Lavender & Wyatt Systems, Inc. Welcomes Preferred Family Healthcare

Lavender & Wyatt Systems, Inc. (LWSI), is pleased to welcome Preferred Family Healthcare as our newest Essentia information management and EMR client.

Little Rock, AR (PRWEB) June 10, 2006

Lavender & Wyatt Systems, Inc. (LWSI), is pleased to welcome Preferred Family Healthcare as our newest Essentia information management and EMR client. After an extensive evaluation that included several visits to LWSI headquarters, Preferred Family Healthcare recently chose Lavender & Wyatt Systems’ billing, intake, scheduling, Electronic Medical Records and financial application software and support. Michael Schwend, CEO and President, said that their “…decision was as much about the product as it was the organization supporting that product.”

Preferred Family is Missouri’s largest mental healthcare provider, and they just expanded into Texas. Michael expects continued strong growth long into the future. Both the product and the vendor they chose had to have the capability to keep up with that growth. Preferred Family provides comprehensive mental healthcare services by well-qualified professionals who deliver the highest level of quality care and information while striving to overcome the barriers experienced by those that they serve.

Preferred Family began offering services in 1979 with an annual budget of $150,000. The first facility located just outside of Kirksville, Missouri was known as "The Barn". Since then Preferred Family has expanded to 22 locations employing over 500 people with an annual budget of 20 million dollars. By holding steady to their mission, Preferred Family will continue to meet the growing needs of the communities already served while continuing to expand into other communities and services.

Moving off of multiple in-house developed applications to LWSI’s Essentia system, Preferred Family expects to have the efficiencies in place to accommodate continued rapid growth. In addition, they plan to take full advantage of the system’s full integration and reporting capabilities to improve the accuracy and timeliness of their reporting. Please help us in welcoming the professionals at Preferred Family Healthcare to the LWSI family. You can learn more about Preferred Family at http://www. pfh. org (http://www. pfh. org).
