ASG Collaborates With CTGHS, Removes Top Barriers to Physicans’ EMR Adoption

ASG Software Solutions, the originator of ASG’s Business Service Portfolio™ (BSP) and a worldwide leader in business solutions for global enterprises, today announced that it has forged a partnership with leading healthcare IT consulting firm CTG HealthCare Solutions (CTGHS) to facilitate the implementation of its Web-based electronic medical record (EMR) solution, ASG-MedAppz®.

Two of the most common concerns physicians have about EMR systems are the risks and costs involved in transitioning to a new EMR system. ASG addresses these adoption hurdles through its new partnership with CTGHS, which will provide expert on-site implementation and training for ASG-MedAppz customers.

Because ASG-MedAppz is a SaaS-based (Software as a Service) solution, its deployment is already much faster, simpler, and less expensive than hardware-laden, heavily configured EMR solutions. Even with the ease of ASG-MedAppz’s Internet-based EMR system, physicians may still hesitate to adopt EMRs because of apprehensions about lost productivity and income during the transition period. ASG addresses these concerns by facilitating its ASG-MedAppz implementation and training process through its partnership with CTGHS, a specialized division of CTG with 40 years of IT consulting experience and an ISO 9001:2000 certification.
