I just was at a conference this past week and Valant now runs on a mac, too.

Depending on how old your Mac is, you may still be able to run Windows natively without new hardware.

I’m interested if any of the MAC compatible EMR’s have an EKG component, both acquiring and reading. I have yet to find a solution for my mobile practice. I purchased a compact, mobile EKG machine with great read software, but it only intermittently works on my mac notebook using VM ware. My IT consultants have advised that I make the switch to microsoft, which of course, requires all new hardware. Any suggestions?

Are there any EMR’s out there that would work for a mental health inpatient facility?

HealthFusion was founded and is still run by physicians, and MediTouch EHR was designed and built with their direct input. As for your McDonald's argument, I'm not too sure where you're going with it. But if UI lagged 15 years behind the technology then we'd still be commenting on Prodigy message boards and EHRs would not exist. HealthFusion's medical and engineering teams work in unison, constantly upgrading software and increasing iPad compatibility; routinely enhancing the user interface, and increasing the overall speed and performance of MediTouch EHR. MediTouch is easy to intuitive, interoperable, and easy to modify. If you truly use MediTouch EHR, and are having difficulties with the software we would be more than happy to help as always. There are live, free, daily training webinars where you can get one-on-one assistance and have all of your questions answered. The schedule is available on our social media pages, or contact us directly with a support case.

Hello,
I am joining an Ob/Gyn practice that is set up with Allscript’s EMR on PC’s. I would like to use a MAC in this office. Any advice?
Thanks,
Jamie Ramsey, MD

Thanks for your comment. While Safari can be used on Windows, it is specifically licensed under Apple. Our intent was not to call Safari the only proprietary web browser. It is simply Apple’s only propriety browser.

I have to take exception to your singling out of Safari as “Apple’s proprietary web browser”. On what basis would you say that?
It is simply ridiculous to call Safari proprietary when virtually every browser is. Is Firefox not? Is Internet Explorer not? Is Opera not?
Safari is offered on Windows as well as Mac, and iOS devices

I’ve been using Meditouch/Healthfusion for almost a year. (This EMR clearly was not designed with input from Physicians who actually practice clinical medicine, I’m suspicious if they even completed an internship.) User Interface (like all EMRs) lags 15 years behind the technology that McDonald’s uses for its checkout registers.Not intuitive to use. Difficult to modify. If this is the best EMR to run on an IPAD or MacOS, then its just a matter of (a little time) for a better option to be out soon.
