's services. Migration of even a small portion of these physicians to this new product offering could easily generate millions of dollars in revenues annually for Patient Access Solutions.

Small and mid-sized healthcare provider and physician practices will spend billions of dollars over the next few years purchasing and implementing electronic medical record systems. The U.S. Federal government has instituted an aggressive incentive program to foster this implementation by providing up to $40,000 to physicians who implement EMR solutions.
