eClinicalWorks secured contracts with 37 CHCS and FQHCS

eClinicalWorks, a market leader in ambulatory clinical systems announced that the company has secured contracts with 37 Community Health Centers (CHCs) and Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) across the country in the past few months. The majority of these centers have been implemented quickly after contract signing. eClinicalWorks' unified electronic medical record (EMR) and practice management (PM) system allows CHCs and FQHCs to streamline processes and promote patient care.

"Community Health Centers and Federally Qualified Health Centers offer quality care to patients with significant reporting requirements," said Girish Kumar Navani, CEO and co-founder of eClinicalWorks. "Starting about four years ago, we have enriched our products to meet the unique needs of these centers and hold periodic roundtables with these customers to ensure that our product is still one of the most ideal solutions in the market," he added.

As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), the Recovery Act Capital Improvement Program (CIP) will provide about $851 million in grants to upgrade and expand CHCs. It is anticipated that more than 650 centers will use the funds to purchase new equipment or health information technology systems, and nearly 400 health centers will adopt and expand the use of electronic health records.
