Ya know what Wayne, Now I'm the moron here..... Nancy uses her OLD little Toshiba Convertable Tablet (Also an XP Tablet edition computer) from 2004 that she used Prior to AC.. We never put AC on that machine and intentionally don't use it very much because it is our "Archieve" copy of the old Program ChartWare for her first year of charting or so.... This computer is not like a totum in our office... Yet almost forgotten about as well... Almost never have to go to it...
Now I really wonder about running the two together on the same computer.... That is very interesting.... Now I'm straining to remember that perhaps this is the reason we stuck with the Old Toshiba for the 2nd tests anyway... Along with building one continues database of tests on one computer and all with the better named file system as well....
Any how, Nancy sends me little AC notes with the patient name attached to let me know if and when she ran one so I know to do a MidMark Back-Up.... Cool System... Oh, I had quite a scar the other day as I was so over done on 40 mgs of Predizone that I was out of breath from like a dozen stairs and sweating like a pig after helping my son simply tie his skates and do the first two sets of straps on his goalie pads... Ulcerative Colitis (and yes finally getting under control and tappering down, at 30 right now).... I was in a cold dry hockey rink where the other parents are wearing mid-weight jackets and I'm sweating Buckets, not feeling right in mind or body either... my T-Shirt's shoulders were Drenched from wiping my face on it....
So after practice just to calm us both down, Nancy and I went to the office and she hooked me up to the ECG.... Every few years we run one on me.... well even this "Pumped Up" and all out of wack.... my tracing was not just good or fine.... It was a perfect Identical overlay via the system's ability to do such. So NO changes in my heart health whatsoever in like 3 or 4 years even while stressed to the hilt thank goodness....
Cost a whole lot of bucks but this is the reason to own one and they certainly are the Right Machine to own for an EMR modest tech office like all of ours here.... Prices need to come down and incentives for these kinds of "additions" should be allowed and encouraged as well.... Without Meaningless Use, as this is Meaningful and Appropriate Use of Tech....
Sorry about the brain fart there...
