FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
PRLog (Press Release) – Dec 06, 2011 – eMedicalFusion, LLC, with headquarters in St. Louis, MO and technology leadership in the Virginia technology corridor in Tysons Corner, VA has closed a major systems deal with Pounds and Inches Away (PAIA), leader and pioneer in the HCG Weight Loss Industry. The deal will initially support the launch of their Express Franchisee Program, then will be implemented in their 14 existing locations across the country. “We selected eMedicalFusion due to their unique combination of functionality and business process combined with their willingness to build specific functionality to meet our unique requirements”, says Dr. Zach LaBoube, CEO of Pounds and Inches Away.
“We are very pleased that we were selected as PAIA’s technology partner, says Andre Etherly, CEO and Chief Technology officer. With our technology powering their Express Franchisee Offering, many medical practices are likely to find that the PAIA program is a non-disruptive way to add a new revenue stream and help the growing obesity problem in the US. Our technology is a great fit out of the box, but when combined with our unique business model that allows us to build extended functionality to meet the specific needs of our large clients, our offering is very compelling, says Etherly.

Talking about the new EMR interfaces, Etherly says, “We are pleased to announce the broad availability of two new EMR interfaces, both with leaders in their respective markets”. Our interface with Amazing Charts, the #1 rated EMR in multiple studies and market analyses provides demographic data integration so that as the patients are registered in eMedicalFusion, they will populate in Amazing Charts. It eliminates the duplicate data entry frequently seen within many medical practices that causes inefficiency and errors in the data. At the same time, we have also released our demographic data integration interface with Eclipse, a long time standard in the Chiropractic market. “The Chiropractic market is a perfect fit market for our product,” says Diana Baumohl, Vice President and Marketing Director, and we believe that the Eclipse Interface will make our product offering very attractive to Chiropractors.

The selection by PAIA validates the eMedicalFusion tag line “just add the doctor”, says Baumohl. eMedicalFusion will allow PAIA to rapidly add Franchisee Doctors with minimal training and implementation time required for each location to be implemented. We are also continuing to see strong demand from individual doctors opting out of insurance as eMedicalFusion provides the complete solution whether the practice is new/emerging, well established or a large complex practices consisting of multiple physicians and multiple locations.

eMedicalFusion will be exhibiting at the American Association for Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M) conference in Las Vegas Dec. 8 to Dec. 11. Physicians, Business Managers and others attending the conference can find eMedicalFusion in booth #1035.
