SAN JOSE, Calif. - (Business Wire) Bizmatics Inc. is pleased to present this certification of achievement to its strong customer base of providers currently running PrognoCIS EMR.

In addition to electronic prescription and refills, PrognoCIS customers can now enquire medication eligibility for patients, have formulary support and benefits, get medication history from PBM and send e-prescription activity report to Surescripts. This will provide safety, accuracy and efficiency of the prescribing process. Availability of prescription benefit information at the point of care will allow prescribers to determine the most clinically appropriate and cost effective medication for the patient. PrognoCIS is now a qualified e-prescribing system and providers using complete e-prescription module in PrognoCIS will be able to benefit from CMS e-prescribing incentives.

"Our run at the big time has begun to bare fruit for the Medical Practices that put their faith in PrognoCIS. This certification demonstrates the continued efforts put forth by our team. It's not just about winning new accounts, but taking care of the current customers as well. Even in economic downturn in 2009, Bizmatics recorded strong growth by providing innovative product enhancements and customer service," says Vinay Deshpande, CEO of the Silicon Valley based Electronic Medical Records company.

The balance of 2010 up to January 2011 the physicians that successfully send eRX through a conduit such as Surescripts will enjoy an additional 2% points paid as an incentive to continue this behavior.

In 2011, however, the reward for e-prescribing will begin to phase out, while a penalty for not e-prescribing begins in 2012. The e-prescribing bonus payment will be 1 percent in 2011 and 2012, and 0.5 percent in 2013. The penalty for not e-prescribing will be a reduction in Medicare reimbursement by 1 percent in 2012, 1.5 percent in 2013, and 2 percent in 2014.
