MSHA Selects Allscripts’ EHR, PM Solutions

Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) has selected the Allscripts Electronic Health Record (EHR) and Practice Management (PM) solutions for 300 employed and affiliated physicians and mid-level providers, to enhance the quality of patient care, improve patient communications and better manage the cost of care delivery.

Steve Kilgore, president of Blue Ridge, said: The Electronic Health Record is a critical initiative for our organization because it enables us to bring the future of healthcare to patients in our region. Allscripts gives our providers the ability to connect to one another and to other providers throughout the region, leading to further integration, better coordination of care, and ultimately improved outcomes for our patients.

All Blue Ridge physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners will receive the Allscripts solutions, enabling Blue Ridge to join a connected community of caregivers, quickly sharing data for enhanced patient care across the community.

MSHA will also provide the Allscripts Electronic Health Record at a subsidized rate for the 70 physicians of ETSU Physicians and Associates, the group practice of the James H Quillen College of Medicine at East Tennessee State University (ETSU).
