MD Keyboard vs MedCall Advisors

The MD Keyboard extension for iOS is specially engineered with doctors and clinicians in mind. Add this keyboard from your Settings and it will become available as a normal keyboard for use in most apps such as Email, Notes and Messaging. The MD Keyboard allows you to search our vast medical database with cognitive AI and returned results can be entered into the text you are typing so it's like having an expert at your fingertips at any time from any app! With a free @Point of Care account, you can even earn CME credits right from the keyboard or type links to such materials into your text stream. On top of that, MD Keyboard provides a dynamic medical dictionary for word prediction and completion, including thousands of drug names. Also, we added more than the usual key alternates (long hold a key), giving you shortcuts to common medical abbreviations and scientific symbols. There is also Utility Mode where we will offer various specialized tools, starting with a simple calculator that will type numerical results into your field so you don't have to switch to a calculator app to do basic calculations. Also included currently is a BMI calculator and an Ideal Body Weight calculator. We want this to become the go-to tool for any doctor, from any app.

The MedCall Advisors Physician application is designed to manage workflow and facilitate real-time tele- triage for patients experiencing an injury, or illness. The application will monitor the status of available physicians who participate in a nationwide physician network dedicated to tele-triage. All participating physicians are board certified in Emergency Medicine and are a member of MedCall’s physician network. All physicians must have the MedCall Advisors Physician application downloaded on their smart device. Each physician must log into the application to display availability status which connects to the MedCall Call Center patient portal. Telehealth calls are answered by Call Coordinators (CC) who navigate the call. CC’s will identify which state a patient is calling from and will check the physician availability status for a physician licensed in that state. The CC will send a text message though the Physician application to an available physician notifying them that a patient is on the line. As soon as the coordinator gathers relevant patient intake information, they will merge the patient and physician into a virtual consultation room. If the physician requests, the patient can press the photo option to upload a photograph into the patient portal. The physician can also request the video option to become initiated. The photos will self-delete after transfer. It is critical the application reside on a stable an efficient platform to seamlessly manage the flow of real time care when medical events occur.
