About Medical Clinical IT Groupware

What it is – how it works

By Staff Reporters

According to Bill Crounse MD of Microsoft,

clinical medical groupware is a new and evolving model for the development and deployment of health IT platforms and applications, the characteristics of which include use of the Internet and the Web as a platform, explicit design for health data exchange and online communication among providers and patients/consumers, a modular or component architecture upon which applications can be aggregated to meet specific clinical and workflow tasks; while allowing interface standards and protocols for data exchange to emerge in a market-driven manner.  

Distribution Platforms

Clinical medical groupware applications can be distributed as software-as-as-service, and are intended to support today’s mobile health care environment by supplying the right information, at the right time and the right place.
