Greenway Medical Technologies Selected to Florida Medical Association's List of Preferred EHR Vendors

September 25, 2008, Carrollton, Ga. – Greenway Medical Technologies Inc., with its 2007 Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT®) certified electronic health record (EHR), PrimeSuite® 2007 R2, has been selected to the Florida Medical Association's (FMA) Preferred Vendor List.

The FMA only reviewed EHRs that were CCHIT Certified®, had inherent e-prescribing functionality and an established customer base within the state of Florida. The EHR solutions that met the preliminary requirements were then further inspected before the final list was established. PrimeSuite 2007 R2 is one of 11 solutions, out of 47 CCHIT Certified ambulatory EHRs for 2007, which will be recommended by the FMA and available to physicians and physician practices within the state of Florida.

The Certification Commission, whose mission is to accelerate adoption of health information technology (HIT) by creating efficient, credible and sustainable certification programs, is the recognized certification body (RCB) for EHRs in the United States.

Founded in 1874, the Florida Medical Association is a professional association dedicated to the service and assistance of doctors of medicine and doctors of osteopathic medicine in Florida. The FMA represents more than 17,000 physicians on issues of legislation and regulatory affairs, medical economics and education, public health and ethical and legal issues. The FMA advocates for physicians and their patients to promote public health ensure the highest standards of medical practice and to enhance the quality and availability of healthcare in Florida.

“We are honored to be selected to the FMA's preferred vendor list. It is both a credit and a distinction for Greenway, as only a select few CCHIT Certified EHRs were chosen,” said Justin Barnes, vice president of marketing and government affairs at Greenway Medical. “We are also pleased to be working with such an esteemed organization that works tirelessly, along with Greenway, on important physician issues.”

“The preferred vendor list is a crucial component of our electronic medical record (EMR) Grant Project,” said Glen Fielder, director for the FMA's EMR Grant Project. “This program, funded by a grant awarded by the Physician Foundation for Health Systems Excellence (PFHSE), is designed to educate and assist physicians in the selection of an EMR/EHR. We are pleased that Greenway Medical Technologies has joined our efforts to help the physicians of Florida navigate this arduous process.”
