Acrendo Software Inc. Sees First Quarter Growth of 300%

Electronic medical record (EMR) software developer sees record growth with new products.

San Diego, Calif. (PRWEB) April 26, 2006 -- Acrendo Software, Inc., a leading provider of electronic medical record (EMR) & medical practice management software, announced record growth of over 300% in the first quarter of 2006. Additionally, Acrendo has introduced many new features to its popular product A.I.med EMR & practice management software.

Acrendo added new users throughout the United States in several different medical specialties. To support the company’s growth Acrendo increased its staff by 60% during the quarter by adding professionals in technical support, product training, development and sales.

President Bush asked congress in his 2006 State of the Union Address, to “make wider use of electronic records and other health information technology to help control costs and reduce dangerous medical errors.” This has led to increased discussions throughout many state governments in regards to making electronic medical records mandatory for all healthcare organizations.

In the first quarter Acrendo added a new SOAP note generator to their EMR to pave the way for new innovative features. This new SOAP note feature helps doctors write notes faster and allows for extensive customization. Acrendo also added off-site EMR support, enabling providers to access patient records without being connected to a network.

“We are very excited about this tremendous start to 2006 and are expecting even higher quarterly growth in the months to come,” says Chris Ferguson, Vice President, Sales. “We are seeing incredible growth in sales due to many new product enhancements, our new extremely competitive value pricing, and newly implemented marketing strategies. The industry as a whole is seeing unprecedented growth as healthcare providers are looking to electronic medical records more than ever to improve their bottom line and meet new electronic standards set forth by both state and federal governments. In short, we are truly experiencing the EMR revolution”.

A.I.med 6.0 EMR & practice management software is available directly from Acrendo and through regional representatives. Integrated practice management and electronic medical records (EMR) with installation, training and support can be purchased for as little as $7500.
