MELVILLE, N.Y., Oct. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Henry Schein MicroMD^®, a provider of proven and cost-effective practice management and electronic medical records (EMR) systems, and MDeverywhere, provider of revenue cycle management (RCM) and credentialing solutions, today announced a new agreement to offer customers an industry leading, fully integrated clinical and financial system designed to help physicians build a better practice.

"Both companies have an excellent product and enviable position in the health care IT marketplace serving ambulatory medical practices," said Bruce Lieberthal, General Manager and Vice President of Emerging Technologies for Henry Schein MicroMD.

Henry Schein MicroMD practice management and EMR software is designed with performance and scalability to assist providers in managing administrative, financial and clinical workflow efficiency and profitability in their practice.

MDeverywhere's ICD-10 compliant RCM solution effectively captures revenue a physician leaves uncollected, typically 15%.
