Motion Computing Case Study: Dr. Kyle Oh - Sports Medicine Practice
Overview With a background in computer programming, Dr. Oh is constantly searching for ways to automate his office and make it run more smoothly. While his office has been paperless for more than two years, he needed a better solution for data entry, patient record retrieval, scheduling, prescription processing and other daily work processes. Originally, Dr. Oh had desktop workstations in each exam room to perform these tasks, but HIPAA privacy guidelines required him to remove them. He then began to use laptops, but found that carrying the device from room to room was cumbersome due to his work style of standing or walking for most of the day. The heavy weight and clamshell design of the laptop, not to mention the difficulties of typing on a keyboard while standing, made it an inconvenient option. In addition, the use of a desktop or laptop during an examination took the doctor’s attention away from where it should be: the patient. The advent of the Tablet PC appealed to Dr. Oh as both a doctor and software developer.
