Notes to Editors
EMIS was established in March 1987 by two GPs who identified an opportunity to develop and supply practice management software and computerise patients' electronic health records then kept on paper at GPs' surgeries.
The Group has since become the UK's leading supplier of software and related services to GP surgeries and now leads the market, with around 34 million patient records held on its platform.
The Group's latest product, EMIS Web, electronically connects GPs with other NHS professionals by enabling secure, shared, centrally hosted access to patients' cradle-to-grave electronic health records held at the Group's data centres. The transformational system has the capability to interconnect with other NHS patient data systems to:
· |
save time and money by eliminating paperwork and the re-inputting of data;
|
· |
significantly reduce patient waiting times; and
|
· |
reduce the risk of prescribing and treatment errors. |
EMIS is headquartered in Leeds with an overseas office in Canada. It employs 786 people, mainly in the UK.
