Cerner's VisitManager uses Instant Medical History to Enhance Patient Communications

Kansas City, MO — February 21, 2007

Cerner Corporation, a leading provider of fully integrated healthcare information systems, and Primetime Medical Software, the leading provider of software to support the computer-assisted interviewing of patients, today announced an agreement to embed Instant Medical History (IMH) into the Healthe Connections Visit Manager, creating a time-saving and revenue enhancing feature.

By providing each patient a symptom-specific questionnaire, Instant Medical History helps patients organize their history. Branching logic progresses quickly through adjustable questionnaires before organizing the positives and negatives for physicians. Using the Healthe Connection’s structured-messaging feature, VisitManager, patients and providers spend less time on paperwork and more time on quality. VisitManager also helps eliminate unnecessary non-urgent care visits through services such as:

  • Reimbursable eConsults
  • Online pre-visit interviews
  • Health history surveys

Key benefits of Instant Medical History:

  • Reduces the office visit by 3-4 minutes
  • Reduces data entry time
  • Enhances patient communication and satisfaction
  • Increases the documentation quality significantly
  • Enables online consultations between patients and physicians
