Our Client Results / EHR Consulting 

Medical Advantage Transforms an FQHC’s EHR and Practice Operations for Optimal Efficiency  

Results

Our solutions strengthened consistency across the practice, as we implemented best practices to ensure that all staff were following the same procedures. In addition, we enhanced reporting, introducing cumulative reports that allow providers to view all patient labs in one report instead of having to open each one individually. This resulted in more efficient and effective patient care and increased accuracy and precision in diagnosis and treatment.
