EHR
"Healthcare Providers must embrace EHRs not just because of federal incentives, but for the benefit of patients, community health and to comply with the Hippocratic Oath and the AMA Principles of Medical Ethics. The ability of EHR to improve the quality of care and reduce medical costs has been demonstrated and documented."
–F. Robert Yates Jr., MBA, FACMPE, Fache, MGMA member and vice president, Children’s National Medical Center, Washington, DC.
There is no argument that implementing an EHR is a solid business decision but the difficult part is selecting an EHR that meets all of the governmental requirements yet can fit seamlessly into your practice at a cost that is reasonable.
After an arduous selection process IBS. Inc. has selected Agastha Software to be our Electronic Health Records (EHR) partner. We believe that the Agastha software best meets the needs for the physician practice and the hospital environment.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services posted a proposed rule defining "meaningful use" of electronic health records to qualify for the Medicare and Medicaid incentive payments authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Also posted was an interim final rule from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology that sets initial standards, implementation specifications and certification criteria for EHR technology.
Both rules are available for viewing in a draft format at federalregister.gov/inspection.aspx, and will be published in the Federal Register on Jan. 13, with a 60-day comment period effective at that time. The interim final rule will become effective 30 days after publication - January 1, 2010
