IQMax™ Partner Extends Product Offering with Announcement of PhysAssist™ IQEnterprise
IQMax’s distribution partner, MedQuist, Inc, announced the general availability of IQMax’s IQEnterprise Mobile Platform for PhysAssistIQ for their direct and distributor sales channel.
Charlotte, NC (PRWEB) July 18, 2005 -- IQMax, Inc., a leading provider of
mobile healthcare solutions announced today that one of their leading
distribution partners, MedQuist, Inc., has released the IQEnterprise Mobile
Platform for PhysAssistIQ (IQSpeak®). MedQuist is the largest U.S. provider of
transcription services to the United States and has been a co-branding
distribution partner of the IQMax IQSpeak mobile dictation solution since
2002.
The IQEnterprise mobile platform delivers the same best-in-class
performance as IQMax’s IQAnywhere ASP platform but provides the healthcare
client the ability to manage a premise based server model within their own IT
infrastructure. For those implementing IQEnterprise, they will now have the
extended ability to deploy a distributed mobile platform to their integrated
healthcare delivery network while centrally managing administration.
"The
PhysAssistIQ application significantly enhances the quality of patient care
while reducing errors. A physician -- or other caregiver -- can now have a list
of patients in the palm of their hand and can display that list based on their
preferences," says Rob Johnson, product manager for PhysAssist IQ. "During or
immediately after the point of care, they can dictate their findings while the
information is still fresh in their minds. And because of the interface, there's
no need to re-enter any patient identifier or demographic data."
Patient
demographic data is obtained by an interface with practice management/
scheduling and/or hospital information systems. Users simply select the
appropriate patient from a list on their PDA and select "record" to dictate.
PhysAssist IQ operates like a hand-held dictation device, allowing the
originator to fast forward and rewind through dictation, as well as hold
dictation on the unit to complete at a later time. The user can also select a
work type for the dictation and assign a STAT note for priority transcription.
IQEnterprise provides a world class mobile platform which supports
IQMax’s clinical results solution, IQRounds; IQCharge for mobile electronic
documentation of patient encounter evaluation and procedures; IQScript and
IQFormulary for electronic prescribing and formulary compliance along with
IQSpeak for dictation.
