Welcome to Wight
Technologies
Wight
Technologies is
a dynamic Healthcare Information Technology solutions company specializing
in transitioning ambulatory care practices to EMR
(Electronic Medical Records) systems.
At Wight Technologies we understand that the conversion to a “Paperless Office” may seem overwhelming. We assure you that the advantages will far exceed the risks. The sooner you transition to an EMR system, the more you have to gain. By 2015 it will no longer be an option, but a government mandated requirement. Get ahead of the game and reap the maximum benefits possible for upgrading early. Allow us to show you how we can help with an initial consultation.
Our
company focuses on 3 core areas:
· Consultations with our
clients as well as in-depth study to determine which
system best meets the needs of
the practice.
· Oversee
the design, implementation, and deployment of the EMR technology (software and hardware)
· Post
launch IT technical support
We take the time
and effort in researching the various certified EMR
systems to best suit the needs of our clients. We then oversee the implementation and
deployment of the software and hardware. After
successful launch of the EMR system, we also provide IT
support in compliance with HIPAA
standards.
DID YOU KNOW...
- More than 25% of all healthcare insurance claims are denied when first presented for payment
- 25% of claims are paper-based and it costs $20-25 manually to process them
- 1.5 trillion claims each year and 30% of those have errors while 15% get lost
- 8% of charts are lost in practices, and $800 billion are wasted per year for unnecessary services
- Today for many physicians, 50% of their patient load is price-controlled by Medicare or Medicaid
Can you afford to be missing out on lost revenue opportunities?
Choosing the right software, vendor and training is critical. Selecting the right software should be based on the practice needs and environment, not features.
Wight Technologies can make the difference.

CCHT CERTIFIES 14 PRODUCTS FOR MEANINGFUL USE
CHICAGO – The Certification Commission for Health Information Technology has certified 14 electronic health record products that pass muster for provider use under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA).
"We believe it will be a challenge for providers who have not yet begun to evaluate products to purchase and implement EHR technology and achieve meaningful use in time for the 2011-2012 incentives," said Alisa Ray, the CCHIT's executive director. "We have received more than 30 applications for our 2011 certification programs – more than half of which are for the comprehensive program – and are announcing new certifications regularly so providers can begin to consider EHR technology that demonstrates compliance with the proposed federal standards."
The CCHIT has now certified 14 products under one of two new programs, the CCHIT Certified 2011 Comprehensive program and the Preliminary ARRA certification program, since their launch on Oct. 7.
