Webahn, Inc. announces the launch of two new iPhone Apps for physicians. Capzule for its online Electronic Medical Records service Capzule.com and Accent, a voice recording application, for its online transcription service OvernightScribe.com.
Capzule enables physicians to access patient information instantly, while away from the clinic. It also has the capability to send messages, add notes, prescribe medications and write orders. Iqbal Boxwala, M.D. of Hematology and Oncology Consultants, P.C., a group practice of seven physicians located in Royal Oak, Mich. explains that, "Capzule has greatly improved our physicians quality of life because they can now access charts at anytime from anywhere."
Accent allows physicians to dictate patient notes and letters on iPhone and send them to OvernightScribe.com for transcription. "We are upgrading the tools that physicians rely on most to access and update patient data," Vinu Nair, Webahn CEO says, "Browsing charts on desktops and dictating onto telephone systems or digital recorders make less sense, when you have a mobile device like iPhone which can do much more and much better." Accent lets users edit audio files and tag dictations with key information. It also features search capability and the ability to access dictations from desktop PCs over WiFi.
Webahn, Inc. (www.webahn.com) is a privately-held company incorporated in Michigan. The company has been providing clinical documentation solutions since 2000, first with OvernightScribe.com which is used by clinics throughout the nation, as well as Michigan State University HealthTeam and Henry Ford Health Systems. Capzule.com was later launched with the goal to provide affordable electronic medical records to solo and small practices and now serving clinics nationwide.
