When did Ridgeview Internal Medicine become independent?

Dr. Joseph DiPoala, Jr. co-found Ridgeview Internal Medicine in 1992, which became an independent practice in 2000. Long a believer in the power of technology to connect practitioners, payers and patients, Ridgeview became one of the first in its region to fully adopt electronic health records in 2001. They thought adopting eMDs in 2009 would help connect the dots. But continued roadblocks when it came to frequent updates, more complicated reporting requirements, and growing to scale when faced with lengthy charting processes meant Ridgeview was spending more time on data entry and less time on patients and profitability. Adopting athenahealth’s cloud-based solution, athenaOne, in 2015, which also includes 24/7 customer service, was a game-changer in reducing physician burnout and enabled remaining independent.

Is Ridgeview part of Rochester General Hospital?

From its founding in 1992 to 2000, Ridgeview was part of Rochester General Hospital. While independence offered the potential for more administrative freedom, profitability, and more hands-on patient care, only the proper technology would enable success. Interoperability is hugely important, and by using athenaClinical’s patient record-sharing functionality, DiPoala and his colleagues are able to save time versus using eMDs, which required calling providers or logging onto Rochester General’s separate EHR. They formerly had to search for documents, print them out, and scan each record in. Adding new patient charts is also easier and reduces administrative burden, which eliminates manual input of key PAMI data — problems, allergies, medications, and immunizations. DiPoala estimates saving nine minutes per new-patient chart, and says this bandwidth has increased flexibility and profitability. “When you’re dealing with an EHR that doesn’t support your work well, you’re a lot less willing to take on new patients, and you have trouble taking care of the patients you do have,” he said. “When you’re going to be bound up in a room just doing battle with your EHR, you don’t have the flexibility double-book or extend the hours a little later in the evening because you’ll be burning the midnight oil on documentation.”

Is Athena Marketplace a third party app?

Making connections within the athena Marketplace — a third-party app store — has also proved invaluable, explained DiPoala. One of the biggest challenges for practices converting to a new EHR is data conversion. Ridgeview was able to beta-test a Marketplace conversion option, and DiPoala provided in-depth feedback on the program’s design and testing process. “The marketplace opportunities are no small thing,” he said. “I’m confident that athena is head and shoulders above the competitors. We’ve really benefited from athena’s embrace of third parties and being a leader with regard to opening the architecture to those opportunities.”
