Ophthalmology
The ophthalmology EHR built for saving time at your practice
Meet EMA® — the Electronic Medical Assistant®
When you’re with your patient, every minute matters
If you’re an ophthalmologist, you probably see more patients than most specialists. And if your EHR is slowing you down, you’ll feel it in your bottom line and in the extra hours spent charting. Our EHR was built by ophthalmologists and is supported by a team that listens and evolves with you. It’s so intuitive that you can finish your notes in real time and get back to doing the work you love.
90% of our clinical staff uses iPads. This enables more face-to-face patient interaction, increases mobility and saves documentation time.

FAQs
What sets your ophthalmology EHR software apart for specialized eye care?
Our EMA EHR is built by practicing ophthalmologists to support your specific daily routines. It features customizable subspecialty workflows for retina, glaucoma, and surgical care, so you don’t have to rely on rigid, generic templates. The system learns your preferences and auto-suggests note content and coding for your review, helping drive clinical efficiency and allowing you to keep your focus on the patient, not the screen.
If your practice includes an ASC, our solutions are designed to connect your EHR, ASC, and practice management tools. This integration allows medical, surgical, and nursing staff to document pre-op, intra-op, and post-op details simultaneously. Connectivity that helps simplify CMS quality reporting and keeps your care team on the same page, from the clinic to the procedure room.
Can I review and annotate diagnostic images directly in the EHR?
Yes. With Ophthalmic Image Management, diagnostic images are accessible within the patient’s chart in EMA. Compare OCT slices side by side, review image sequences, filter by exam date and image type, zoom, annotate, and jump back to documentation — all without losing your place.
The system receives and stores DICOM images from your connected diagnostic devices and syncs them to the cloud. This means whether you’re in the office or remote, images are just one click away. And because they are stored in the cloud, a tech can capture them at one location while a physician can access them from another. That kind of visibility across your team and locations helps support better care coordination.
Does the platform offer an AI scribe to help with charting?
Yes. ModMed Scribe is an AI-powered clinical documentation tool integrated into our software. It listens to your natural conversations and auto-suggests structured clinical notes and orders for your review, helping streamline workflows and reduce after-hours charting.
How does the system handle complex medical coding?
Because you didn’t go to medical school to become a data entry clerk, our software captures your intent during the exam. It auto-suggests the appropriate CPT codes and modifiers based on your documentation. Once you review and approve these suggestions, they can help drive your downstream billing process and support the financial health of your practice.

Discover the ophthalmology EHR that makes your day easier.
ModMed is very efficient. I'm no longer spending a lot of time clicking, but rather more time doing what I want to do, which is talking to and treating the patient.
