Handwriting recognition for EMR

EMR- if you have a tablet PC to record your EMR notes, you may have the capability of hand writing recognition. If your tablet PC contains handwriting recognition, you can open any of the notes boxes in the EMR and hand write a note. The ClinicPro EMR will include your handwritten note in the EMR report except that it will be typed out just as any other note. In addition, you also have the option of opening DragonDictate or any other dictation software and dictating directly into a note. The EMR is built to allow customized Notes for those situations that do not fit into a template environment.

Vista Home

Vista Home: we are again urging you to avoid the Vista home operating system. We cannot guarantee that it will connect with your network appropriately; we know that there will be difficulty using the EMR with it. Microsoft has are ready indicated that they will be abandoning the Vista operating system in the near future. Because there have been so many complaints, they are still offering a free "downgrade" to XP. Take it! Vista is very slow and prone to "freezing up." The home edition is not meant to run a business; that is why it is called the "home" edition. Vista does offer a business edition. It is still slow but it networks more appropriately.
