PatientKeeper[R], a leading provider of physician information systems, to improve both its clinical workflows and financial performance. Under the terms of the expansion, PatientKeeper will provide St. Vincent's physicians with both the PatientKeeper Physician Portal and PatientKeeper Charge Capture applications, helping to enhance care, save time, and increase collections.

"PatientKeeper Physician Portal presents me with a comprehensive view of my patients," said Richard Roistacher, MD, Medical Director of the Faculty Practice for Internal Medicine at St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan. "From any web browser, I can now access my patient's medical history, lab tests and results, insurance information and other relevant information, allowing me to deliver the most informed care possible. PatientKeeper saves me a tremendous amount of time and makes it easy for me to stay informed about my patients."

PatientKeeper is designed to support physicians throughout their entire day, across all settings of care. Applications allow physicians to access their patients' electronic records, write prescriptions, enter charges for services, document patient encounters, place orders, and securely send messages to other caregivers - all in a single integrated environment.

St. Vincent's, a major healthcare resource in the greater New York Metropolitan area, introduced PatientKeeper to its internists and inpatient physicians last year. Due to PatientKeeper's physician-intuitive design and personalization capability, additional physicians quickly expressed interest in using the system. Today, over 200 physicians at St. Vincent's Hospital Manhattan are using PatientKeeper software, including:

* PatientKeeper Physician Portal provides a comprehensive, longitudinal view of a patient's entire medical history from any Web browser

* PatientKeeper Charge Capture enables clinicians to quickly and easily record charges for services they deliver - at the point of care, in the office, or anywhere in between

* PatientKeeper Mobile Clinical Results delivers access to essential patient clinical information - anytime, anywhere with PDAs and Smartphones
