New Haven, Connecticut and Orange, California (PRWEB) July 15, 2010
Chart Links, a provider of rehabilitation
workflow management software, announces the implementation of its electronic therapy documentation and
scheduling system by a team of 25 audiologists, speech therapists and pediatric occupational therapists at
Providence Speech and Hearing Center, a not-for-profit and leading provider of services to the speech and hearing
impaired of Orange County, California.
"The government is promoting the advancement of information technology to cut costs in the healthcare
industry," says Linda H. Smith, CEO of Providence Speech and Hearing Center. "By implementing Chart Links'
electronic medical record at Providence, we're an active participant in that cost-cutting initiative. As healthcare
continues to reform, Providence will be technically equipped to better service its patient population."
Providence served over 29,000 appointments in 2009 to over 5,659 unique patients.
"The implementation has allowed Providence to gain efficiencies and see more patients, as well as to gather and
monitor our clinical outcomes," says Smith. "The staff here at Providence has responded well to the transition
and is looking forward to even more advantageous results in the coming months."
Chart Links software streamlines all of the daily tasks associated with a patient's physical therapy, occupational
therapy, speech language pathology, or audiology visits. The software manages adult and pediatric therapy
treatment by automating evaluations, flow sheets, progress notes, patient education, clinical correspondence, and
plans of care. It also manages payer compliance, provider reimbursement, outcomes reporting, administrative
functions, business intelligence and enterprise productivity.
