Patterson Dental unveils Eaglesoft Clinician

Patterson Dental has introduced Eaglesoft Clinician, an electronic health record (EHR) software designed to help dental offices qualify for federal incentive payments.

Patterson partnered with Emdeon, a provider of revenue and payment cycle management and clinical information exchange solutions, to develop Eaglesoft Clinician, which has already earned EHR ambulatory certification, according to the company.

The designation officially deems the software capable of enabling providers to qualify for funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

Tested and certified under the Drummond Group's Electronic Health Records Office of the National Coordinator Authorized Testing and Certification Body (ONC-ATCB) program, the EHR software is 2011/2012 compliant in accordance with the criteria adopted by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Drummond Group's certification program tests and certifies that EHRs meet the meaningful use criteria for either eligible provider or hospital technology. In turn, healthcare providers using the EHR systems of certified vendors are qualified to receive federal stimulus monies upon demonstrating meaningful use of the technology.

The program is available now to users of Eaglesoft practice management software and will be fully interfaced with the upcoming version of the software, Eaglesoft 17.
