Ellen Burkett, M.D.
Gail Glover
Internist
Medical Director, MedSouth
Denver, Colorado
Ellen Burkett, M.D., a Denver internist, can now review information about her patients in her office, her home or at the
hospital. Thanks to an innovative partnership between Quest Diagnostics and MedPlus, a software developer, information
previously dispersed in the offices of specialists, hospitals, radiologists, pharmacies and laboratories, is now accessible
in one place. The patient electronic medical record is improving standards of care and decision-making at MedSouth, the
500-member independent physician association where Dr. Burkett is the medical director. Most doctors havent automated
because the investment hasnt been justified by an ability to work faster, smarter, better. This collaboration should give
physicians a powerful incentive to change, says Dr. Burkett.
