Greenway agrees that the most important step in building a community electronic health record (EHR) is physician adoption. Nearly 100% of Greenway customers have implemented and utilized the PrimeSuite EHR at the point of care. This is more than double the national average for deployed EHRs.

Compliance with increased documentation and coding requirements presented by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) and the electronic prescription mandate under the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 are increasingly important to hospitals and regional health information organizations (RHIOs). These mandates require systems maintenance for drug utilization screening as well as a plan to detect, correct and prevent fraud and abuse that includes openness to audits of financial records, clinical coding and how the two coordinate. Failure to comply or evidence of abuse can lead to law enforcement or administrative actions.

PrimeSuite successfully addresses elements like privacy, security and transcriptions. Our solutions provide full support of clinical documentation by ensuring billing codes are automatically checked and integrated with the billing solution. Additionally, Greenway’s solutions address transaction and billing codes that meet all current compliance requirements, including Documentation Guidelines for Evaluation and Management Services (EMDOC).

Stark and anti-kickback safe harbors allow reimbursement for providers who receive donated EHRs from affiliated health groups, but they also require certification of EHRs by organizations such as Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT) that are officially recognized by regulators as adhering to compliance standards. PrimeSuite 2008 was one of the first EHRs to be certified by CCHIT® based on 08 Ambulatory EHR Certification requirements in 2008. Our solution also meets CCHIT 2007 and CCHIT 2006 guidelines, the first year certification was available.
