Jam Software
Reviewed by
Danny Silver
JAM Software pioneered medical records software for the
Macintosh way back in 1986 only a short while after the Mac
was born!
Their medical records software, M.E.D.ôPatient, is
one of the easiest packages on the market and is the only
one which allows both text and graphics to be stored in an
individual patient medical record. It allows users to easily
customize the way their records are kept, the letters,
forms, and checklists they create and use every day and
indeed it can be used by all healthcare professionals, not
just doctors.
Information is entered as text in free format (anyway you
like) with virtually no constraints. One can categorize (or
"flag") selected text as belonging to major categories such
as "treatment", "diagnosis", etc and then the flagged data
can be instantly ported to your preformatted letters, forms,
etc. One can "draw" onto human outlines at various
magnifications to record rashes, wounds, marks, deformities,
etc and then refer to these graphics for visual comparison
later on.
All information entered into a "consultation" is locked
in and archived once the patient's record is closed so as to
prevent subsequent alterations, thus fulfilling medicolegal
requirements. Password protection is incorporated so as to
prevent unauthorised access to medical records and various
levels of protection are possible. Using Apple Remote Access
or Timbuktu it is possible to access one's medical records
from elsewhere using one's laptop or another computer within
a hospital.
Overall, this software deserves a lookin, not just
because it is currently Macintosh-only but because it is
excellent!
