MARKHAM, ON, Sept. 2 /CNW/ -- Certification represents an
opportunity for Nightingale to extend its footprint across the
country MARKHAM, ON, Sept. 2 /CNW/ - Nightingale Informatix
Corporation (TSX-V: NGH) ("Nightingale" or the "Company"), an
application service provider (ASP) of electronic medical records
(EMR) software and related services today announces it has expanded
its base of operations to the province of Saskatchewan.
Nightingale's leading web-native EMR and practice management
solution, Nightingale On Demand recently achieved certification as
an Approved Vendor of the Saskatchewan EMR program, which is
jointly funded through the Saskatchewan Medical Association (SMA)
and the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health. Nightingale was selected
as an Approved Vendor through a request-for-proposal process, and
is one of four funding-eligible EMR solutions being made available
to more than 1,400 physicians in Saskatchewan. Certification was
achieved after completion of extensive conformance testing to
ensure that Nightingale On Demand (NOD) met all core SMA
requirements. "Entering the Saskatchewan market represents an
opportunity for Nightingale to extend its footprint further across
the country," said Sam Chebib, President & CEO, Nightingale.
"Nightingale has already started to execute an aggressive strategy
in an effort to capture a sizeable share of the Saskatchewan
market. We believe that the SMA's funding model will encourage
physicians to realize the full potential of their EMR at an
accelerated pace. Nightingale will work tirelessly with physicians
to ensure their successful transition to Nightingale On Demand." "I
have been using Nightingale On Demand in my clinic for several
years," said Dr. Ronald Katz, North Regina Medical Clinic. "In my
experience, the capabilities it offers as both an EMR and practice
management solution are outstanding. Nightingale's team forms a
relationship with their clients; they understand and respond to the
unique needs of each clinic, which really sets them apart from
other providers. During my transition and even after going live
I've received a consistently high level of support. I encourage
physicians in Saskatchewan to strongly consider Nightingale for
their EMR solution." The SMA funding model provides physicians with
incentives for the early adoption of EMR, including a $1.00 payment
for each visit or consultation service that is submitted under an
approved fee code. Physicians may also be eligible for monthly
payments in the first one to two years of the program, to support
their successful adoption of EMR. "We are pleased to announce
Nightingale On Demand as a certified EMR solution available to the
physicians of Saskatchewan," said Roy Robb, Director of Information
Technology for the SMA. "Nightingale worked with us during all
stages of conformance testing and will be a valuable partner to the
province's EMR program." About Nightingale Nightingale is one of
