ADVANCED DATA SYSTEMS:
A Profile in Stability and Reliability

"ADS has never changed its name, has never been taken over by another vendor, has never taken over another vendor, and has never forced its clients to move to (and pay for) another system."

For more than two decades, Advanced Data Systems (ADS) has been providing state of the art practice management software systems to the healthcare community. Today, thousands of practices rely on ADS for automation solutions.

MedicsElite™

About three years ago, ADS brought the latest in the ADS family of products to market: MedicsElite™. A true Microsoft™ Windows™ Graphical User Interface (GUI) system, MedicsElite empowers the medical practice with Windows GUI functionality for Electronic Claims / EDI, Appointment Scheduling / Recalls, Managed Care tracking, Prescription Writing, Letters, built-in Scanning, and a full array of medical Practice Management Reports.

MedicsElite was under development for more than six years prior to its initial release. To date, over five hundred medical practices utilize the MedicsElite system.

MedicsElite gives true meaning to the phrase “user defined.” It is flexible and capable of adapting to the user’s requirements. MedicsElite (with practice Administrator approval) allows the user to save report parameters and to sort the report in a number of ways that best suit the user. Users can select their preferred screen colors and personalize their own views.

Intersystems’ Cache™ database utilized by MedicsElite is widely respected and is used in some of the largest and most sophisticated healthcare (and non-healthcare) settings globally. Cache is fast, responsive, and reliable.

MedicsElite architecture itself makes for a real-time / on-line system eliminating those annoying “Waiting to Process” messages during screen changes. It also results in system data becoming available to all users immediately across the enterprise, without first having to perform a daily close.

About ADS

The ADS client base is comprised of all possible system configurations ranging from single provider / single user systems to multi-user / multi-location / multi-specialty practices.

Unlike many other practice management vendors, ADS has never changed its name, has never been taken over by another vendor, has never taken over another vendor, and has never forced its clients to move to (and pay for) another system. ADS has remained an independent company providing the industry’s finest products and services.

ADS produces its own software and is not a second or third party vendor of another company’s products.

ADS has a highly vested interest in its products and services since one hundred percent of the company’s revenue is derived from them. Vendors of another company’s system can - and often do - walk away from their “currently-being-sold” system in favor of another product, leaving their clients in limbo.

Systems from ADS are configured, trained, supported and updated by ADS employees. ADS maintains fully staffed Software and Hardware Support, Installation, Training, Research and Development, Sales, and Administrative Departments.

ADS and HIPAA

Ongoing ADS software support includes all Version upgrades, Module Enhancements, and governmentally required changes such as HIPAA. Clients of ADS do not have to be concerned about obtaining any required changes. These are provided automatically at no additional cost as a benefit that comes with having software support.

With specific regard to HIPAA, all ADS clients will have their ADS Application Software become HIPAA compliant prior to the current deadline date. ADS takes great pride that in over twenty years of operation, ADS has never missed any governmentally required changes. ADS is a HIPAA compliant company with all appropriate ADS employees having attended HIPAA training classes to become familiarized with the proper safeguarding of clients’ patient data. ADS has two HIPAA compliance officers on staff to ensure HIPAA integrity at all times.

ADS is fully prepared to provide HIPAA Business Partner Agreements and HIPAA Statements of Practices.

ADS has performed hundreds of data conversions from numerous other systems. There are also hundreds of ADS interfaces with other systems and entities such as hospitals, clinical labs, pharmacies, and electronic medical records (EMRs).

ADS maintains its Corporate Office in Maywood NJ which services the entire NY metropolitan area, with regional offices in Plymouth Meeting PA, Laurel MD, and Boca Raton FL. ADS is an IBM™ Business Partner, a Microsoft Certified Solutions Provider, a Corporate Affiliate of MGMA™.
