Use of palmtop medical content and point-of-care decision tools has grown tremendously during the past year. Millions of dollars are spent annually on both hardware and medical content, and most of that is coming out of individual user's wallets. What are the issues involved in evaluating, selecting and licensing palmtop content for corporate users? What are the advantages? Barriers? What about variant platforms for handheld content? Security and ethical issues? Bring along your lunch and join speaker Rita Vine, President of Workingfaster.com, who has been tracking some pilot projects in medical handheld applications and use. She shares her observations about this critical content delivery channel and suggests its future development and direction.
Handhelds and health care attendees are invited to sample best of breed e-content products and services in the Showcase. You'll experience good practice applications and knowledgeable representatives will be on hand to answer your questions and hear your feedback. All free of charge. Bring along your Showcase Passport and you'll be eligible to win a weekend in New York, a digital camera and more!
