Software Company ASR to Develop CU Advanced Patient Care Software

AURORA (July 6, 2009). Medical software company Analytical Research Systems, Inc. (ASR) and the University of Colorado today announced that ASR has secured an exclusive license to advanced patient care software developed at the University of Colorado. The technology covered in the license agreement was developed and implemented by ASR President David Spiegel, a professor of medicine at the UC Denver Anschutz Medical Campus.

“Our goal is to advance the delivery of healthcare through the implementation of an advanced electronic health record that is affordable to small medical practices,” Spiegel stated. ASR will use the licensed technology to further the development of its new electronic medical record product, asrSynapseTM, designed specifically for small-to-medium-sized independent physician practices as a convenient, cost-effective medical record solution. This web-based, point-of-care tool will provide a longitudinal electronic health record for the care of patients with specific focus on primary care, internal medicine, and chronic disease management. Advanced informatics will provide quality data analysis, patient level and practice level alerts, and enhance practice efficiency.

“The CU Technology Transfer Office is excited about the opportunity of asrSynapseTM to generate impact in the medical records segment of the healthcare industry,” said David Allen, CU’s Associate Vice President for Technology Transfer. Allen added, “the national need is readily apparent and this development is another proof-point for CU’s relevance in healthcare delivery.”
