Two more electronic health record (EHR) software products have been certified by the Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology (CCHIT).
iMedica Patient Relationship Manager 2005 Version 5.1 from iMedica and Praxis Electronic Medical Records Version 3.4 from INFOR-MED have met the commission's criteria for functionality, interoperability and information security.
CCHIT has now completed its first round of certifications of EHR products for use in providers' offices, referred to as 'ambulatory' EHR products. A new round of certifications for ambulatory products is set to begin and CCHIT will accept vendor applications August 1 through August 14.
Industry associations formed CCHIT, which is supported by a grant from the Department of Health and Human Services, to make buying EHR software easier and less risky.
