CabMD vs MyLingual MD

We re-invented OHIP Billing when we created Ontario’s first and most advanced OHIP Billing web application service. Now CabMD is available as a convenient and intuitive iOS Mobile App. MOBILITY: Doctors are on the move. Whether you are a specialist who roams the hospital hallways, or a family physician who jumps between examination rooms, CabMD untethers you from your desktop computer and empowers you to efficiently complete your OHIP Billing at the point of care. QUICK BILL: Doctors are busy. We know that you don’t have the time to be a slave to manual data entry. That’s why CabMD allows you to automatically populate patient demographic information from hospital stickers or the patient’s OHIP card. And thanks to the iPhone’s GPS capabilities, we can automatically determine your location to populate the service location and master number fields. PATIENT ROSTER: Patients come first. While we recognize that OHIP Billing is an important and necessary evil, we also understand that it should not take priority over clinical care. CabMD allows you to maintain a Patient Roster, which allows you to keep track of, and to bill for Hospital Inpatients who are either admitted under your care, or who you are following in consultation. With the Patient Roster, you can add a claim at any time for a patient, or you can use the Inpatient Claim Wizard to create claims for their entire hospital stay.

Bilingual medical students and physicians often find themselves encountering patients that share the same non-English language. Ideally, these healthcare practitioners would also be familiar with medical terminology in the patient’s mother tongue -- but this is not always the case. While many medical students and clinicians may be conversationally fluent in a patient’s native language, they may not be knowledgeable or comfortable conversing through a patient encounter. MyLingual MD is the educational tool that aspires to address this issue: advance the medical fluency of bilingual healthcare practitioners to strengthen communication in the patient’s native language, consequently optimizing health outcomes. The app allows healthcare practitioners to learn and practice communicating with patients in a language in which they are conversationally fluent. The app’s current version allows for users to learn and practice medical terminology in these other languages through flashcards. Future versions of the app may include other modes of learning, such as voice-over recordings and simulated conversations with patients that speak these languages. ----------------------------------------------- The University of Toronto is the distributor of this application but it does not warrant or assume any legal liability or responsibility for the completeness, or usefulness of any information contained in the application or any websites linked from this application.
