I've been trying to keep up with the Olympics as I have time. A DVR is a wonderful tool for doing that, although I'm usually a day behind and sometimes know the results before I get to watch. So far the USA is doing pretty well at winning gold medals.
Today I had a crazy vision: What if
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation was in the physician medical billing or electronic medical records Olympics? I think we'd be standing up there receiving our gold medals in many events like:
- Intergy by Sage medical claims software implementation
- Intergy EHR by Sage electronic health records implementation
- CCHIT 2008 certification for Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5
- Customer service survey score of 9.52 out of 10.
If you're not already part of our team, we want you on it! To find out what gold medal service and products are like, contact us at 317-713-2065 or contact us through this blog. Go USA!

Mike
Purdue won at Ohio State last night! It took some definite teamwork to pull this one off. On a night when Robbie Hummel was invisible, Grant and Johnson stepped up to help the Boilers beat the Bucks.
The medical software and hardware departments here at

- Phone support for medical billing system and electronic medical records software
- Phone support for hardware, including servers, printers, backups, etc.
- Training classes for new and existing medical claims software and EMR customers
- On-site implementation of Intergy by Sage and Intergy EHR by Sage
- EDI Enrollment for new and existing customers
- R&D for our medical office billing software and EHR software
- Interface work with hospital information systems, labs, and EMR systems
- Countless other things...including blogging!
Bradford-Scott is a team that wants to work for you. Our
service and support team is the best in the Midwest and we can prove it. In fact, we scored 9.52 on a scale from 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest on our most recent surveys. Go team! Boiler Up!

Mike
In many of my blogs I write about our medical claims software, Intergy by Sage and our electronic medical record system, Intergy EHR by Sage. Then I thought, who is Sage? What do they offer? Why are we aligned with them? Here's what I found:
Intergy and Intergy EHR are products developed and marketed by Sage North America. SNA has existed for quite some time as shown by the following statement from their company biography:
Sage North America began not as one company, but as the efforts of many entrepreneurs who built their successful products and businesses with a sincere focus on their customers. Today, our company represents the culmination of that combined entrepreneurial spirit, drive, and vision.This means that Sage is not small potatoes. As a whole, Sage North America supports 3.1 organizations in North America! And SNA is a subsidiary of its parent company, The Sage Group. According to Sage's website:
The Sage Group, plc, is a world-leading supplier of accounting and business management software to small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Because of the size of the company backing Intergy and Intergy EHR, we benefit by enjoying massive R&D budgets. This means that these products are always on the forefront of technology and are adding new features all the time. Take a minute to look at the specs for

For some time one of our system administrators at Bradford-Scott has been exploring caves. Brad Barcom has become an expert caver in an short amount of time. Last weekend he invited a few of us from work to go caving at Buckner Cave in Bloomington, IN. After acquiring permission and signing the release forms, we were off.
I took my 11-year-old Sam for what was promised to be a 2-3 hour trip. We crawled and crawled, sometimes through mud or water. Six hours later we were out! I think we were crawling for nearly four hours of the six! We saw lots of hibernating bats, a few formations, and a waterfall. Actually we crawled through the flowing waterfall which was the most difficult but also the most spectacular part of the cave. It was an experience I'll never forget.
But it's also nice to be back at
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation in a comfy, warm, dry chair. The world of dust, mud, clay and water has change to a world of EMR systems, medical claims software and data conversions. Though every muscle and joint in my body still aches, I can still use
Intergy by Sage and
Intergy EHR by Sage from the comfort of this keyboard! So if you're so inclined, be adventurous! And if you're a physician or work in physician medical billing, contact us for more information about Intergy by Sage or Intergy EHR by Sage.

I've been reading several articles today about the future of EHR (Electronic Health Records). One states that Health IT business is expected to increase yearly until at least 2013. This is because of the stimulus package that includes payments to physicians for meaningful use of EMR systems.
A couple other articles focused on improved patient care. One said that if electronic medical records systems were widely used, 25% of hip fractures could be prevented. Another stated that health care executives stated that data stored in their electronic medical record systems could become their most valuable asset over the next few years. It also said that secondary use of EHR data will grow exponentially in a short time period.
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation is ready for this explosion.

Many high school and college football teams are having their homecoming game over the next few weekends. We went to Pike's homecoming game last weekend and I'm going to Purdue's homecoming tomorrow! I tried to apply the word homecoming to a medical software system environment and here's what I came up with:

I always thought the word business was funny. Why would a place of work be called the same thing as the word that told how busy one was? I thought about it after a very busy weekend so I'll compare 'busy-ness' to business.
This weekend I went to a going away party, my daughter's cross-country meet, the skate park with my son, a concert with both kids, played golf, played softball, and drafted two fantasy football teams. During the few weekend hours I was home I moved and leveled dirt and pulled a bunch of weeds. That's what I consider busy. While some would say that sounds crazy and the weekend is a time for rest, I respond "You can sleep when you're dead."
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation is the business I work for. We sell, service and support physician medical billing software and electronic medical records systems. Why are we still in business after 25 years? Because of our busy-ness! We can make your business more successful with products such as:
- Intergy by Sage medical claims system
- CCHIT certified Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5 electronic medical record system
- Electronic Prescriptions
- On-site service, telephone support, training classes, and consulting
Our staff of professional trainers, software and hardware engineers, and developers stay busy to make your business more efficient and profitable. Give us a call at 317-713-2065 or contact us through this blog or our website.
Cheers and stay busy,

Fall is nearly here. The signs are everywhere: Kids are in school, the weather is cooling, Labor Day is approaching, and most importantly, football has begun! High school, college and NFL football are in high gear and boy am I ready for it.
Fall is also a time when many health care practices turn over a new leaf, so to speak. After the busy summer season, fall is when we at
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation see increased sales of our medical office billing software,
Intergy by Sage. Because of the 2009
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, this fall is an even better time to make the leap to an electronic medical record system (EMR).
Bradford-Scott sells medical claims software, medical charting software, and EMR systems. We can work with virtually any type of medical practice and have experience with several specialties such as:
- Orthopedics EMR
- Cardiology EMR
- Pediatrics EMR

Also,
Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5 is CCHIT certified and offers electronic prescriptions, both of which will help you conform to the requirements for the rebates being offered by the stimulus package.
Are you ready for some football? Go Colts!
Cheers,
Mike
Last night I took my daughter and her friends to the Blink-182 concert. I wasn't sure I wanted to go and didn't know if I'd like it. To make a long story short, I barely knew any of their songs but I really enjoyed the show and I was glad I went.
That reminded me of what many physicians say when asked if they are ready to move to an electronic medical records system. Many are unsure about whether they'll like it and whether it'll benefit their medical practice. Common fears about EMR systems include
limited paper access- less face time with the patient
- losing that trusty 1982 micro-cassette recorder
Well, welcome to 2009 and beyond! Enter the EHR world and you can enjoy things like
- electronic prescriptions
- integration with our medical claims software, Intergy by Sage
- CCHIT certified product (Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5) to help you receive stimulus funds
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation will provide you with professional training and the best support in the Midwest. Your transition to
Intergy EHR by Sage will be beneficial, cost-effective and productive. Try it, you'll like it!

I've been here at
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation for over 17 years. I started as a student fresh out of Purdue and was hired as a medical software specialist. When I was interviewing with Bradford-Scott's President, Scott Elliott, he told me that there are many physician billing software companies out there. He also told me that Bradford-Scott was the Cadillac of all medical software companies (he also compared us to the Chicago Bulls, but as a Pacer fan I kind of let that one slide).
One reason for Bradford-Scott's excellence in the medical claims software industry is our
support and training. With a 29 minute or less callback time, our local support staff gets back to our customers faster than anybody out there. And Bradford-Scott classes are available to our entire client base as much as they need them.
Over the years I've seen a number of products, but one of the most exciting current products is our electronic medical records system. Also referred to as EMR or EHR, our CCHIT-certified
Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5 product is contemporary, robust, user-friendly and powerful. It also integrates directly with our medical office billing software,
Intergy by Sage.
Our new slogan says it all:
"Same great service, new generation of products"
Everywhere you look in the health care industry, the acronym CCHIT seems to be popping up. It seems like one of those acronyms that is overused without everyone knowing the full meaning of it. So I decided to do some research. Here's what I found:
- What is CCHIT: First of all, it stands for Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology. What do they do? They certify EMR systems for compliance and completeness. Their website states the following about the company: "The Certification Commission is a private nonprofit organization with the sole public mission of accelerating the adoption of robust, interoperable health information technology by creating a credible, efficient certification process."
- Why CCHIT? First and foremost, you want to be sure your electronic medical records system is the best. It should be powerful, comprehensive, and user-friendly. Here is a link to the CCHIT page describing the features and compliance of Intergy EHR by Sage. Secondly and probably equally importantly, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act is going to require some sort of certification for EHR systems to qualify for stimulus money. CCHIT is the odds-on favorite to certify these EMR vendors.
Now that you've been informed about CCHIT, it's time to check out
Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5. With over 25 years in business, Bradford-Scott Data Corporation and set you up with an EMR system, medical claims software, and the best
support and service in the Midwest! Contact us through this blog, our website, or call 317-713-2065 for more information.
As far as EMR systems go,
Bradford-Scott Data Corporation can offer you the best in the business. Intergy EHR by Sage, our flagship EMR product, can be tailored to suit several specialties. It offers pediatrics EMR, orthopedics EMR, cardiology EMR, OB GYN EMR as well as many others. In all cases, our electronic medical records system is highly customizable and can produce electronic prescriptions.
Intergy EHR is also integrated with our medical office billing software, Intergy by Sage. This medical claims software has been around for several years and ranks at the top of practice management system and EMR reviews.
Bradford-Scott's biggest advantage is our customer service. If your practice is in Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Ohio, or Michigan, you will not find better support than you will at BSDC. If you'd like more information about our
CCHIT-certified EHR product, Intergy EHR by Sage v5.5, our medical insurance billing software, or our outstanding customer service and crew, leave me a comment or check our
