Geriatric Practice Management Corp (GEHRIMED) has achieved Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONCHIT) 2015 Edition Health IT Module Certification via Drummond Group LLC, the company announced.
The certification says the software reflects specific functionality between providers and hospitals. GEHRIMED, which has its headquarters in North Carolina, met the requirements for the 2015 Health IT Module as the mobile EHR platform built specifically for — and by — long-term/post-acute care practitioners.
“Certification is incredibly important to us as an EHR vendor,” said Rod Baird, president, Geriatric Practice Management Corp. “Once you pass the testing, your product joins the ranks of all other Certified Technology providers. That reality makes the testing process challenging for software developers responsible for certification – they are participating in a very important procedure, the significance of which is lost with our customers.”
Drummond Group, which is based in Texas, has certified hundreds of EHRs since becoming an Authorized Certification Body in 2010, the company said.
