West Virginia University Eye Institute Enters 5th Year Using SRS Chart Manager™

MONTVALE, NJ / MORGANTOWN, WV – June 27, 2005 While there will be no cake or candles, West Virginia University Eye Institute is now celebrating its decision more than 4 years ago to go paperless with SRS Software, the nation’s leading digital chart management company.  A thriving ophthalmology practice on the medical campus of West Virginia University, the Eye Institute credits SRS Chart Manager with numerous practice management workflow improvements and enhanced patient services since it moved into its new, larger facility in Morgantown.

“Over 4 years ago, with 125 system users and more than 20,000 active charts, we sought a technology partner that could provide quick electronic access to our medical records, resolving our time-consuming chart availability dilemma and storage space issues,” explains Sue Campbell, Clinic Manager, WVU Eye Institute.

Moving to its new, larger facility increased patient volume and placed new demands on the professional and support staff.  However, with SRS in place, the Eye Institute met these challenges with more efficient workflow processes and without hiring additional employees.

“Each aspect of practice management is easier since SRS,” explains Ms. Campbell. “Patient care has also improved because we are all more responsive to their questions and concerns. With SRS, we have immediate electronic access to the information we need for following up with referring physicians, prescription requests, lab reports and insurance forms. The entire office runs more smoothly since we partnered with SRS.”

“Our solution is simple, affordable, physician friendly and easy to learn,” asserts SRS CEO, Evan Steele.

"SRS Chart Manager achieved our goals without burdening the practice financially, impeding the manner in which our physicians practice medicine or compromising the level of patient care.”
