February 20, 2008
IQMax is pleased to announce that for the second year in a row it will be showcasing its suite of intelligent, mobile, browser-based healthcare solutions in Microsoft’s Booth #2247 at HIMSS 2008 in Orlando, Fla., where Paul Adkison, founder and CEO of IQMax will be speaking on mobility in healthcare.
IQMax’s browser-based solutions provide physicians with sophisticated tools that allow them to streamline their workflow, increase productivity and render better patient care anytime, anywhere, on their mobile device.
IQMax’s solutions include IQRounds for mobile access to clinical information, IQCharge for capture of billable charges, and IQSpeak for the dictation and documentation of patient encounters. Together, these solutions provide caregivers with a powerful set of workflow tools that allow caregivers to render better patient care and reduce medical errors in any healthcare setting. IQMax’s mobile solutions are entirely built utilizing Microsoft products, using the Microsoft .NET Framework and supporting Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) technology, Microsoft Internet Explorer and Windows Mobile.
IQMax’s mobile healthcare solutions enable healthcare providers to render care in any setting, whether acute or ambulatory, to providers of any size. IQMax can deliver its solutions as software-as-a-service (SaaS), hosted by IQMax, with minimal upfront capital costs required by the provider, or as an on-premise installed solution with IQEnterprise. IQMax has extensive experience in integrating with disparate back end clinical information systems. To date, the company has interfaced with over 50 diverse systems including those from leading healthcare organizations.
IQMax’s mobile solutions allow healthcare to be delivered efficiently and cost effectively, because physicians do not have to rely on paper-based charts and billing systems, which are inefficient, subject to medical errors, and add costs to the process of rendering care. Any healthcare provider using IQMax’s mobile solutions, can capture charges at the point of care, regardless of the care setting using IQCharge on their mobile device, ensuring that all charges are accurately captured. This increase in revenue stems from the elimination of lost charge notes, the ability to capture charges for every rounding visit the physician makes, and more accurate documentation of patient visits providing for higher Evaluation & Management levels.
IQRounds and IQPatient List keep physicians connected to the latest patient and clinical information anytime, anywhere. BCC Consulting has documented that physicians using a mobile rounding tool such as IQRounds, allows physicians to save up to 30 minutes per day on their daily rounds preparation. Instead of having to waste time searching through paper-based records that may not have the latest clinical information, physicians can become connected to the latest and most accurate rounding information on their mobile device, helping ensure that care is rendered with the latest, most accurate rounding information in hand. With IQRounds, physicians are always connected to lab results, vitals, meds, alerts, allergies, pathology, microbiology, and transcribed reports for their patients, allowing them to render patient care based on the latest and most accurate information, eliminating costly inefficient paper based systems.
IQSpeak allows the physician to document patient encounters using their mobile device at the point of care, ensuring that each patient encounter is documented thoroughly and accurately, and saves physicians valuable time vs. using a telephone because it allows them to dictate on their mobile devices at a time and place most convenient for them.
“IQMax is pleased to work with Microsoft in providing the healthcare community with innovative mobile solutions that improve patient care, enhance physician productivity and streamline the process of rendering care,” said Paul Adkison, CEO and Founder of IQMax.
“Physicians require powerful tools that provide them with the right information at the right time, and that are flexible enough to fit their daily schedules, whether rendering care at the hospital, clinic or anywhere in between,” said Chris Sullivan, U.S. health industry solutions director, Microsoft Corp. “IQMax is working with Microsoft to deliver innovative solutions built on Microsoft’s familiar, easy-to-use and widely supported platform to empower physicians to deliver better quality care to their patients.”
