Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Allscripts
Healthcare Solutions, Inc., is a leading medical software and information
publishing company whose mission is improving health outcomes by delivering
customized electronic health information to physicians and their patients.
Backlash against managed care and a dramatic rise in health consumerism have served to highlight a fundamental dilemma for health care. As competitive health care organizations are recognizing the fundamental importance of a strong, collaborative relationship between patients and physicians, our nation's health providers are overwhelmed with administrative work, have less time to spend with patients, and are experiencing a worrisome reduction in job satisfaction. Medifor's solution is to harness affordable, easy-to-implement information technologies that help reduce physician workload, enhance the quality of treatment decisions, empower the provider as an educator, and help make patients full, collaborative partners in their own care. |
