Medix and ParkStone Announce Integrated Solution for Physician Practices
Software Interface Enables Seamless Connectivity Between Practice Management Systems and ParkStone's Hand-held Solution
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 9, 2000-- Medix Resources, Inc. (AMEX: MXR - news) announced the availability of Medix's patented Universal Interface with ParkStone's hand-held application for physicians.
This integrated capability enables the upload of patient demographics and insurance data from pre-existing physician practice management systems (PMS) to the ParkStone System, without the need for custom programming code. This enables the ParkStone System to synchronize with the PMS seamlessly and efficiently, allowing physicians to use the ParkStone system in combination with the PMS without changing physician workflow. The companies will now field test the integrated units in doctors' offices. Improving physician office efficiencies without changing the way physicians practice is a key factor in gaining physician adoption of the companies' office and provider connectivity solutions.
ParkStone and Cymedix continue to work together to fully integrate their products to include hand-held delivery of medication history, plan-specific formularies, medication prior authorization forms, lab orders and results, and electronic claims submissions.
John Prufeta, Chief Executive Officer of Medix commented, ``We are pleased with the ongoing joint development efforts with ParkStone and the progress made to date in this important strategic alliance. I continue to believe that the combination of ParkStone's world-class hand-held product and Medix's breakthrough proprietary technology represents a powerful value proposition for the mainstream physician. We expect 2001 to be an exciting year in terms of both co-development as well as joint deployment of our integrated solution.''
``The ability for the ParkStone hand-held application to seamlessly synchronize with practice management systems is a critical need to drive maximum physician satisfaction and office efficiency,'' said John H. Johnson, ParkStone President and CEO. ``ParkStone's exclusive ability to leverage the Cymedix proprietary interface tool along with Cymedix capabilities to integrate medication histories and other clinical information into the hand-held system from various sources puts ParkStone ahead of the curve in this market.''
