CYRAMED: Overview - Functionality

Imaging module
CYRAMED has its own Imaging module to allow the scanning of any paper documentation related to the patient directly into the appropriate sections of the system for immediate access. These scanned documents can then be reviewed and edited by the staff as desired including routing internally, faxed, or emailed.

Task Manager
CYRAMEDs' unique Task Manager allows you to assign important patient related activity such as radiology and lab orders to support staff and other departments. These activities are user, date, and time stamped and stored in the patients activity log so there is always a "paper trail" without the paper as it relates to the assignment to others within your practice for patient care.

Fax Management
CYRAMED supports the receipt of faxes digitally which can then be routed to staff for acknowledgment and sign off before being dropped straight into the patient’s record. All of the documentation and encounter data can also be sent out of the patient record to any fax machine.

Coding
The Ingenix powered coding module supplied with CYRAMED Professional and CYRAMED Expert is the code books on your screen! It provides all current and relevant E&M, ICD-9, ICD-10, CPT and HCPCS code sets and descriptions complete with CMS fee schedules and policy. LMRP data, NCD data, cross code references, CCI’s, and patient related compliance edits.

Hl7 Compliant
CYRAMED is a complete Health Level 7 compliant system allowing the standard interface to practice management systems and other applications utilized within your practice. The HL7 message format supports the exchange of clinical data allowing scheduling, patient information, and billing codes to be automatically transferred to other systems or to have that information imported into CYRAMED.

Inventory and Materials Management
CYRAMED in Pre Op and the OR allows for scheduled surgery inventory items to be listed for assembly and compiled at point of care. CYRAMED is also capable of managing Surgeon and OR room specific preferences. Just in Time (JIT) adjustments and additions can be made in real time “on the fly” at point of care as needed and your facilities available inventory, and procedure specific costing has all been instantly updated! Standard Inventory Management features like Item Master File, automatic stop drop levels, automatic PO generation, Vendor preferences and contract management, and patient specific costing are also available.

PACS support for storing image files
Images from Radiology labs or devices (such as X-Ray, MRI, Ultrasound, Endoscopy cameras, etc.) can be drag and dropped straight into a patients record. They can then be sized and manipulated, with text or ink capabilities for reference purposes or notation.

Custom form templates
CYRAMED is the only system that allows you to design EHR forms and templates to emulate your current encounter flow process. The CYRAMED Form Designer can emulate paper encounter forms which are familiar to the practice staff. This allows the implementation of CYRAMED to go smoothly as the charts appear as they always have utilizing the same sections and front to back forms and templates as before. Patient encounters go quicker due to drop down, tick box, and radio button menus replacing the need to write while retaining the appearance of the original form.

EPrescribing
CYRAMED has a unique digital prescription module complete with a drug database. The CYRAMED Expert Edition will even support, Drug to Drug, Drug to Herb, Drug to Food, Drug to Lifestyle, Drug to Allergy interactions, Drug Contraindications/Health Issues, Drug Pregnancy Ratings, Drug to Lab indications, Dose Checking, Patient Education Handouts, and Duplicate Therapy checking.

HIPAA Compliant Log
CYRAMED’s activity log for each patients file keeps track of staff activity while working in the patient’s record. You will always have a record of who did what, when, where, and how while working with a patient file. The log displays staff print activity, fax activity, edit activity, form add activity, task activity, message activity, copying activity, and much more!

Lab interfaces
CYRAMED supports EDI ordering and result retrieval from National Lab companies such as LabCorp and Quest. Interfaces to other labs may also be available.

Chart Check out function
CYRAMED is the ONLY system with the ability to allow providers to “check out” a copy of the patients record to a tablet or laptop PC and take it with them offsite for an encounter or charting purposes. CYRAMED Chart Check out allows you to make hospital rounds with all of your patient files at your fingertips including blank encounter forms, scanned documentation, templates, hospital charge slips, EPrescribing capabilities, Printing capabilities, and full editing to all information in the patient’s record. When back at the office simply login and sync, and all of your changes to the master copy of the record are automatically saved!

Record Requisition fulfillment
One of the most time consuming functions for staff in Medical Records management is the fulfillment of Record Request under subpoena or by claims adjusters. CYRAMED allows you to extract a copy of the “pages” or the entire record of any patient with the click of a button to be encrypted and password protected so it may be emailed as a single file or fax. You may fill a third parties request for a patient record while you are still on the phone with them!

Messaging
CYRAMED has a unique internal secure messaging system which supports patient related message activity tracking patient calls and call backs while storing the messages and activity in the patients record. staff to staff messaging throughout the day in real time.
