"Doctors love mobile technology. An estimated 80 percent of physicians have smartphones," said Ryan Howard, CEO of Practice Fusion. "This prototype is the next step we promised our mobile-hungry medical community. Soon, our doctors will access their free EMR accounts anytime, anywhere securely with a free iPhone app."
Key Facts:
-- The iOS and Android applications will give medical providers secure
mobile access to records anywhere they have cell or WiFi reception using
a free Practice Fusion EMR account.
-- The applications will function as a mobile medical office for viewing
patient charts, reviewing lab results, responding to prescription refill
requests, HIPAA-compliant messaging and contacting patients.
-- The first public release of Practice Fusion's native iOS and Android
applications is planned for early 2012.
-- The native mobile applications will be offered entirely free, just like
the company's EMR system.
-- Practice Fusion users can also choose to connect to their EHR account
through a mobile or tablet device using the existing affordable LogMeIn
solution.
-- Practice Fusion's free, web-based EMR currently has over 100,000 medical
professional users serving 20 million patients.
Mobile devices have become a popular hardware choice in the medical community thanks to portability and access to real-time health information. Only in the last few years have medical providers been able to chart, order labs and e-prescribe anytime, anywhere, with the convenience granted by web-based technology. From house call doctors to telemedicine practitioners, new medical practice models can rely on Practice Fusion's web-based platform to perform in the office or on the move.
