PrimeCare Uses InterBase to Reduce Healthcare Costs While Enhancing Patient Treatment Quality
InterBase Is the Foundation For New Off the Shelf and Internet Versions of Patient Management System, Improving Quality and Efficiency of Healthcare
SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif., March 1 /PRNewswire/ -- PrimeCare Systems Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary of OCG Technology, Inc., (OTC Bulletin Board: OCGT - news) offers the PrimeCare(TM) Patient Management System, PrimeCare(TM) on the Web, and CodeComplier which reduce healthcare costs and remove opportunities for error in diagnosis, creating multiple benefits for the patient. These applications use the InterBase embedded database, allowing physicians to see up to 66% more patients and eliminating dictation and transcription costs by having patients respond to diagnostic computer questions before even seeing the doctor.
InterBase is the foundation for more than 100,000 diagnostic questions in the questionnaire-based PrimeCare(TM) Patient Management System, which is reviewed and updated by the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City. InterBase provides the database used to store confidential records generated by the system, and is used internally for continual updates to the questionnaire base with the most recent information from the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. InterBase is also at the heart of PrimeCare on the Web, a secure Internet version of the PrimeCare Patient Management System, enabling patients to answer the questionnaires via the Web before entering the physician's office.
''Our company's goal is to remove opportunities for error in the doctor/patient interaction, and with the help of InterBase we are able to successfully accomplish that goal,'' said W. Jordan Fitzhugh, executive vice president, PrimeCare Systems, Inc. ''The patient interview, which provides 70-90% of the information used in diagnosis, is where many errors are made. However, by using our questionnaires, physicians can get extensive, better, and in many cases, more accurate data.''
''This is a perfect example of how InterBase constitutes the ideal solution for business-critical, embedded database applications that require tremendous reliability, low maintenance and extremely high performance,'' said Alison McEwen, General Manager of the InterBase product line. ''We are extremely pleased with both PrimeCare applications because they showcase the superior dependability of InterBase through a system that is responsible for addressing one of the most basic human needs, our health.''
For 12 years InterBase has continually provided stable relational database solutions to meet the business-critical embedded database needs of VARs and Application Developers. InterBase continues to be the preferred solution for embedded database requirements because of its superior engine technology, advanced development features, ease of installation and maintenance, and small installed footprint. InterBase customers include Motorola, Societe General, Lumley Insurance, Sage US, Labor Ready, Sales Logix and 1-800-Serve-Em.
