MINNEAPOLIS - July 20, 2004 - QRS Diagnostic, leader in innovative design and development of software-based medical devices, announces the release of Office Medic 5.0, its patient information management system. The 5.0 version complements QRS computer card medical devices to support real-time diagnostic testing. A new software platform, developed with .NET tools, Office Medic 5.0 works with QRS devices to provide caregivers with the flexibility and mobility to perform diagnostic tests and securely manage the results on standard PDAs, Pocket PCs and laptop computers at the point of care.
QRS designed Office Medic 5.0 to address the security and confidentiality requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
