Our Company's Mission
Our Company's History:
Medical Decisions Software, Inc. came into existence in 1985 after developing Bibtools, a shareware software product for processing generic medical bibliographies long before EndNote or Reference Manager. The company was incorporated in 1999 for the purpose of developing commercial, rather than shareware, medical software.
Our Mission:
Our company's main mission is to improve medical documentation through software solutions. Timely documentation of assessments of patients and outcomes of treatments can only help improve patient care and clinical research. Although five of the top ten reasons for malpractice: ( 1. Weak medical records, 2. Inadequate history taking, 3. Inattentive follow-up, 4. Overlooked lab, and 5. Medication errors) may be reduced by properly designed software, even in the best of hands there will still be error. Our company is looking at efficiency and error reduction in building medical documentation software to save clinicians documentation time. Through better indexing and priority in clinical care documentation, we are trying to improve both clinician efficiency and quality of care.
Our first product, CodeDoc, is what we call a Docutimer that automatically time stamps from the internal PDA clock each event or group of events a user documents thereby saving the user handwriting time. Since time is one of the most important factors to outcome especially in arrests, we have designed and have a provisional patent for a docutimer to help capture events and to help with timely assessments in codes or emergencies. In preliminary tests, users have been able to document more in less time and produced a print report in real-time for any one to read without worrying about legibility. CodeDoc has is own updatable drug data base that allows the user to create their own drug databases. Users may add and subtract medications and update information about each medication such as dosing. CodeDoc has a dedicated narrow focus of code blue or critical care emergencies supporting BLS, ALCS, PALS, and ATLS. However with help of users we plan to improve this product and make other PDA documentation products. We are currently working on CodeDoc version 1.65 and have another program under development.
