Efficiently Utilize an Electronic Task List
Document Imaging

pending charts and test results. Click tabs to move from
messages to pending charts to test results and back.

messages containing chart notes, medications, allergies,
diagnoses and procedures. Review and electronically

Complete Chart Notes Quickly
Specialty-Specific Template Content
Predefined templates add ease and efficiency to exams
and procedures, such as review of systems and post-op
exams. Build a note by selecting structured text from
glossaries, entering vitals and even writing free text. Plus,
add medications, allergies, problems and procedures
to a chart note. You can preview a chart note during its
creation and print or fax it on demand. And, if you use
Coding Assistant, you can check chart notes for CMS
(formerly HCFA) coding compliance.
Charting in Misys EMR is fast and efficient through the
use of “normal” buttons and “one-click” features that
populate chart notes in an instant, saving you time and
money! Our own Template Care Team works directly with
clinicians to create specialty-specific templates that follow
your current workflow.
Why Misys EMR?
Specialty-Specific Clinical Data – In order to provide you
with an EMR system that works the way you do, we enlist
the help of our Misys EMR Advisory Board that is comprised of experienced specialists from across the country.
