Obstetrics is extremely data intensive. Every visit involves the documentation of many numerical parameters in addition to the history and physical. The gestational age must be determined for each encounter and as a time stamp for every lab test and imaging procedure. The specialty must also have a system of alerts and reminders - not only to insure that clinical tasks are performed, but that they are done at the correct stage in the pregnancy. This is essential to quality obstetrical care.

Gynecology, like many specialties, requires the documentation of multiple procedures, health maintenance functions, and extensive consultations involving sensitive areas such as infertility, pre-conception, and cancer screening. And all of this is in addition to recording thorough primary care services.

VersaSuite’s OB/GYN specialty template is an outstanding solution that addresses all of these requirements and more. Once a patient’s due date is established, all visits and all labs are “time stamped” by gestational age. If the EDD is revised, the relevant gestational ages change automatically. Risk assessment and lab milestones are readily addressed, insuring the practice of quality prenatal care consistent with the ACOG prenatal form content. And the GYN portion is a fully functional specialty EMR that integrates seamlessly with the prenatal module.
