“By providing us with comprehensive, integrated electronic health and dental
record support, PTSO of Washington has been an essential partner in our success.”
“PTSO gives us access to the IT professionals we need to implement and maintain
integrated technology systems at a fraction of the cost of trying to hire them ourselves.”
“PTSO provides us with complete peace of mind. We know that our electronic medical and dental records are online
and always up to date.”
“PTSO’s reporting solutions have enabled us to achieve meaningful use
status early.”
“By partnering with PTSO, FHC is able to take advantage of group
purchasing discounts that small rural clinics can only dream about.”
“When our Medicaid agency changed from MMIS to Provider One, PTSO transferred all new patient
ID numbers into our practice management system, saving us thousands of dollars.”
“Participating in PTSO’s CHC-controlled network has
maximized our ability to be efficient with technology.”
“Thanks to PTSO, we are much closer to achieving meaningful use core measures than we would had we
been working on our own.”
“PTSO’s technical guidance allows our providers to focus on the quality
outcomes of the process, rather than the process itself.”
