MMRF NEWS --
NEW ORLEANS, LA, Oct 25, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- MMRGlobal, Inc.
(OTCBB: MMRF) (www.mmrglobal.com) today announced plans with Kodak to deploy a
new version of the MMR Pro system (www.mmrprovideos.com) operating through a
proprietary customized interface on the new KODAK Scan Station Pro 550 at Booth
1709 at the Medical Group Management Association (MGMA) Annual Conference.
MMRPro (www.mmrpro.com) is supported by Kodak's transactional scanning
solution(s) to help physician offices and other small practices get a firm
handle on converting patient billing, forms and medical charts into digital,
easily managed and accessed files. The new KODAK Scan Station Pro 550
incorporates the power of KODAK Capture Pro Software to enhance direct
connection to MMRPro Software, MMRGlobal's secure, web-based document management
and imaging solution. This enables easy capture and access to paper-based
patient documents and charts with the utmost security -- extremely important to
healthcare professionals and their patients.
"The MMRPro software solution directly addresses the document imaging and
management needs of small medical offices, group practices, surgery centers and
small hospitals that rely heavily on using transactions-based processes and
forms, including patient billing, prescription data, and medical charts," said
Robert H. Lorsch, Chairman and CEO of MMRGlobal. "Using MMRPro today makes it
easier for physicians to ultimately transition to a full-blown certified EMR
system. This helps doctors qualify for stimulus dollars from the government and,
additionally, from MMR's proprietary stimulus program which can reward
physicians with payments that could be far in excess of the government's
stimulus program."
MMRPro also includes an e-prescribing module and an integrated patient portal,
enabling patients to have timely access to their personal health information
through MyMedicalRecords' secure personal health records technology
(www.mymedicalrecords.com). Patients can quickly and conveniently upload their
health information to an MMR account in real time using any Internet-connected
device.
"Meaningful use of electronic health records requires doctors to make personal
health information available to their patients through a personal health record
or patient portal by 2014. We believe that our patented product offering will
exceed HIPAA requirements and is more user-friendly than any other PHR available
today," added Lorsch.
The transactional KODAK Scan Station Pro 550 features a customized solution
using the capture and output capabilities found in KODAK Capture Pro Software,
including barcodes, OCR, MICR and others. The new scanner incorporates an
intuitive GUI touch panel allowing users to work seamlessly with the MMRPro
Software, enabling the user to scan patient-related healthcare documents
directly into MMRPro with the push of a single button. The MMRPro Software also
allows updates for patient files via fax, e-mail or telephone messages, through
se cure, staff-based permissions.
"The solution with MMR is an example of how Kodak works with its network of
Independent Software Vendor partners to create strategic, specific applications
that do more at the point of capture," said Brian Bagan, Director, Business
Development, Document Imaging, United States and Canada, Kodak's Business
Solutions and Services Group. "Medical offices and other industries can use
transactional scanning solutions to help automate their internal business
processes, as well as improve the information sharing practices across offices."
