Item 7.01 |
Regulation FD Disclosure. |
General Employment Enterprises, Inc. a provider of specialty staffing services and solutions announced that its Scribe Solutions (“Scribe”) subsidiary, will be honored as one of the 50 fastest-growing private companies in North Florida at the Jacksonville Business Journal 50 Awards on July 16, 2015. General Employment closed its acquisition of Scribe on April 1, 2015. Scribe Solutions still qualified for the Business Journal 50 Awards because Scribe did not become part of a public company until April 1, 2015. Scribe provides data entry assistants (medical scribes) who specialize in electronic medical records (EMR) to busy doctors in emergency departments, clinics and private practices. There is currently a growing need for medical scribes due to the rise in EMR being utilized for billing and documentation of health care services and the meaningful use requirements that are part of the Affordable Care Act.
