CARROLLTON, Ga., Aug. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Greenway Medical Technologies Inc., a leading provider of a single-database, integrated electronic health record (EHR), practice management and interoperability solution, today announced its 11th consecutive fiscal year of positive growth. Greenway(R) ended fiscal year 2009 on June 30, 2009 (FY09) having increased sales bookings by 38 percent compared to FY08 and 88 percent compared to FY07. Greenway closed FY09 with more than 1,100 medical practices and 27,000 healthcare providers and professionals contracted to use its fully integrated EHR, PrimeSuite(R), to streamline their clinical, financial and administrative workflows.
Additional highlights from FY09 stemmed from Greenway's consistent leadership and guidance in helping to shape the health IT (HIT) portion of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). Greenway executives, including newly re-elected chairman of the HIMSS EHR Association, Justin Barnes, testified before federal agencies to help create the definition of "meaningful use" which, upon finalization, will play a key role in determining the financial incentives physicians may receive under ARRA for adopting certified EHRs. Greenway officials also testified before the President's administration to help create the certification standards that EHR providers will be required to meet to ensure that their products can be meaningfully used at the point of care by physicians and other eligible professionals.
