Adapting a generalized EHR system to your practice as a specialist can be time-consuming. It also usually ends up leaving you without many of the features you need to make EHR worthwhile for your practice. If you're a Podiatrist, and you're interested in implementing an EHR system in your practice, you undoubtedly want to have the best Podiatry EHR software available.
Doctors who use Podiatry EMR software are advancing patient care and putting forth a blueprint for greater patient education. When it 
comes to a medical condition, it is important for patients to see, understand and fully comprehend the big picture. From Achilles tendonitis and bunions to gout, Diabetic foot and plantar fasciitis, it is believed there are over 60 common podiatry complaints. Podiatry software makes educating patients on foot care and prevention plans easier. In fact, some podiatry complaints come with a high risk of developing ulcers and infections, so it is imperative that patients understand the symptoms and treatments associated with their medical condition.
With encouragement from the federal government, increasing numbers of hospitals and medical clinics are adopting electronic health record (EHR) systems and anticipating the promised incentive payments. In May 2011, the first batch of incentives was distributed. As it turns out, podiatrists earned a surprisingly high portion of the payments; they made up about 1.5 percent of Medicare providers, but they received roughly 12 percent of the incentive payments.
