LSS Data Systems (LSS) develops administrative, financial, and clinical practice management software to meet the needs of virtually every major type of physician practice and specialty. Used by hospitals, health care networks, integrated delivery networks, clinics, practice groups, and other health care enterprises, LSS is the Physician Practice Management and Ambulatory EMR vendor of choice for MEDITECH facilities across the country and around the world.

Together, MEDITECH and LSS co-developed the Medical and Practice Management (MPM) Suite, a robust, full-featured ambulatory care solution for clinicians and administrative staff in practices and clinics. The MPM Suite contains several management components, including an Electronic Ambulatory Record (EAR) that enables MEDITECH customers to share critical care information between acute and ambulatory care settings to optimize both efficiency and patient safety.

Clients of LSS represent a cross-section of today's health care industry, from small groups operating in rural health facilities to large groups with hundreds of providers in populous urban settings. This diversity of users highlights the remarkable scalability and flexibility of the LSS system, making LSS one of the leading physician practice management solution providers. LSS has maintained a long-standing business partnership with MEDITECH, becoming a Corporate Partner in 1982.

CEO & Managing Director

MEDITECH South Africa [Medical Information Technology SA (Pty) Ltd.] (MEDITECH SA) provides software and services to the health care industry in Africa and the Middle East, bringing together hospitals, clinics, physicians' offices, home health agencies, long-term care sites, research facilities, and more into an integrated enterprise.

The strength of MEDITECH SA, founded in 1982, lies in our ability to provide our clients with innovative, cost-effective solutions. From inception, MEDITECH SA elected to operate as a technology transfer organization using well-proven solutions as a platform from which we could develop solutions specific to local requirements. This resulted in our relationship with MEDITECH, which spans more than 20 years, as we license, implement and support their technology and software applications. This partnership allows us to leverage the best technology available in the world while using our experience to adapt it to the unique requirements of our context. Recently, our relationship with MEDITECH was cemented with their significant investment in MEDITECH SA.

Africa faces unprecedented health care challenges, made all the more daunting by the HIV and AIDS pandemic. Ways must be found to provide appropriate and cost-effective care in our rapidly changing environment. With the expanding deployment of information and communication technologies and the resultant increase in computer literacy amongst patients, health care providers and administrators, demands are placed on organizational infrastructure to ensure efficient and secure access to a wide range of information. MEDITECH SA has established itself as a leader in the Middle East and Africa with a significant market share including 95% of the commercial laboratory market in South Africa. We have an unsurpassed track record of implementing systems on time and within budget. Our high-quality products have the backing of excellent service levels, which has resulted in our high client retention rate.

We at MEDITECH SA welcome the challenges that lie ahead and look forward to continue to play a pivotal role in ensuring that our clients and their patients are equipped with the best that there is to offer, in order to help advance care delivery in Africa. With our comprehensive armory of tried and tested health care information system solutions, we are able to provide the most viable, reliable and sustainable, leading-edge solutions in the field of health care information management.
