Clinical Decision Support System

PQRI Assistant
Integrated with CureMD, the PQRI assistant automatically analyze every patient encounter against PQRI criteria, evaluate if the visit qualifies for reporting under applicable measures and automatically recommend denominators for reporting. This technology virtually eliminates extra efforts to participate in the hundreds of PQRI programs nationwide. It also ensures higher reimbursement rates by payers based on improved quality of care delivered.
"Without this technology, physicians would be burdened by keeping track of PQRI data through older solutions," said Kamal Hashmat, CEO of CureMD Corporation. “few EMR vendors have built-in PQRI reporting capabilities. The bottom line is that PQRI is about survival. If you are not able to demonstrate commitment towards quality, you eventually will be left out of Medicare and other federal funding mechanisms."
