Three surgical practices select SurgiMate ESRM to improve surgical management

Tracking and reporting features are key factors in new clients purchasing ESRM

NEW YORK – NOVEMBER 1, 2010 – SurgiMate, the market leader in surgical management solutions, today announced that three high-volume surgical practices purchased SurgiMate ESRM this past week. The new ESRM clients include Hampton Roads Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine in Newport News, VA, Consulting Ophthalmology, PC in Farmington, CT, and Greensboro Orthopaedic Center in Greensboro, NC.

The Hampton Roads Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine (HROSM) group has six surgeons performing surgery at three different hospitals in Newport News, Virginia. SurgiMate ESRM’s tracking features will trigger reminders that assist surgical coordinators during every step of the surgical booking process. “SurgiMate’s efficient workflow processes and business analytics reports will help us work smarter, not harder!” said Mike Moran, Practice Administrator.

Consulting Ophthalmology has been using SurgiMate Express since 2005. The decision to upgrade to SurgiMate ESRM was instigated by the enhanced searching and tracking capabilities. Coupled with the optimized form generator and dedicated surgical calendar, SurgiMate ESRM will increase Consulting Ophthalmology’s internal transparency and overall performance.

“SurgiMate Express has saved us so much time over the years, automating all the forms which we previously filled out by hand!” said Katie Murray, surgical scheduling manager at Consulting Ophthalmology. “We look forward to transitioning to the new SurgiMate ESRM. Our entire workflow will be transformed!”

Greensboro Orthopaedic Center is the third orthopaedic group in North Carolina to implement SurgiMate since May 2010. With fourteen surgeons performing surgery at three hospitals, the group chose SurgiMate for its powerful business reporting features. The team at Greensboro Orthopaedic Center plan to go live with SurgiMate ESRM during Q1 of 2011.

“SurgiMate has always helped high-volume surgical practices realize operational savings," said Justin Rockman of SurgiMate. "But the new features in ESRM eliminate costly errors and increase revenue."

"SurgiMate ESRM provides critical business functionality that EMR and Practice Management systems simply do not offer," said Heath Golub, Chief Architect of ESRM. "We are thrilled to welcome our new clients to the SurgiMate family.”
