Developed in 1996 by a group of Family Practice Physicians in Austin, TX, this electronic EMR/EHR was created to fill a void in EMRs for small practices that was not cost-prohibitive. Dr. David Winn, MD., and his colleagues who had been using an older EMR system, developed the e-MDs for an ambulatory office, and this system was one of the first six ambulatory EMR systems to receive the Certification Commission for Healthcare Information Technology's 2007 criteria for functionality, interoperability and security.
