Mobile Clinical Computing for MEDITECH

Hospital IT Departments are crushed between an array of parallel and intersecting forces when it comes to managing desktop, rolling mobile, and fully mobile client devices for healthcare/clinical computing. Mobile Clinical Computing initiatives are often critical to the success of EMR, CPOE, and BMV applications deployments. End users want support for a variety of devices, from their smart phones to their home desktops, regardless of operating system, network connection, or form factor. Administrators are worried about the endless queue of help desk calls on client devices and the difficulty in retiring these queues inherent in the complexities of each individual device configuration. Government, payers, and consumers want privacy, security, and audit control. Clinicians want all of that with session mobility, easy sign-in, and context sensitivity.

The MEDITECH Solutions Group within Dell Services has proactively collaborated with MEDITECH and VMware to develop a fully packaged virtual desktop solution for the MEDITECH community we call Mobile Clinical Computing for MEDITECH.
