Colorado health center selects eClinicalWorks for EMR, PM

Salud Family Health Centers, a federally qualified community health center in Colorado outside of Denver, has purchased licenses of eClinicalWorks unified EMR and practice management (PM) solution.

Salud operates nine clinics and one administrative and training center in north central and northeastern Colorado. The software will support more than 100 providers to streamline practice operations between nine geographically dispersed locations from patient check-in to check-out, according to the health center.

Using eClinicalWorks EMR/PM, Salud will streamline internal processes between practice locations and promote patient safety. The health center also plans to implement eClinicalWorks Enterprise Business Optimizer, which uses meta-data to give the practice more flexibility through the creation of customized reports and by performing clinical and financial analysis, according to the Westborough, Mass.-based eClinicalWorks.
