AcerMed Releases Proprietary Suite of Software Products

Intuitively developed, AcerMed EMR, PM and Scheduler modules are well received in medical offices nationwide


IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 17, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Irvine, California-based AcerMed, Inc. proudly announces the release of its proprietary suite of software products: AcerMed EMR, AcerMed PM and AcerMed Scheduler. This recent release has been followed by remarkable healthcare industry acceptance.

Since its founding in 2001, AcerMed has been reselling third party EMR, PM and Scheduling software to automate workflow of medical offices nationwide. To better fulfill its goals and objectives of offering the best of class in workflow automation software to the medical community, AcerMed made the challenging decision to develop its independent and proprietary software solution.

Listening to its large client base and evaluating their unmet needs, as well as following the industry's demand for more up-to-date features and added functionalities, AcerMed started developing its own state-of-the-art software from the ground up based on the latest Microsoft technology including C # language and .NET environment, meeting XML standards. AcerMed's development team consists of the best in the industry, including graduates of USC, Stanford and Berkeley, with outstanding work experience in some leading software development companies, including Microsoft.

The result is an intuitively developed product that is powerful and scalable, yet consistent throughout the modules and easy-to-use. It incorporates years of really listening to the healthcare providers as to what they want in their workflow automation software and what future needs the industry will demand.

Since its general release in July 2005, AcerMed's suite of software products has been received at a remarkable rate and is under use in several states.

AcerMed is experiencing a record-breaking 4th quarter and anticipates a record-breaking year with a triple digit growth rate in 2006.

AcerMed accepts the challenge, any day, of being compared to other EMR, PM or Scheduling products on the market, side by side, and coming out the winner.

As a software developer, AcerMed is now able to take advantage of opportunities to establish business alliances that the company did not previously have as a reseller. AcerMed has already joined several groups that shape the future of IT use in healthcare. This will position AcerMed at the forefront and make it possible for the company to learn about standards that a leading EHR vendor should adhere to. Additionally, AcerMed is now able to respond to upcoming needs of the market or regulatory issues and incorporate them into its suite of software products well ahead of some other software developers. The benefit to the end-users is that their investment will always stay on the leading edge.

AcerMed team is proud of how well its products have been received in the market and is moving strong ahead with its commitment to deliver a leading edge suite of software products to the healthcare industry nationwide.
