EncounterPRO was judged one of the top three solutions in the category of Ambulatory Care--Clinical/Patient Information Systems. ISAH finalists were selected from among hundreds of independent software vendors offering software solutions using Microsoft technologies. Winners of each of the eight categories will be announced at a special awards presentation at Microsoft Healthcare User Group (MS-HUG) Exhibition on Oct. 13, 1998 in Orlando, Florida.

Jim Copenhaver, JMJ CEO, credits EncounterPRO's award to product usability and workflow. "Physicians seeking to implement a CPR need an application that is easy to learn, easy to use and that improves patient care along with office efficiency," he stated.

Norcross pediatrician Dr. Jeffrey D. Cooper beta-tested EncounterPRO for fourteen months in his solo practice, beginning in December, 1995. In 1996, Dr. Cooper reopened his closed practice, added 2,000 new patients, and increased his billings by $200,000. In 1997, Dr. Cooper added 400 more patients to his practice and increased his billings by another $120,000. He predicts additional increases this year. Charting in his office has been paperless for over 22 months.

Dr. Cooper was featured on the January 1998 cover of Health Management Technology as winner of one of the trade magazine's first place "What Works" awards for 1997.A recent install illustrates the application's usability. At McDonough Pediatrics in McDonough, Ga., headed by Dr. Sakar Sankaran, the entire staff was trained within four hours. JMJ allotted one week for the staff to become familiar with the application at their own speed. On the following Monday at 8:30 a.m., the office went on-line with EncounterPRO, according to Dee McGhee, office manager. Two hours later, the two physicians on duty stopped dictating for transcription. More than 150 patients, including 40 telephone encounters, were charted that first day. On Wednesday, three days after going on-line, patient charting went paperless.

Besides serving pediatrics, the core product is now being configured to the other primary care specialties, according to Mr. Copenhaver. JMJ will release an Internal Medicine configuration in November. Releases in Internal Medicine and Ob/Gyn will soon follow. In addition, JMJ will soon offer a release in Urology.

Physicians can use EncounterPRO either as a stand-alone system or integrate it with a billing/scheduling application.

Founded in 1994, JMJ is a privately held company located in Marietta, GA. EncounterPRO currently serves over 170 users at 10 sites throughout the Southeast. JMJ is listed in the September edition of Advance for Health Information Executives as one of the top 20 CPRs of the industry.
