United Memorial Medical Center Moves to Perceptive Software?s ECM Solutions for Healthcare
United Memorial Medical Center Moves to Perceptive Software’s ECM Solutions for Healthcare
Shawnee, Kan. (Vocus/PRWEB) January 25, 2011
Perceptive Software, creator of enterprise content management (ECM) solutions, including ImageNow document management, imaging and workflow, announced today that United Memorial Medical Center will replace its current document management solution with Perceptive Software’s ECM solutions for healthcare. They will implement the Perceptive solutions in medical records, patient registration and in the business office.
“The current state of our document management and scanning technology served a simple and effective purpose, however as an organization, we felt we needed to move forward with a more robust, flexible enterprise solution that can accommodate our health information management and registration departments, as well as our back office needs,” said Kurt Calman, Chief Information Officer, United Memorial Medical Center.
Located between Buffalo and Rochester in New York, United Memorial Medical Center is the only acute care hospital in Genesee County. With 131 licensed beds, they provide necessary healthcare services to a regional population of over 93,000 residents. United Memorial Medical Center will seamlessly integrate ImageNow with its MEDITECH application, enabling employees at the medical center to manage content throughout its lifecycle, wherever it’s needed in the facility. Advanced scanning, archiving and integration options will enable clinical and administrative staff across the facility to electronically manage patient information directly from patient records in MEDITECH, including the ability for physicians to electronically sign patient medical records.
“With ImageNow, we will be able to move forward to a paperless system, consolidate resources into a single encompassing solution and streamline the workflows for all staff involved, including our physicians,” said Calman. “The flexibility of the product and its feature set, while remaining simple to use, really put Perceptive ahead of the competition. The ability to integrate with a multitude of different information systems was a major point in our decision, especially with the enterprise document management solution. In addition, the ability to maintain security and track the entire audit trail of medical documentation tremendously improves some of the paper processes in place today and keeps us ahead of the curve when it comes to HIPAA compliancy. ImageNow will be a key point for our organization in providing options to our doctors and medical record staff, which in turn will improve our quality of care and service.”

New Portable Medical Records Can Save Lives in an Emergency
San Diego, CA (PRWEB) December 5, 2006
Vital Record Corporation (www.vitalrecord.net) announces a computer application named ViRec, which records medical history onto a thumb-sized storage device and onto a standard cell phone. As many as 98,000 people die each year due to medical errors. A study given in “The Journal of the American Medical Association” (5/2005) indicates the death rate has changed little. To help reduce medical errors, the ViRec portable medical records application provides direct access to a person’s medical information, such as identification information, prescription and non-prescription medications, doctors and care givers, insurance carriers, and family history.
When the storage device is plugged into a computer, the medical information is automatically displayed using the computer’s installed Internet browser application. In an emergency, medical personnel have immediate access to the medical information simply by browsing the various pages containing the medical data. Alternatively, the medical history can be stored on a cell phone and subsequently displayed using simple key selection available on the phone.
For ease of recording the medical information, web page format is used. The data is written to the portable storage device for viewing with a standard Internet browser. The option of including a digital photograph of the owner is provided in the Identification category of the medical data.
The unique portable storage unit is a “plug and play” device. When it is plugged into a computer, the ViRec application automatically starts with a button selection for launching the Internet browser with the initial Identification page of the medical information. As with standard web page format, selections are made with buttons to select and view the various pages of medical data.
With the “plug and play” feature, emergency medical personnel do not need special application training since a standard web browser is used for viewing the medical information.
The small storage unit contains the ViRec application and controls, as well as all the medical information. Thus, all components of ViRec are self contained in the portable device.
Although a web browser is used to record and view the medical information, no internet connection is required. The medical information is kept private and secure and not vulnerable to access on the public, untrusted Internet. Additionally, the medical data stored on the device is encrypted and cannot be read using any other application.
Moreover, no external power is needed to maintain the contents of the storage unit. Because the unit is small, it can be carried, worn around the neck, or placed on a key chain.
An added function of the ViRec application is the transmission of medical information from the storage unit to a standard cell phone. A temporary Internet connection is required to send the medical data in encrypted form to the Vital Record Corporation server before placement on the cell phone.
The installed application manager software of the cell phone is used to retrieve the medical data from the company’s server, including a special ViRec application for displaying the data. The medical data is automatically removed from the server once it has been successfully stored on the cell phone.
To use this added function, the cell phone must have Internet access capability to retrieve the medical data. The cell phone must also support Java applications known as Midlets.

Provides peace of mind to both the senior and caregiver.
Prevents potential drug interactions by listing all medications and allergies
Seniors can customize their personal medical organizer by choosing from a variety of pictures for the front of their Medtrakker. Not only will the Medtrakker provide a one stop solution for the senior’s medical organization needs but it will be customized to represent their own particular lifestyle.
The Medtrakker takes the risk out of senior’s forgetting something critical when it comes to monitoring their health issues. Amber Bowden’s product provides a comprehensive plan for a senior to self manage their medical situation while trusting that they will not forget or confuse anything.
