All VipaHealth applications are Web-native meaning that we design our applications
from the bottom up to work over the Internet unlike other pseudo called
web-enabled software. Therefore, there are no expensive or cumbersome software
installation necessary on your computers. Our applications run securely
over the Internet 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. All you need is Internet
access, computer with terminal or a web-enabled device and you are ready
to go. For a faster connection and higher efficiency using our applications
we strongly recommend a broadband connection.
Our EMR and billing Solutions are truly a Software
as a service(SaaS) model. This
means a software application delivery model where a software vendor develops
a web-native software application and hosts and operates (either independently
or through a third-party) the application for use by its customers over
the Internet. Customers do not pay for owning the software itself but rather
for using it. They use it through an API accessible over the Web and often
written using Web Services. The term SaaS has become the industry preferred
term, generally replacing the earlier terms Application Service Provider
(ASP), On-Demand and "Utility computing".
These are some of the advantages of using a VipaHealth solutions
over having a software based installation. All these benefits are provided
to you at no extra cost:
No large upfront costs. Unlike other EMR’s
or Billing softwares that are sold today, deployment of a VipaHealth application
in your office does not require a large initial investment. Rather, our
pricing scheme is based on a low, per month fee which entitles you to
unlimited use of the system. Therefore your practice would avoid the risk
of buying a system which would be obsolete by the time it is paid off.
No downtime. We do not shut down your practice
or disrupt your office workflow as some on site server-based installations
require. Since our applications are all web-native, our deployment simply
entails giving you secure access to your practice on our servers. This process
takes place quickly and efficiently to ensure minimal disruption to your
business.
No expensive or stringent hardware requirements.
The only hardware requirement is an internet connected computer with terminal
or web-enabled device. Multiple configuration schemes are available depending
on your practice work flow and layout. There are no concerns about servers,
or expensive back-up systems since we provide that for you as well.
All upgrades included in monthly fee. There
are no additional charges for upgrades made to the system.
Real-time access to the systemat
anytime. Whether in the office or not you can access our applications
from any computer or web-enabled device with Internet connection.
Prior to any new version release, you will be
notified about what new features you will be receiving. Upgrades
are then made public on non-working hours usually over the weekend. There
is absolutely NO DOWNTIME to your practice or office. Any additional training
may be done on site or over the phone.
VipaHealth provides maintenance, support and backup
at no additional charge. Maintenance of the system and servers
as well as system redundancy and backup is done at our site.
HIPAA compliance. VipaHealth continually
monitors for new HIPAA guidelines and updates patient privacy, security
and hardware requirements (encryption, etc.) As they become available, we
make the necessary updates and pass them on to our clients.
