Misys Healthcare Systems Chief Executive Officer Tom Skelton issues the following statement: "Misys supports Dr. David Brailer's Framework for Strategic Action with particular emphasis on the automation of physician offices, the key in our view to sharing patient information and interoperability among community providers. Misys, whose focus has been on connecting all venues of care across the community - physicians' office, hospitals and home care agencies - believes that information technology solutions can dramatically impact care quality, error prevention, cost reductions and patient satisfaction improvements. America is ready for the reality of electronic patient records. We will continue our efforts to implement the vision of electronic records across the community in line with President Bush's mandate, Secretary Thompson's commitment and Dr. David Brailer's specific programs."
