Emdat is pleased to announce the release of Emdat Mobile for Android. The Emdat Mobile application is already very popular on the iPhone, and we are excited to be able to deliver the same easy-to-use application for Android powered devices. The Android app allows physicians to view their patient schedule, dictate, review, and approve transcription. In addition, we’ve introduced a few new features to this version. Android users will be able to see their schedules in different views, review transcription in any part of the workflow, and dictate with Insert, Overwrite and Append options. Emdat is dedicated to the continued development of our Mobile applications — we look forward to bringing these features and more to both platforms in the near future.

You can download and install Emdat Mobile for Android from the Android Market.

New features of the latest edition of Emdat Mobile:

A recent article in the November issue of For the Record, Healthcare Jumps on the Mobile Bandwagon, examines physicians using smart devices to help make the care process run more smoothly. In an effort to increase flexibility in physicians' workflow, healthcare facilities and companies are developing iPhone apps that interface with scheduling and patient information systems and/or allow providers to dictate into their smartphones.

Emdat Mobile, Emdat's app for the iPhone and the Windows Mobile platform, is among the companies mentioned. Kevin Saliga discusses Emdat Mobile's ability to allow physicians to download their patient schedule and record their dictation directly into the mobile device.

Emdat Mobile for iPhone is reviewed in a post today on iMedicalApps.

Blogger Felasfa Wodajo, MD notes that he's been an Emdat user for 3 years, and finds that the app is "a very nice advance over using a digital dictaphone and special software to upload dictations."

In case his readers (his primary audience is doctors) don't know about Emdat, Dr Wodajo provides details about Emdat's medical dictation and transcription suite of software applications, mentioning, specifically, the potential impact of functionality like DaRT on the healthcare industry. He also cites our recently released white paper, "Facilitate EMR Success."
