gloStream to Integrate Microsoft Office 2010 into gloEMR

Online, September 21, 2010 (Newswire.com) - ATLANTA, Georgia - gloStream, maker of gloEMR, gloPM and gloSuite - today announced that it will integrate Microsoft Office 2010 into gloEMR upon the general availability of the new Office suite. The announcement was made during the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Conference.

gloStream solutions are built on the .NET Framework, leverage the power of Microsoft SQL Server and come standard with Microsoft Office embedded within the application. The outcome for gloStream's physician clients are solutions that are powerful, familiar, easy to learn and use, and fully customizable.

"From our founding we've been dedicated to Microsoft technology because it has always allowed us to build unique functionality into our products that can truly impact quality at the point of care," said gloStream CEO Mike Sappington. "For example, our dashboard gives doctors single-click access to every piece of patient information in the chart and all of our templates are built using Microsoft Office. This means doctors can dictate, type or even draw into their documents. The versatility and customizability of Microsoft technology is unmatched."

gloStream's product development teams are working with Microsoft to integrate Microsoft Office 2010 functionality and develop future versions of gloEMR that give doctors and their staff the tools and resources needed to realize even greater levels of productivity and efficiency.

"The integration of gloEMR with Microsoft Office allows physicians to access their EMR using the familiar tools and user-friendly interface of the Microsoft platform," said Chris Sullivan, U.S. health provider industry solutions director, Microsoft. "We're pleased to be working with gloStream to provide technologies that help physicians increase productivity and ultimately improve the delivery of care."
