The Market-leading Urology EHR in the Palm of Your Hand

LIVINGSTON, N.J., Feb. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- meridianEMR^®, the market-leader in EHR for Urology, announced today the launch of a native iPhone^® app to complement the meridianEMR system. meridianMobile^® for iPhone combines the rich functionality of the meridianEMR system with the mobility and fluid interactivity of the iPhone. It gives Urologists secure access to their real-time EHR data – right in the palm of their hands.

meridianMobile for iPhone was designed to help Urologists streamline workflow and improve patient care. The app enables them to move seamlessly between the hospital or clinic, office, home, and beyond while maintaining comprehensive, convenient, and HIPAA-compliant access to their most current EHR data. Urologists can retrieve and modify up-to-the-minute patient information, office visits, and appointments. They can also access patient pharmacy information, medication refill alerts, patient photos, billing information, and more.

"Thank you, meridianEMR. This is very good…It is very intuitive and easy to use," commented meridianMobile for iPhone user, Charles M. Lash, MD, Advance Urology and Continence Center of Wauseon, OH.

Since meridianMobile for iPhone is a native app, it has been exclusively optimized for use on the familiar iPhone device Urologists rely on, making the app fast, user-friendly, and powerful. Plus, there is no need to sync the iPhone to the EHR system. With meridianMobile for iPhone, data is kept up-to-date automatically. All data is stored on the Urologist's office EHR, and meridianMobile for iPhone efficiently exchanges current information with it as required.

"We are committed to the development of new products and services to enhance our EHR system. meridianEMR is currently the only Urology-specific EHR to offer a native iPhone app. We recognize the need for this type of mobility in EHR and believe that is the direction of the future," commented Bill Bartlett, meridianEMR Vice President of Technology and Chief Architect of meridianMobile for iPhone.

meridianMobile for iPhone runs on iPhone; iPod touch^® 3G/3GS/4/4S; and/or iPad^®/iPad2, in conjunction with the meridianEMR Version 5.2.3 or higher and a wireless/internet connection. It is available on the App Store(SM). meridianEMR clients can simply purchase and download it directly to their iPhones.

"We are excited to bring innovative health information technology solutions to the market to help Urologists. meridianMobile for iPhone is one of the many product enhancements we plan to deliver this year as part of the Endo/HealthTronics/AMS/UroChartEHR team," announced Michael Custode, CEO, meridianEMR.
