PARAMUS, NJ - Jun 11, 2014 - Advanced Data Systems (ADS)
announced today that MedicsDocAssistant v. 7.0 is certified as a
Silver Quality Solution by Quest Diagnostics under Quests Health
IT Quality Solutions Program (the Program). Quest Diagnostics is
the worlds leading provider of diagnostic information

As a certified Health IT Quality Solution, ADS and
MedicsDocAssistant have been recognized by Quest Diagnostics as
meeting or exceeding advanced industry standards for health IT
quality and for providing a streamlined, interoperable solution
that enables secure clinical laboratory ordering and results
reporting through Quest Diagnostics connectivity solutions.
Quest Diagnostics created the Health IT Quality Solutions
Program to collaborate with providers of electronic health record
(EHR) and other clinical technologies to achieve optimized levels
of clinical and operational quality for the benefit of physician
practices, hospitals and integrated delivery networks. The Program
is designed to maximize data quality and data and business process
interoperability between Quest Diagnostics and select EHR solutions
that meet Quests high standards.
David Barzillai, President of ADS, said, We take pride in
working with Quest Diagnostics and in being able to have our
MedicsDocAssistant EHR attain certification as a Quest Diagnostics
Silver Quality Solution. In addition to that,
MedicsDocAssistant v. 7.0 is certified as a complete EHR for Stage
2 Meaningful Use, and excellent for a wide range of primary care
and specialty practices of any size.
To be eligible for the Program, an EHR solution must have an
approved and commercially viable interface to Quest Diagnostics web
services Data Exchange Service which processes both lab orders and
results.
An EHR solution can then qualify for one of three certification
tiers-Silver, Gold, or Platinum-by meeting an increasingly
stringent and comprehensive set of criteria related to EHR solution
functional capabilities, implementation processes, and other
mutually-beneficial business activity.
Certified vendors have clearly demonstrated their commitment to
helping healthcare providers use technology at the highest levels
of quality and process excellence in order to meet a growing set of
challenges relating to information technology, regulatory
requirements, and industry demands, said Keith C. Drake, Ph.D.,
Quality Solutions Program Executive, Quest Diagnostics. The focus
