The APAC EMR-EHR market is in the growth phase with healthcare providers rapidly moving towards digitization. These healthcare providers are looking for ideal solutions that can fulfill their requirements. Despite such growth, the industry is facing various challenges. According to Girish Mohata, the Founder and CEO of Easy Clinic, few pressing challenges faced by industry players of EMR- EHR are the lack of standards for clinical data recording and no initiative from the governments to promote the use of EMR.
In addition, there is also a practical challenge in terms of representing the differences between a truly enterprise-ready platform vs. a seemingly functional EMR solution. The well-versed leader believes the market is packed with EMR solution providers but only few handpicked of them provide an ROI multiple times over the long term. Therefore, Girish deems Easy Clinic as comprehensive solution that increase the bottom line of the clinic, both in terms of clinical and financial successes.
Events That Led To Foundation of Easy Clinic
Being a seasoned entrepreneur, Girish decided to pursue career in this industry because of an eventful incident. This incident took place back in the year 2000. At that time, he visited a doctor for a nagging cough. During his visit, he experienced that the registration and billing processes were quite fast. But, after meeting with doctor his views changed. The versatile leader remarks that “If the doctor was using a paper pad, it would have taken him 5 mins at the most to complete the visit, whereas it ended up taking him 15 mins.” He further adds, “As much as I believed in computerisation of records, I never for a moment felt that a computer program should slow its user down. Matter of fact, it should be the opposite.”
This experience pushed him to do research on healthcare informatics to better understand the complexities involved in recording clinical data. During the research, Girish pretended to be a patient and used to visit doctors and thereafter also interviewed a few of them. From these visits, he found that data that was meant to be captured was relatively simple, but due to several regulatory and computing challenges seized the doctor’s valuable time.
So, the industrious CEO started his journey to create solutions that simplify clinical data recording, handle complex workflows and offer deep dive into the data. Thereby, Easy Clinic is built with a mission to create the most captivating, modern and integrated healthcare software platform to reform healthcare delivery of the future.
