AMA: Mobiles help docs give IT a second chance

“The American Medical Association’s AMNews just reported on the Manhattan Research report from last month that found 64 percent of doctors now use smartphones. The article, however, includes some interesting insights from the report’s authors as well as from some doctors who have led the trend by using smartphones to access medical records and more.
“You have to make it very easy for the average doctor,” Denis Harris, MD, a solo orthopedic surgeon from Washington, D.C. told the AMA. Harris reportedly runs most of his practice from his iPhone. Dr. Harris, who is 63 years old, told the AMA that many physicians who have previously avoided health IT adoption are revisiting the technology now that some of it has gone mobile.”
