Physicians confirm MD Logic Offers Fastest EMR in Healthcare
Representatives for MD Logic were very busy during the months of April and May participating in multiple trade shows around the USA. Doctors who attended the American Academy of Foot and Ankle Surgeons, Combined Otolaryngology Spring Meeting, American Academy of Neurological Surgeons, American Osteopathic Academy of Orthopaedics and the Bones Society Meeting were able receive a hands on demonstration of the MD Logic World Wide EMR™. Doctor and administrators who attended these shows were amazed at the speed, simplicity and accuracy of the MD Logic World Wide EMR™.
Bill Hurdle, MD Logic Regional Manager, stated, " everyone who takes the time to complete a hands-on demonstration says they can’t believe how simply we have made going paperless". Some doctors make the decision to sign up for MD Logic at the show while others invite MD Logic to their office to complete paperwork. I have never met a doctor who has not commented on the fact that MD Logic is "no doubt" the fastest solution for going paperless. As we continue to lead the industry in "real-time" documentation, other vendors encourage dictation because they simply don’t have a solution that can efficiently document patient care. When it comes to speed and accuracy, nothing can touch the MD Logic World Wide EMR™".

With this feature, there is no limitation of the types of documents/forms that can be generated for our customers".
Health care providers are being forced to complete more forms with each patient visit. MD Logic gives healthcare providers the technology to easily generate those typical forms that have been preprinted for handouts to patients. Our customers are able to save an hour or more each day by automating this process.

Orthopaedic Teaching Hospital Chooses MD Logic World Wide EMR
The Orthopaedic department at Methodist Hospital in Houston Texas has selected the MD Logic World Wide EMR™ for their EMR solution in taking the Orthopaedic department paperless. The Orthopaedic department at Methodist Hospital had originally implemented MD Logic as their solution to document patient care.

Dr Adler stated, "I have been reviewing EMR systems for the past few years but found most of these systems to be drop-down / pick list systems. I wanted a system that was fast, flexible and easy to use. My goal was to implement technology that would save me time and allow me to document care "real time" in the exam room. I visited the MD Logic booth at the Annual Society of Hand Surgeons meeting in September 2006 and completed and hands-on demonstration. I knew right away that I had finally found a system that was right for my practice. I have flat panel touch screen monitirs in all my exam rooms and document care real time as I provide patient care. There is no mouse required and I simply touch the screen with my finger. I know many practices that have gone paperless but most still dictate. My practice is paperless and we have automated our clinical documentation. I would recommend MD Logic to any provider who wants to implement an EMR that will save time."
