Little Spurs Pediatric chooses CodoniXnotes for three offices
Boerne, Texas – September 17, 2007 Little Spurs is a Pediatric Urgent Care clinic with three locations in South Texas. It provides wide-ranging pediatric urgent care services, including physical exams, x-rays, laceration and fracture care, IV fluids, and a wide range of immunizations, including flu and school required immunizations.
After researching various electronic medical records, Dr. Alicia Tezel, Medical Director of Little Spurs, found that most EMRs were not designed for an urgent care environment. Trying out CodoniXnotes using the test drive on its website and then signing up for the no obligation free trial, she quickly found that CodoniXnotes was in fact designed with urgent care workflow in mind. Dr. Tezel said, “The CodoniXnotes tracker board gives us easy and intuitive administration of patients and their status that everyone in the office can view. In addition charting with CodoniXnotes allows all procedures and examinations to be fully documented and automatically coded. This combined with an automated CMS audit ensures that our E & M levels are accurately and appropriately calculated for billing.”
After trying out the application in a real urgent care environment using the free trial offer, Little Spurs decided to implement the CodoniXnotes application at one of their three offices. After bringing the system up in the first clinic and using it for several months, Little Spurs then implemented CodoniXnotes at their other two offices. Dr. Tezel said, “CodoniX made the purchase and use of an EMR extremely easy. Because of their method of delivery, we were able to try the application before implementing it in our three clinics. Once the decision was made to use CodoniX we were able to quickly implement the system at all of our clinics in a short period of time.”
CodoniX President and CEO, Bill Boles, said that “We are very pleased that Little Spurs has chosen CodoniXnotes for its Pediatric Urgent Care Centers. The CodoniXnotes application has in depth pediatric content built into the application as well as a workflow that matches the unique needs of urgent care facilities. The success of CodoniXnotes at Little Spurs shows the value of using an EMR that is designed for use in urgent care clinics.”
