NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. & ORLANDO, Fla. (June 15, 2011) –

Mitochon Systems, the first, free, fully certified EHR system, and CollaborateMD, a low-cost practice management and billing system serving 5,000 providers, today announced a partnership to offer independent physicians a package solution. With Mitochon’s mEMR, a free fully certified (ONC-ATSB) EHR and CollaborateMD’s advanced practice management system, physicians can qualify for the government’s meaningful use incentives and reduce or eliminate claim denials resulting in increased cash flow.

“CollaborateMD is very pleased to offer this integrated, web-based solution. Our partnership with Mitochon Systems will enable independent physicians to obtain an EHR system and improve operational effectiveness without spending thousands in up-front costs or hiring a full-time IT staff”

“This partnership gives independent physicians a combination of advanced services currently found in expensive EHR systems at very low cost using a web-based system. Our initiative with CollaborateMD enables solo practitioners and small medical groups to qualify for meaningful use incentives and obtain an advanced practice management system without having to buy expensive hardware or be locked into a lengthy software contract,” said Chris Riley, CEO, Mitochon Systems.

“CollaborateMD is very pleased to offer this integrated, web-based solution.
