Nitin Chhoda Reveals the New and Huge Advantages for Clinicians in a Web-Based EMR

(February 15, 2013)

Denville, NJ (PRWEB) February 15, 2013

Nitin Chhoda is a medical community trailblazer, on a mission to change the way physical therapy documentation, billing, and patient scheduling are conducted. EMR (electronic medical record) and its use in physical therapy has the potential to save clinics billions of dollars, while speeding up and increasing the quality of care provided by practitioners.

When I moved over to EMR for physical therapy services, I had huge rooms, and a large storage locker filled with paperwork and patient documentation, explains licensed physical therapist, Nitin Chhoda, After I moved over, I was able to stop creating more paperwork, digitize my existing paperwork, and stop paying rent for all of this extra space. It so changed the way I practice everything from scheduling, to billing, to documentation became much easier, and if I make a visit to a patient in a hospital, I can pull up their records on my iPad.

Cloud-based EMR software is similar to software deployed nearly a decade ago in other industries like banking, sales, and inventory management. The medical field has lagged in the development and integration of physical therapy documentation software, continuing to do most clinical functions by hand, which is labor intensive and expensive. These new software solutions allow clinicians easy access to patient information which is stored remotely, through all of the most popular devices available today. Further, they allow sharing of information between clients physicians and their physical therapist, bill patients insurance companies, track payments, and effectively coordinate patient scheduling.

Chhoda has long been a leader in the use and implementation of physical therapy scheduling software. His latest venture, EMR News website has the aim of helping other clinics come online in the same way he had, and realize the savings which technology can bring when properly implemented into the clinical environment. The website is currently a leading source of information on the shift towards electronic medical records, which was pushed through in 2009 by President Obama, and the United States Congress.
