Testimonials & Quotes
"In a survey of physicians using EMR... 68 per cent of physicians said their patient safety had improved, 62 per cent said continuity of care improved and 57 per cent reported an increase in the quality of care"
Survey results published by "ComputerWorld Canada" 07-02-2009 as reproduced by EMR IDG News Service.
"The key decision to use Edge centered on the ability to customize the assessment screens which allowed us to collect and store data that was relevant to our practice. We did not want to be locked into a 'totally canned environment'. Like all of us, we all have our own quirks of habits. Edge has done a great job to be receptive to our unique needs and build them into updates..."
