First physician affiliated with Renaissance Health Systems goes live with PWeR

The Quantum Group, Inc. (NYSE Amex:QGP) announced today that the first physician affiliated with Quantum subsidiary Renaissance Health Systems has “gone live” with PWeR™ (Personal Wellness electronic Record™), the one patient, one record™ electronic medical record platform offered by Quantum Innovations, Inc. This successful deployment marks the inception of the cross-marketing potential that is core to the Quantum model.

Renaissance Health Systems has more than 2,000 affiliated providers and multiple contracts with payers that have assigned nearly 5,000 patient lives to Renaissance for the coordination of their healthcare.

Dr. Edgar R. Blecker is a primary care physician in Sebastian, Florida and has been affiliated with Renaissance for approximately a year and a half. He has recently expanded his operations into a second facility and added new physicians. Using the web-based PWeR platform, Dr. Blecker and his associates can collaborate and connect in real time.

Dr. Blecker noted, “We are thrilled to be live on PWeR. The platform follows a natural workflow and has allowed us to streamline our existing processes and create a more efficient office environment. The training and support have been consistent with the high quality and service we have experienced during our relationship with Renaissance. There is great benefit and simplicity in working with a Company that has many solutions under one umbrella.”

Pete Martinez, Quantum Senior Vice President and Chief Technology & Innovations Officer, has led the development of PWeR from inception. “Dr. Blecker is an innovator and is a fantastic example of how PWeR can be scaled to meet the needs of any practice from the solo practitioner, to a multiple-physician group practice, medical facility or a hospital environment. PWeR allows Dr. Blecker to have the flexibility to share critical patient information between his two offices with a click of the mouse and to monitor daily operations. Further, as Dr. Blecker conducts rounds in the hospitals to visit with any of his admitted patients, he can access and update his patient records and order any necessary tests, procedures, or prescriptions as he conducts his examinations.”

Martinez continued, “The country is demanding reform of the healthcare delivery system and we believe PWeR is an ideal tool to facilitate that change. PWeR stands apart from existing, and largely software-based, players in the market through our one patient, one record approach fueled by the Internet. Our 19 patent applications are revolutionary in this industry.”
