What will I learn?
- Immunization Management
Our AI technology scans images and PDFs, automatically parsing and entering shot dates on a student record, saving countless hours of data entry.
- Medication Reconciliation
Prevent mistakes with medication workflows that handle every case, and combine the ease of a notebook with the auditability of an EHR. Create a role for non-nurse faculty to give medications without seeing other PHI.
