Well, last week I installed a wireless router that is isolated from the network. It is just for the patients. They love it. And, it makes the time go more quickly for them. It serves two purposes for that very reason. It's very cool and costs next to nothing.
My patients are now able to schedule allergy injections on line through Appointmentquest. To help facilitate this, or just to pass the time in the waiting room, I've considered providing wireless internet access at the office. My network E2000 Linksys router can be set to also "give visitors simple and password-protected internet access" ostensibly keeping the "private network" separate and secure. Any thoughts as to is this truly an option that won't compromise security of the office network, HIPAA, etc?
