Does Your Office Need to go Paperless?

If you are a Medical Office and you haven't yet setup a computerized paperless, electronic health record system, then the answer is YES!

AND... Omega will be there for you every step of the way. Start managing your records electronically. Omega's full service process will insure you get the proper software, hardware and network setup that meets the government requirements to take your practice paperless.    

The adoption of the electronic health records (EHRs) system must be embraced by medical offices by the year 2015. This requirement, set into motion by the Federal Government, is being supported with $27 billion dollars in funds being expended over the next five years, mainly disbursed to those medical offices that "go paperless" and can meet the proper Meaningful Use requirements the government has mandated.

If you install an EMR (Electronic Medical Records) system during 2012, each practitioner that has purchased the system may be eligible for the complete $44,000 incentive rebate (paid out over 5 years).  This incentive goes down each year, until the year of 2017.  At this point the incentive goes away and those offices that haven't complied must bear the full burden of this cost.  If you are not paperless by the year 2015, penalties are also imposed that will decrease the amount of medicare and medicaid reimbursements you receive from the Federal Government.  Please review the chart below to see the incentive schedule.

After installation is complete, the practitioner must meet “Meaningful Use” criteria to receive the governments incentive reimbursement.

Our process is simple.

  • Omega will perform a free network evaluation to determine if your current system can handle the software requirements.
  • If you require a hardware update, Omega will spec the hardware, install it and train you on all new hardware and operating systems.
  • Omega will coordinate the installation of the software and schedule the proper training for all of your employees.
  • All of your current forms that help you manage your practice will be duplicated electronically so there is no new paperwork that needs to be learned.
  • gloStreams solutions provide you with all the reporting tools to help you meet Meaningful Use incentives mandated by the Federal Government.
  • Omega can setup and monitor an effective network monitoring and Backup Disaster Recovery (BDR) system to insure your practice continues to run smoothly and effectively.
  • Omega’s monitoring allows us to spot early signs of trouble, take actions to prevent problems from occurring.  Then remotely or with on-site support services we’ll get your network up & running quickly.
  • Most software companies require you to purchase their software upfront, then recover your costs through the Federal Incentive Program.  Omega can setup a purchase or leasing program that can match the payouts of the government incentives, minimizing the impact to your cash flow.
  • We are local.  When you call us, You get us.


We believe in the gloStream product and it is our recommended software solution.   But, if you have selected an alternative software vendor, we want you to know that Omega can set up and support your network, then help you navigate the software installation and other administrative tasks required to properly manage a safe, secure network.
