Inforamtion Technology & EMR Consulting

Successful implementation of today's information technology can have a dramatic impact on the success, efficiency, and profitability of your medical practice. Advances in technology can quickly lead to obsolete solutions providing less than desired results.

Systems Consulting

A needs assessment study can provide important information about your current operation and assist in identifying appropriate software, hardware, and networking solutions to meet your specific goals. Critical management information requirements can also be identified to assist with solving managed care, contracting, capitation, and other pressing issues. The correct solution will give your practice the important edge that is required to maintain efficiencies and remain competitive in today's marketplace.

The professionals at HORNE LLP can assess your information systems needs and help you in choosing the computer system that best fulfills them. In the system selection process, we recommend vendors, prepare requests for proposals, schedule demonstrations, review proposals, make final recommendations on system selection, and provide timely project management to ensure a successful implementation.

For practice management systems, we consult with you and your vendor onsite during installation and training to assure the system setup and training is suitable for your staff. After installation, we provide telephone support for practice management questions regarding the system. Our professionals can outline recommendations on daily and monthly workflow procedures to assure efficiency and internal control in your operations.

Our consultants are trained and certified to perform a wide variety of tasks. From software and network analysis, system administration, and integration to remote communications and local/wide area networking, we can outline a complete solution to provide maximum benefits for your technology investment.

Whether you are considering an upgrade or a complete new system, let the professionals at HCPAG assist you in solving your information technology needs.
