TSI Healthcare Selects Local Practice, Tidewater Physicians Multispecialty Group, as "Circle of Excellence Award" Winners

CHAPEL HILL, N.C., April 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TSI Healthcare, a national leader in the sales and support of customized healthcare information technology, celebrates Tidewater Physicians Multispecialty Group's selection as winners of the annual "Circle of Excellence Award." Established in 2009, the "Circle of Excellence" recognizes practices that have positioned themselves as leaders in Healthcare IT and champions of improved patient care through the use of Electronic Health Records and Practice Management systems.  The award focuses on key indicators that measure efficiency, regulatory compliance, and delivery of quality care through the use of technology.

Director of IT Brett Brickey from Tidewater Physicians Multispecialty Group commented, "Technology is quickly becoming the cornerstone of improved patient care.  As our healthcare system continues a dramatic change, our group has leveraged EHR software to provide a better patient experience. EHRs assist with improving safety, increasing communication, focus on prevention, all while safeguarding privacy.  However, software is only as good as your ability to use it. The 'Circle of Excellence' award serves as an example of TSI Healthcare's dedication to our practice.  It allows our group to benchmark our system use, encouraging staff to master basic functionality and try new features. Ultimately, using EHR helps us provide a higher level of care to our patients."

TSI Healthcare's President and CEO, David Dickson Jr. adds, "Tidewater Physicians Multispecialty Group sets a high benchmark for other groups across the nation.  Their dedication is clear across the entire team, from physicians to their expert IT and support staff.  We are proud to work alongside practices like Tidewater Physicians Multispecialty Group, who are seeking to bring healthcare to the twenty-first century."
