Birmingham, AL - EHS, a Birmingham-based company specializing in electronic health record (EHR) and physician practice management software systems, announces that the Jefferson County Department of Health (JCDH) has successfully tested the EHS product, CareRevolution, on Apple's iPad. This deployment, while not native to the iPad, is a testament to the flexibility and standards adhered to by CareRevolution.
“When Apple first announced the iPad, we were intrigued by the possibility of using it in clinical environments,” said Claude Ouimet, MD. Deputy Health Officer, Jefferson County Department of Health. “Weighing only 1.6 pounds, the iPad is much easier for a physician to carry between rooms in the clinic. Since CareRevolution never actually stores any Patient Medical Information on individual workstations, the iPad still retains HIPAA compliance.”
Using the recently announced Citrix Receiver™, from Citrix Systems, the JCDH is able to access and use CareRevolution on the iPad. The Citrix Receiver™ app is available free through Apple's App store and CareRevolution can be purchased by visiting ehsmed.com. About EHS
