NORTH PALM BEACH, FL--(Marketwired - Oct 18, 2013) -
EncounterCare Solutions (PINKSHEETS: ECSL) announced today that its
subsidiary, CyberCare Health Network, Inc. ("CyberCare"), has
released a mobile application allowing both patients and care
providers to take pictures of wounds using a cell phone. The wound
image is securely uploaded directly into the patient's electronic
medical record where the clinician can attach the image to an
initial consultation or wound progress report.
At any given time, almost six million Americans suffer from
chronic, non-healing wounds caused by diabetes, poor circulation or
other conditions.?The CyberCare Wound Care program, a component of
the Electronic House Call System, has been designed to assist
clinicians in reducing the number of days to heal wounds by
utilizing its comprehensive medical record to track patients from
referral through discharge.
The mobile application is currently available for free on Google
Play for Android based phones and for the iPhone at the Apple
store. The application has been submitted for use on Windows based
phones. The use of the application requires a contract with
EncounterCare.?
Andy Castellanos, CEO of Primary Wound Care Specialists, located
in Miami, FL, said, "Sometimes the most elegant solution to a
problem is something simple. The ability to take a quality wound
picture using a cell phone whether the patient is at home or in a
clinic allows us to be much more efficient in tracking the progress
of the wound. Patients can notify us and take a picture to help us
triage any problems with the healing process."
"The release of our mobile application for wound care is the
first phase of moving our entire Electronic House Call platform to
mobile devices," stated Chris Doherty Executive Vice President of
CyberCare Health Network. "We expect to release the cell phone/iPad
based version of the Electronic House Call before the end of the
year.?These additional applications will focus on Chronic
Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Heart Disease and Diabetes
Management."
