Most Doctors Aren't Using EHR & EMR applications

Public hospitals in the United States of America are looking forward to get equipped with Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems in the recent years to come. This depicts the popularity and necessity of EMR application development. Implementation of Electronic Medical Record (EMR) is considered to be a significant change for the hospitals, clinics, nursing homes etc. This application facilitates us the accessibility of charts, documents and related data anywhere we want. It helps to have updated as well as accurate computerized information and case details of patients.

Likewise, an Electronic Health Record (EHR) is also a developing concept, which is an orderly and accurate collection of patients’ health information in an automated form. As this record is in a digital format, it can be accessed or shared across various health care settings. EHR application contains a wide range of data including medical history, laboratory test results, demographics, medication and allergies, immunization status, radiology images, vital signs etc. Moreover, it also keeps track of patient’s personal information such as his or her age, weight, decease, treatment and billing information. EHR is, also, mentioned as personal health record (PHR).

The above two terms, which are considered as a practice management system, are often used interchangeably, though their difference can be mentioned. The EMR is the record of patients’ information created in hospitals. It can serve as a data source for EHR. Hence, EMR application development and EHR application development are evolving as the significant and essential software development for medical practice. EHR application helps to manage things like accounts and billing information of the patient, appointment schedule, eligibility verification, electronic claims and ERA and more. While, EMR application helps to improve the quality of healthcare making it safer.

A survey conducted regarding “the advantages of using electronic medical records (EMRs) and electronic health records (EHRs)” reveals that these applications receive recognition for offering “greater legibility of notes.” They also facilitate better coordinations of treatment by more than one healthcare provider, which is the most valuable feature for healthcare practitioners.

These high-tech applications include video conferencing as well, which makes patient’s visit to the doctor easy. Under this application a patient can have video chat with his doctor and his video will be saved as a visit.

EMR application development and EHR application development are provided by a number of software development service providing companies due to its growing significance and usefulness. Though, there are many medical practitioners who are reluctant to use these applications.

The experts engaged in EMR application development and EHR application developments are continuously making efforts to bring innovations into these applications, which help moving healthcare forward.

Keeping Track of Google Algorithm Updates Helps SEO

“I don’t have any idea about the suitable flight schedule, need to Google it!”

“If you don’t know the correct address, you should Google it!”

“What? You don’t know the history of this author? You must Google it!”


Aren’t above all quotes kind of similar ones, which we hear or say usually?

The word “Google” has become the synonym of word “Search” for all of us as it is the most popular and acknowledged search engine.

Enormous online businesses depend on Google Algorithm to broaden their horizons as it is the phenomenon that determines process and criteria to rank a webpage on Google. In the other words, it is the set of rules that regulates how the webpage of a particular site will rank in this search giant. If the phrase ‘SEO Services’ is searched, the Google Algorithm will decide which SEO Services provider website should be placed where.

This makes it crucial for each online business or Blogger to keep updates about Google Algorithm or to keep track of the changes brought by Google in its Search Algorithm.

Google is such a search engine that makes changes into its algorithm quite frequently. Every year, it has been changed around 600 times. Most of these changes are minor. Google rolls out bigger algorithmic updates in the particular interval of few months as well. To overcome the hassle of spammers and black hat SEO technique is the key reason behind this.

Query Encryption, Panda 3.3, caffeine update, Expanded Sitelinks, Pagination Elements, 516 Algo Updates are few among the list of major Google Algorithmic updates. Considerable understanding on all these Google Algo updates offers great help with Search Engine Optimization.

Web-Giants Stage Demonstrations Against SOPA & PIPA

There was news all over the web in the month of January this year about one-day service blackout observed by English Wikipedia, Reddit and around 7,000 other small websites. Wikipedia’s banner for blackout was viewed by more than 160 million people. On January 18, outside the offices of U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer (D-NY) and U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), hordes of protesters staged demonstrations against SOPA and PIPA, in the New York City, USA.

Moreover, Google had collected signatures of over 7 million people and held a rally in the New York City asking to boycott companies, which support SOPA and PIPA.

SOPA is the acronym of Stop Online Piracy Act, while PIPA stands for Protect IP Act. Both these acts are for foreign websites, which infringe copyrighted web-contents. Both are associated commonly with media privacy and have provided two methods to conquer copyright infringement on foreign websites.

SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) is a United States Bill that was introduced with a view to overcome online trafficking in copyrighted counterfeit goods and intellectual property. Under the act, court orders can be requested to curb advertising networks and online payment facilities from doing business with restricted websites and to limit the Search Engines from linking to those websites. Moreover, the U.S. Department of Justice could seek court orders demanding Internet service providers to block the domain names of the infringing websites.

PIPA (Protect IP Act) is the similar kind of Senate bill. Here, IP stands for Intellectual Property. This bill is for Intellectual Properties, such as, music, movies or the web-text that can be easily copied and transmitted anywhere online without doing any payment to the creators, in the today’s digital age. Such practices are posing threat to the businesses of a number of Hollywood studios, many music publishers and others.

The web giants, such as Google, Wikipedia, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and Reddit, protested against these legislations saying that they would bound to act as an online police due to these two bills. Further, they will be considered responsible, as per the bills, if their users link to the pirated contents.

SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act), among the two acts, is the more extreme bill though both the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate bills are similar. SOPA is for foreign infringing sites that are committing or facilitating copyright infringement. However, PIPA is only for the websites that have no significant use than copyright infringement.

HIPAA Implementation Supports Nation's Health Care System

I am a creature of habit. How many of you are not?

I guess the answer would probably be ‘No One’. As everybody knows it better that each one of us is a creature of habit for some or the other thing. And it becomes difficult for us to change our habits. Though we know that acquiring new things by leaving our since-long habits make us more productive and offer us a qualitative approach for our work, we become reluctant to change our habits for doing things.

Same is the case with Doctors. As none of us are in favour of change a number of times, Doctors’ reluctance for change has become a prime reason for why they are not taking on EHR application. EMR application and EHR application makes practice management systems easy in healthcare industry. EMR application improves patient health care records in terms of quality and accuracy.

Advanced EMR application development and EHR application development help healthcare practitioners to maintain patient records with ease as well as keep track of their health insurances. Moreover, it prevents the protected health information from being accessed by unauthorized sources.

In tandem with this, HIPAA Implementation also proves as a great help in regulating and maintaining health insurances and electronic medical records. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), which was enacted in the year 1996 by the United State Congress and was signed by the then President Mr. Bill Clinton, offers solutions for the issues within the medical field. HIPPA addresses two distinct issues within the healthcare industry. Title I of HIPAA regulates health insurance coverage for employees and their families at the time they leave their company. Title II of HIPAA, addresses privacy, security and quality standards for electronic medical records (EMR).

Are you still loath to HIPAA Implementation?
