International Oncology Network (ION) has entered into an agreement with Altos Solutions that gives access to OncoEMR, Altos Solutions’ electronic medical records (EMR) system.
The company claims that web-based design and efficient processes of OncoEMR reduce the cost of technology for the practice. The system also allows oncologists and their staff secure access to patient information from any location. Additionally, the program’s charge-capturing and expense-tracking capabilities allow OncoEMR the ability to increase practice revenue.
Mark Santos, executive vice president and general manager of ION, said: “OncoEMR will play a substantial role in acclimating the ION oncology practices to electronic medical records. It will provide a technologically sophisticated way for the oncology practices to get a complete view of day-to-day operations.”
John Willey, president of Altos Solutions, said: “Partnering with ION and providing its membership with access to OncoEMR is a great example of how physician service providers and technology developers can work together to play a small role in advancing patient care. We’re extremely proud to establish a relationship with the clear market leader in ION and look forward to working with the company to support the success of community oncologists.”
