MDPad agrees with the authors of the IOM Study, that in this day and age of computers and the Internet. it is a tragedy that health care is stuck in the age of pen and paper. MDPad is the first hand-held computer that integrates thoroughly into a physician's day without significant change in the physician's work habits. MDPad allows the physician to harness the power of technology to provide better care for their patients, track the progress of their patients, educate themselves better and save money for themselves, their patients and the health care system. MDPad reduces many of the most time consuming tasks of a physician's day.
