A couple years back I had the opportunity to sit in on a couple planning meetings with Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital in southern California as I was present to talk about the implementation of Tablet PCs with the Eclipsys system. I do have to say they had a very organized system and I actually...

I think this will make perfect sense with integrating HealthVault for use with connecting to German EMR Systems. Back in October of 2009 I had the opportunity to meet many different representatives from different countries at the World Medical Tourism Conference and one of the most interesting...

I know everyone today is talking about the Apple Tablet announcement today and while reading all the tablet news, I happened to run across this post from Dr. Crounse at the HealthBlog referencing Tablet PCs and thought I would look around a little bit and see what I had in the archives...

It is a tough spot to be in today with many choices, but the one focus when looking at a system is to look at one that will “talk” to other systems, perhaps one that will enable communication with a hospital. Years ago when the early systems came on to the market, everything was self contained...

It may be a while before meaningful use gets its full authority and I do hope they included medical devices in the interpretation too. What devices and their reporting data is meaningful? CCHIT has the authority to certify according to the news today until the end of the year. BD The...

This is actually a a pretty neat story in the fact that Fallon Clinic wrote their own interchange, impressive. I say that having written an EMR years ago, thus I have great admiration for the organization for taking on the task. You can read more details here. Based in Worcester...

I am a big proponent of Personal Health Records and have an entire section dedicated to the use and instructions here on both Google Health and HealthVault, but again it comes back to education to get folks moving and motivated. As I wrote below, where are the mentors? Where Are the PHR Mentors – Education...

Dr. Crounse over at the Health Blog featured a post on the gloStream EMR solution and I had to add a couple words here as way back a few years ago I had the same idea and concept, and wrote an EMR that worked with Microsoft Office , but of course we have come a long way since that time and my old EMR...
