RALEIGH, N.C. - October 5, 2006 - Misys Healthcare Systems, a market leader in healthcare IT, today introduced new, customizable Pay-for-Performance (P4P) reporting tools as part of the Misys Homecare's™ Executive Dashboard. In order to best prepare home health agencies for P4P reimbursements, Misys Homecare delivers real-time, consolidated financial and clinical information in easy-to-read data reports.

The new Misys Homecare P4P tools will be unveiled October 15-18 during the 25th Annual Meeting of the National Association for Home Care and Hospice in Baltimore, Maryland. Misys will be showing the Executive Dashboard and the new reporting features in Booth #904.

Home health agencies face the need to prepare for pending P4P reimbursement guidelines. Misys' healthcare IT solutions enable home care organizations to meet the challenges of shifting provider payment structures. Misys Homecare's P4P reporting tools give users instant access to critical measurement data. This access empowers agencies to alter patient care plans and business operations. In order to thrive under new results-based reimbursements, agencies must embrace integrated technologies that improve efficiencies and patient care outcomes.

"P4P is on the horizon for organizations across the country. Many agencies are struggling with how to best position themselves in advance of industry-wide shifts while, at the same time, caring for more patients and maintaining quality patient care," said Misys Healthcare Systems Vice President of Operations Cathy McKillip. "These changes demand innovative IT solutions. Misys' new P4P reporting tools allow home care executives to meet these challenges through consolidated, real-time data in easy-to-read reports."

Misys Homecare, a fully integrated, intuitive clinical and business solution, and its Executive Dashboard streamline clinical and financial information onto one, user-friendly screen offering unprecedented ease-of-use and access to critical patient data.

The Misys Homecare Executive Dashboard is a personalized, Web-based portal allowing home care organizations access to a library of reports. Agencies can gather and manage different types of patient and business data in one integrated solution. With Misys' new, customizable P4P reports, agencies can pair financial and clinical information to optimize reimbursement.
