Washington orthopedic group selects SRS hybrid EMR

Cascade Orthopaedics has selected SRSsoft's EMR for its three offices, which provide care to the Tacoma area of Washington State.

SRS delivers a system that gives physicians what they want, helps them work more efficiently and enables them to achieve a rapid return on investment, according to Evan Steele, CEO of the Montvale, N.J.-based SRSsoft.

"The success of the SRS EMR in high-volume orthopaedic practices similar to ours solidified our purchase decision. We are encouraged by how easy it was for physicians in those practices to adopt and use it compared to traditional EMRs, and we anticipate benefits throughout the practice," said Shaun Schuller, administrator at Cascade Orthopaedics.
