Dallas, Texas - May 21, 2007 - It was announced today that Sage Software Healthcare, Inc. has won 2nd place in the "Towards an Electronic Record (TEPR) Hot Products Awards" for its Intergy by Sage Practice Portal. Entries were rated on criteria including company profile, product profile, infrastructure and integration, and product differentiation.
Intergy by Sage Practice Portal provides a web presence for physician offices, enhances patients' online experience with existing websites, allows patients to actively participate in their care through online services, and instantly connects the physician to the patient electronically. Additionally, it can be easily customized for each practice, making its look, feel, and utility unique to the practice that uses it.
